Don't me ask for instructions. If you want my help you'll have to pay for a round ticket. All you get is a bunch of parts and you decide how to get it together. It's on but not sure for how long.

i have a 300cc magnum trike and mine has only 4 bolts holding it down so it was pretty easy i dont know how bad yours is. the problem i have is that you have to take it off every time you need to get to the battery.what a pain. who designed that should be shot. the seat opens in 2 places and it wont lift up with the case there. life aint easy.

Originally the Magnum did not come with a trunk. They added the trunk due to customer requests. The problem was how to mount the trunk due to the seat design without redesigning the whole thing. Where it may require a little extra work to access the battery, at least the customers now have the trunk they wanted. One suggestion would be buy a small powersports battery charger or maintainer that comes with a pigtail wiring harness for the battery, that way you can charge the battery without opening the rear portion of the seat.
On a side note, if you think battery access on the Magnum is bad, try a Chysler Sebring, it is located in the front fender or a Cadillac Deville which is located under the rear seat.

Mine mounts under the rear it doesn't interfere with the seat operation. The seat opens and the trunk never moves. I took it off and don't have a picture with it mounted.

i bought a trickle charger and it comes with a set of leads that you can attach to the battery and leave them hooked up. you open the big seat and the leads from the battery are right there to hook to. but you have to take off the case if you need to change the battery.
