New OEM Vendors Wanted

Well fanatics I think it is time once again to try to get another new GM OEM Vendor to step up to the plate, right? We have just seen that happen with the GM Windbreaks, so do you think we need another Vendor to step up and retool and start to remake those great soft side saddle bags for our members again??? What do you think?

Just take a look at what one eBay-er is already getting bids on and there are still more than 2 + days left to bid! $930.00

They're OK, but they're not worth more than $ 100 - $ 150 IMO.

That is totally preposterous!

Notice that there are no photos of the bags with the lids up exposing the front free edges. It appears to me that these bags may already be at least slightly warped. Heck, then the buyer of these $1,000 bags can go out and spend an extra $5.00 or so to do the cheap fix/reinforcement of the front free edges.

There are still deals out there if you are patient. Two weeks ago I paid $200.00 total for a brand new set of hard bags and a cargo net from someone on Ebay.

Your welcome but I cant take credit for that one. Somebody showed me their milk crate at the MV run and I thought what a good idea. I think it was Nelson but I'm not sure.

I got a white one and I'm going to get some of that spray paint that adheres to plastic and paint it red of course.

You might want to hold off on buying some those over priced accessories for a little while longer. We are already hearing about other vendors who might be stepping up to the plate to make up some of those discontinued parts and or accessories that we are wanting very soon.

hard saddle bags

My used 04 came fully loaded with the hard saddle bags. Their ok and expensive but I just bought the horizontal tail gate bag (not sure the item number) for $220 including shipping on e-bay. I like the soft better so I'd be interested because the had ones just aren't that functional. To much work to open.
