gpopvet, I have been using Hot Toppers since I got my first HD Heritage in 1995. I think they are the best. They last forever. The ones I put on my handlebar clamp are original from and still look like new, as do most of the other ones. I have 65,000 miles on the Heritage and they have been on a few long vacations with a lot of exposure to very high temps and no problems. As soon as I got my 09 SEUC I ordered a set. The customer service from the company is great. Two of the best things I like about them is that they can be removed for a repair and reinstalled ( on occassion I have used a small dab of silicone after having taken them off two or 3 times to fix something) secondly unlike chrome bolts you will never see the little rusty spots in the center of the bolt where the hex drive goes. I know some people cover them with chrome the chrome inserts , but again that is more money. As you can tell I am a fan of Hot Toppers. My favorite thing about them is that you can buy a set and have them installed in less than 30 minutes. Good Luck CAHDBIKER
