Default Looking for pictures: Deluxe/WO508 bars

I'm thinking of putting Wild Ones Chubby bars on my Deluxe. The model that seems to make the most sense is the 0601-508. They are a couple inches taller and an inch closer. I would love to see these bars on a deluxe before I pay for them. Anyone?

I started out with the 508's on my Road King but could not get use to the wrist position of the bars. My wrist were way to close to the tank. I eneded up putting the 518's on and like them much better. I have a set of the 518's on the parts board for sale if you are interested. They were on the bike for a month before I sold the bike to a friend who wanted the stock bars.

Wild1's website has photos of their bars on various bikes. Although not a Deluxe, you get the jist of how they look on the bike.

508's are kind of narrow. My wife's 03 Heritage has them. The 518's are better.
Here's a pic (I hope)

Thanks for the replies everyone. A couple of votes for the 518's. I'm not sure I want them that tall. 18"!

byersmtrco - That is looks great. I just wanted to double check that those are the 508's right? By the way, nice looking T-bird in the background.
