Default Fairing help for top mount headlight

Tried searching and didn't find a lot of info. I'm wanting to purchase a tsport fairing. Conelys, jd, deviant or another, haven't decided yet. My issue is I don't want to drill into my lower triple tree to mount the headlight. Does anyone know and or have pics of how guys are running their tsport fairings with a top mount "brow" style headlight? Will be going on my 04 fxdx

Thanks

I am looking for the same answer. I want to buy a JD, but am assuming ill have to customize the brackets or have some fabricated that will allow me to clamp to the forks rather that the riser bolts etc..

How did you get the bracket installed? I can't figure out how to remove that top plug at all.

Have wondered this myself, I know Memphis shades sell a mount that fits the brow and pushes it forward so it sits correctly.

Doesn't the new style one not just mount to the forks via clamps
