I received my order but with no instructions I thought the front covers would just pop in, but there is nothing for them to stick to. The rear covers have threaded holes that look like they are for set screws. Who has experience with these Triumph brand nut covers? Could they be for a Bonneville instead of a BA?

i have a set, they hang on to the flat spot on the nut with tiny Allen set screws. Put some Loctite on 'em and don't get 'em too tight

I was lucky enough to get a pair of chrome spike covers for the front axle. Can't remember where I got them but I sure love them.
