Watch as Brad takes you through the steps of installing our Heritage Stiffener Kit.
So when we got home I did some research and found a few companies that offered saddlebag restoration kits. The kits were all pretty much the same. They consisted of plastic pieces that fit between the seams of your saddlebags, but the only difference was all the companies offered different style lid inserts.

I was mostly interested in Leather Lid Inserts because their lid was form fitted and not flat. Plus, their inserts were about $20 cheaper, and we all like to save money in this economy.
I called them at about 11 pm at night, I had no idea considering they were on the eastern time clock. Either way, the owner of the company picked the phone up and talked to me for a good 10 minutes. He seemed very well spoken and convinced me that his inserts were the best. After the call, I went ahead and ordered the inserts.
About a week later I received a package in the mail labeled 'Leather Lid Inserts.' I got excited and ripped the box open to find some goodies. Not only did I receive the saddlebag inserts, but I also received a shiny new Lapel Pin, same biker magazines & a patch. After placing the goodies on the counter, I ran to the garage and started getting to the work.
The package came with an easy to follow set of instruction, it took me about an hour to install the inserts. The hardest part was getting the side inserts to fit, I ended up snipping off a few pieces of the inserts and then they fell into place.
