Ok,  first off, I learned a huge lesson with this teardown....  Take pictures of what I tear apart!!!!

Well, I am just curious if anyone has pictures of the pods and where the rubber grommets go!

Any help is appreciated!

You can see the rubber grommets (#2's) and metal collar (#1) here.

There are only three attachment points. 

If you take them apart into pieces unnecessarily, it gets more ..... entertaining.

And only tighten them down snug, helps prevent cracking the plastic.

And be aware or beware as there are 2 different bolt lengths. You DO NOT want to know HOW I know this.  uglystupid2 RIDE SAFE.

The rubber grommet that goes into the side hole of the crashbar on mine seems to always want to fall out on the right side. Maybe you have the same problem.
