    Default saddle bags

    I just had a set of Can Am bags installed on my 2014 STS by a dealer. I did not want the color panels. There are holes on the lid where ,I think, the panels would be screwed onto the lid. Did the dealer miss plugging the holes or is there a piece missing.
    Any thoughts on how to deal with these holes. If left open water will go directly into the bags.

    Prolly best to get panel. All other seals will be ugly & need constant checking/upkeep.
    If anything seal from inside out (most effictive seals) with a silicon. But clean with alcohol(through & around)first. Might get away with covering uglyness with decals¿ just a thought.

    Default bags

    well it appears as if the cost of the bags do not include the cover panels. asking dealer to see if they can get them sent to me. awaiting their answer.

    Did the dealer offer any explanation as to why those holes were never plugged?

    Default holes

    the holes are for the screws that hold the panel in place. why it was not known that i had to order the panel when i ordered the bags is another question.
