[MWV1500_imp]

Just ordered this rack from Samurider last week, showed up in 5 days. Apparently no longer in stock domestically (US).

Just test fitting here:

Replacing rear garnish bracket on both sides:

Lining up forward mount hole hardware, rack, flange spacer, garnish, OEM spacer... Trick is to leave everything loose until ALL bolts are in position.

This was a bit of a PITA - Turn Signal housing interferes w/rear bolts. Figured out how to lift the rack up enough to clear those and start the bolts into the openings:

All bolts loosely installed. Time to snug everything down!

...and we're done!
