So what do you think about mounting location? Hopefully from your response they are not pieces of ****....

All I can find is that Derlin is generic name from DuPont for the material the sliders are made out of.
Delrin® acetal resin emerged from DuPont's efforts to capitalize on the success of nylon and the growing post World War II market for plastics and other synthetic materials. Efforts to develop a tough and heat resistant metal substitute began in the early 1950s, and by 1952 chemists in the Polychemicals Department had synthesized an inflexible polymer from formaldehyde that assistant research director Frank C. McGrew called "synthetic stone" and DuPont named Delrin®.
Derlin is not the brand name... so I can't find any installation instructions. Can you contact the seller and see if you can get the instructions? Looking at the pictures, I don't see how they will work. The left/clutch side has a small recessed area but the right side has the large opening with a pinch bolt. I need to look at mine again to make sure I'm right, but I don't see how they will work.

biscuit, it looks like for your sliders the longer one (the one where the delrin slider (Fat part) is actually longer) goes on the left. If you'll look at the pics of the sliders i posted the left side one of mine is also longer. Anyway, I believe thats how yours go... just be careful cutting your fairings.
I asked the ebay people as you suggested. Here is there response..

So the answer is:
1 x left side frame slider -shorter with larger diameter aluminum insert
1 x right side frame slider -longer with smaller diameter aluminum insert
1 x left side frame slider -shorter with larger diameter aluminum insert
1 x right side frame slider -longer with smaller diameter aluminum insert
we are talking about fram sliders so i will let you guys hear what i have been hearing about metal frame sliders.they have been known to do damage to the frame because there is no give in them when your bike comes down hard.
