Do a search, you have to drill, then cut a hole. The only hard point that works (so I hear) is behind the fairing.
There are many detailed posts on this, so do your homework. I'm doing mine next week. Good luck

RE: Bought new Frame Sliders
I found the laser technique the easiest and safest way. I only wished I had measured my pucks before drilling the 2" hole... it's too big. Should have been 1 3/4". I couldn't do the playdoh method... too much foam padding behind my fairing. The laser put me dead center and let me check before I drilled the hole.
