[QUOTE="Allnight, post: 617927, member: 14944"] The saddle bags are dual-walled: there is an outer shell and an inner husk, I call it. I'm just digging out the service manual to see if it says anything, but does anybody know if there's a way to separate them? Temporarily, of course, I want to put them back together. I'm trying to decide how to mount an Admore Light system to the bags, and if I can avoid drilling through the inner "chamber" I feel more like it might stay water tight. [URL="https://www.admorelighting.com/index.php?page=products/index.php&subpage=16"]This is the kit.[/URL] Just arrived today. I'm thinking that I'd like to mount them so that the center of each strip is at the rear-facing point of the inner half. Does that make sense? Here's a picture of what I mean: [IMG]https://farm4.static.flickr.com/3470/3753553969_a922d69756.jpg[/IMG] You can see the 18 gauge or 20 gauge lamp cord hanging from the light strip. A small hole needs to be drilled to run that through the inside of the bag, up to the connector to the bike, which I want to mount somewhere under the release handle. Anyone done anything like this before? [/QUOTE]
