Fix for IQ side panels??

duece1 · Nov 22, 2009

I have read a thread on a fix for 05-06 IQ side panels in the past on here. The fix utilized some aluminum to repair the chizy plastic tabs that break off. Done a search but can not find the original thread. Any one have any pics of thier repairs?? Not really sure why but the plastics on my sled always seem to break!!

I remember that thread and think it was Mule. Might try sending him a pm.

you get those little metal fasteners that the yamaha sleds have, you spin 1/2 or 1/4 turn and comes off

Thank you. Pics would be great. I did send a PM to Mule to see if it was his original post.

i broke my tabs off as well..then i used DZUS fastners...they are GREAT..not the best pic of them, but they are only a 1/4 turn and hold them on VERY tight...been on since last feb and no issues as all..

they are just below the OEM hood straps....i also have the extra hood straps on the side..to hold it all down tight...

Ok I took some pics for you. Vary simple to install and they work great.

This is a good source for the DZUS fasteners. A dealer will charge big bucks. Many head and anodizing / color options here. CLICKY
