Default Dyna Switchback Saddlebag Lights?

Does anyone make these for the Switch? Talking about the ones that go on rear of bag, and used as running, brake and sequential turn, like they sell for the ultras?

I've never physically checked, but the back of the bag seems to have the same shape as the 13 and down street glide bag. If you don't get an answer by the weekend, I'll run over to my uncles and compare the size of his switchback and my cousins 07 ultra classic.

Thank you, that would be very helpful. I cannot find anything for it. I bought a set for my 09 Ultra and those are about 3/4 inch larger.

Well, the bags from 93 to 2013 are the same, so if the ones you have for a 09 don't fit then you're kinda screwed. I know the 14 up aren't even close to the switchback because I've owned both simultaneously.

The main reason I got rid of my switchback was the lack of support, both OEM and aftermarket.

What lack of support are you referring to? Everything is pretty much the same as any dyna....it has floorboards so exhausts might be more limited but everything else is wide open.....I have both a switchback and a Superglide custom/slowing morphing into a AFM year FLH....and have had no problems getting parts.....the only issue I have run into is why Harley had to go a change wheel bearing size like 3 times so now certain wheels won't work due to either axle size or leg size....

exhaust options were limited, small parts were obsolete and instead of buying a $3.00 clip you have to buy the entire $68.00 bracket (saddle bag lid catch), wheels were a pain in the *** for the reasons you mentioned just to name a few. Don’t get me wrong, it was a great bike, it was just a pain anytime I wanted to change upgrade or repair something. About the only thing my dealer stocked for it was the derby cover gasket and oil filter, even a front tire had to be ordered.

I am noticing that too. Custom Dynamics doesn't have anything that will fit, and HD is a joke, all they have on their website is Motor-clothes. Like a T-Shirt will solve all the bikes issues.Problem is, Wife loves the bike, fits her great, and she handles it well. So getting rid off it is a no go.
