I just acquired a 2010 FX 450 and I am trying to make it street legal. I ordered a Number Plate Carrier (81208016000) for an FE
and it looks like it is close, but not exact. I wanted to see if this would fit before ordering lights, etc. The 2 middle screws line right up but the inserts at the front don't seem to work with a
standard M6 flange bolt. They start to bind like the pitch is wrong. I don't want to force them and strip the insert. The 2 at the back look like they would screw into the fender somehow.
On the FX there is no hole for the rear screws. If I have to drill, then so be it.
Does anyone know if a whole new fender for an FE (Part# 8120801310028) would fit on an FX?
Also, I am wondering where the wires for the light should route? Again, I may need to drill a hole somewhere to make it work.
If possible, can someone take a picture of the underside of an FE rear fender so I can see how it is supposed to be?
Thanks!
