Default Triple tree wind deflector

A similar thread was posted on the Softail forums but thought I would ask the question here as well.

Has anyone gotten the triple tree deflector (dog dish) to work on a Heritage? I tried the touring model but really couldn'

t get it to work with all the cabling we have there for the driving lights.

I already have the fork deflectors but still have a lot of wind between my fairing and tank causing buffeting at higher speeds. Has anyone used a 2-3" tank lift and did that help with buffeting?
