Hey guys,

Bought some aftermarket fairings and I have 2 issues.

1) does anyone know where to source these metal circular clips? I tried pulling them off my OEM fairing, but they start to bend. At this point i'd love to purchase some or use an alternative.

2) My front fairing is missing a threaded hole for the bolt that holds the headlights together. What can I do besides return it? I have it circled, see attached images.

1) Ducati calls the clip a "crown fastener" and is p/n 85040521A. See this snapshot from the instructions for the Akrapovic lower kit for 2022+ bikes.

2) When I had to deal with the same problem with aftermarket fairings, I drilled and tapped the fairing for a M4 (maybe M5, I can't remember) helicoil.
