Default Tail light interchangeable?

Anyone know if the tombstone tail light on the M8 Delux will bolt straight up to a M8 Heritage rear guard? Always been a fan of the style of the tombstone tail light and thinking of making the swap.

Cheers
Mike

I looked at the bikes in the showroom.
Nope. Deluxe tombstone will not go on a heritage.
Gonna have to find an aftermarket light.

Since I couldnt fir the tombstone tail light I figured I'd go the blacked out route. Fitted a low profile smoked LED taillight, smoked turn signals and LED inserts. Laydown license plate looks better too.
Cheers

I decided on a different route with the tail lamp collar.
