Review Summary:
As with others, I had to struggle a bit to get the top bolt attached properly. Some other reviewers have said they ended up installing without the brass washer. This washer is necessary for the quick release to work properly, however, since it allows that top mounting peg to rotate as the windshield is popped on or off. Be aware that you will need a somewhat specialized tool - a 4 mm socket mounted allen wrench that can mount onto a torque wrench. Also note that torque specs are given in INCH/POUNDS for the bracket and FOOT/POUNDS for the windshield! The chrome is excellent and looks great on my Cruiser. I am looking forward to being able to afford a few other size Switchblade windshields
