If it helps I did eventually get the stays to fit, I loosened the stay to fender bolts considerably, the main culprit was the end of one stay where the metal is doubled up, the back layer was a tad on the wide side. I did not want to grind off the excess as that would have removed the chrome plating. A small amount of extra bend angle on the fork end of the stay enabled it to fit, I then tgihtened up the stay to fender brackets last.

I think DSS is big and organised enough to supply some instructions from the start when these things are needed.  :o

Mine fitted ok.  It was a bit of a wrestle to get the stays on to the fork but not too difficult
