Deuce Solo Seat Fender Panel??
Guys
I want to put a HD solo seat on my Deuce, but that would leave the beautiful three holes under the stock seat visible on the rear fender. I know that Harley used to sell a panel to cover these holes, for those that ran a solo seat. But apparently its been discontinued. What options do I have here? I have searched around and cannot find another place that makes or sells a panel to cover these holes. I am trying to avoid having to remove the fender and have the holes filled and then repaint.
Thanks

I just posted this reply in another thread.

A preivous owner had a Deuce style backrest on my Fatboy. I picked up a Corbin Hollywood solo off ebay for next to nothing (I almost felt guilty about the price) and covered the holes with plastc push-in style panel trim pins from the local Auto Zone. They're shiny black with a smooth, low profile that matches the fender. IMHO it's a better look than the bibs. I sometimes switch back to the two up stock seat and it's nothing to pull them out, they're only a few bucks.
Also -- Love the Corbin seat. It sits lower and has a better profile than stock. My only issue with it is that it doesn't always keep mestrapped induring launch, I mean acceleration...

RE: Deuce Solo Seat Fender Panel??
I had the same issue when I bought a Solo Brawler seat earlier this year. I ordered the seat and the panel at the same time and when the seat arrived and the panel didn't I tried every dealer in the US to find some old stock but no luck. I bought a bib from Mustang for $30 which was better than nothing, at first I was still looking for a painted cover to match my 2003 but now I really like the bib. I will take some pics tonight and post them for you. Mustang were great to deal with also.
