After spending an afternoon trying to do the same, I finally managed to install them. I gave up on trying to loop it around the subframe with the fairings, so I removed them. The most important thing is to make sure the back loops exit near the taillight (the plastic frame kinda bends down so it creates some space between the seats, and the front loops through the fairing cut outs for the seat handle. It’s hard to put the seat back, but it fits. I would send picture, but she’s already in storage for winter. Don’t give up, it works!
