DP Luggage Rack instructions?

Didn't someone JUST post a link to the DP Luggage Rack instructions where you can actually see the photos? Can someone direct me? Couldn't find it through search and damn these pics that came with the kit are dark.

Hmm...maybe I was thinking of the instructions for the DP tank bags....

What are you trying to figure out? It's a real basic install.

Ya, after reading just the basic text it does appear there's nothing to it. Haven't had time to look at the bike even yet and just didn't want to leave out a spacer or anything but doesn't seem like an issue now. In fact I may just delete this thread altogether.

Thinking about one also.

It was a piece of cake for me too. I was surprised that the entire tail section (minus the tail light) gets replaced by the rack. it does reduce the sexiness of the bike a bit though.

Yeah fastened by cable ties. That's what I installed on my wife's scooter last year. Ugly as hell but very practical

What the instructions don't say (at least on my bike) is the holes on the rack aren't spaced right for the frame and will need a little ovaling to fit.
I like the look of the DP rack on my Hyper.

I just assume that's the case with all DP stuff I like mine too, it'd look weird with just the little wing at this point.

Weird, mine aligned perfectly. I just had to slide the plate for the seat hole to align.
