Default Fork tube size on an 05 Wide Glide and similar models

So I am looking at Facebook marketplace for a windshield for my 05 WG since I am not really interested in paying $400 for a new one from Harley. I found one from an 04 Low Rider for $150 OBO. Would the quick disconnect clamps translate between the low rider and the WG?

Lowrider 39 mm
wide glide should be 41mm
also they have different triple trees and spacing
so I doubt it

So it seems like the Wide Glide had to be a special snowflake and only parts made specifically for it.

Yes, would never own one for that reason but I do like the old school look.
