for the air tubes on my k3, i tool the front fairing off, and they slotted on and off real easy, but i have no headlights or anything like that to worry about. shouldnt be to hard mate.

ZIP TIE

I would imagine, you would possible have to use the lugs etc off the old ones, possible by drilling the carbon ones?
