Anyone used these, do you need to mod the tank in anyway? Anyone got any pics of them fitted?

The transmission cover is a glue on. The exhaust armour plate you need to pop the mount that holds the exhaust end in piece as well as the original exhaust pipe cover.

Cheers, I can see where the two long bits go I think, inside the tracks at the front? But I don't know about the other part, do you have a pic of it the a tank?

Before you fit the two transmission covers I suggest you do a dry run and just slide them into position because you may find that to get a good fit you need to clip off the end and file a curve into the leading end.
Certainly all the ones I have fitted if you don't adjust them they don't fit behind the towing shackles.
