What's available out there if anything as far as hard side cases go that can mount to the 500?

I had to custom make brackets, for the givi cases. Look under projects, think it was titled, "winter project". Side cases drop my mpg about a solid -5 miles. Probably not bad around 50 mph, but I am mostly on the highways at 75 mph. Saw a few postings, but little information of how others did it. Cost is easy $300 +. U will need a back trunk plate at least also, for upper support bracket, the easy way. my 2 cents. Also, added directionals likely, because the cases will block the OEM directionals. (depends on how far forward they are mounted)
