Basically all u have to do is take a dremel tool or scissors and cut the top and the bottom of the can off. Then make a cut down the back side of the can where it wont be easily visible .. Then i took electrical tape and wrapped the back of the can so if i ever took it off the bike the canister wouldn't be scratched from the can.. Then just loosen the clamp on the shock canister and slide the can into position and tighten down the clamp.. Then stand back and look at it....
