Looking to add these Passenger Floor Board Covers to the Trike. Anyone drilled holes into their aluminum boards to install these? Tips, issues, success stories? As always any input will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much

Yes, the instructions will tell you to remove the boards from the bike to drill, I do not
I tape the covers on, center punch and drill
Use a hand screw driver to run the screws in, done deal
Run some tape on the drill bit so you do not drill the holes too deep

Thanks buddy
That sounds pretty good and reasonably easy. Ill buy a new bit so I know its nice and sharp. The boards are mostly in the down position but I really like the way the driver boards are surrounded in chrome trim and the passenger boards look unfinished. These are a classy addition

The bottoms drill easy and fast, take it slow with a new bit and you will be fine, the tape on the bit is a plus so you do not drill too deep in and hit the rubber
I suspect you are pretty good at installing your bling and should not have any problems

I did mine very easy to do follow the instructions and make sure you use the right size drill bit.

OK not too bad ... installation went well. The 2nd one was much easier than the 1st but they came out super. A nice addition to the flow of the front and rear boards. If any of you guys are adding these, just skip the "mark them, remove them, use a punch" method (A La The 1st One) Just set the cover in place securely, drill a shallow starter dip, remove the cover and finish drilling. Much easier this way. Gotta credit the Mrs who watched me lose it a little trying to start the 1st holes.

Bought mine off Ebay sans logo which I can live without.Chrome quality comparable to HD for half the price. Probably both are made in the same factory in Red China.
