You're most likely going to have to order one from you dealer. I have not seen them listed on any dealers' websites or any aftermarket sites nor has anyone on here posted about them. Let us know when you get one where and how much it cost.

$13 sheesh just buy it. If it takes more than 10 minutes to install the bats (which it will) it's worth it.

Yea BAT's is a bit hard since its curves and you have to stretch it and stuff. Changing the fin is easier for sure, especially for $13.

not positive but you probably have to squeeze the sides and pry up would be my guess....

maybe the whole unit is double sided on but you are trying to remove just the cover not the whole unit. once someone gets the housing we will have a much better idea. it will show where the clips are that hold the top half on
