Sidepanel Bracket and Bracket Kit
for
Mk3 Roadster, Left Side

The current price for the bracket only (part # 06-6330/B) is $75.00 and for the complete kit (part # 06-6330/BK) is $95.14, as of 02/12/21.

If your 1975 MK3 has had its big black air box removed or you want to remove it for a better filtering system, you will need a way to mount your left hand side cover. We have milled up an aluminum bracket that takes the place of the bracket on the air box and uses the same dzus fastener system as the original. The bracket bolts to two rubber mounts (the same rubber mounts used on your oil tank) that fit into the two holes already in your frame.

Mounted Bracket
This first picture shows the bracket mounted on the bike and holding the side cover. The original side cover is steel and has a hole drilled in the top. If you have a fiberglass side cover, you could drill a hole to accept the dzus fastener or use our other bracket designed for fiberglass side covers, (13-000001B).

Installation is easy:
First - mount the two rubber oil mounts on your frame as shown, using two 1/4" washers and two nuts.
Second - push the dzus fastener through the rubber grommet and mount on the top of the side cover. We have found it much easier to mount the grommet to the side cover with the fastener inserted than try to insert the fastener through the grommet after it is mounted on the cover.
Third - Mount the bracket to the rubber mounts using the remaining washers and nuts. The bracket comes with the dzus receptacle already mounted for your convenience. If you are just purchasing the bracket and reusing your existing dzus receptacle, the top of the receptacle compresses to fit into the rectangular hole in the bracket. The easiest way to insert the receptacle into the bracket is to slide one side into the hole and using a screw driver, carefully compress the top of the receptacle until it pops into the hole.
Last - put the side cover on your bike by pushing the bottom down between the "Z" bracket and the frame, hook the back of the cover over the lug, then hold the bottom of the receptacle/bracket and push down on the fastener and turn it until it locks in place.
Note: If you are not familiar with this dzus system, you may want to perform the second step first and fasten the bracket to the side cover, off the bike, to see how it feels to fully lock it into place.
