If you do a search on this forum lots of write ups on this subject. I didn't get the HD one due to it sticking out so bad. I almost did the same thing but quite a few people had mentioned this issue on here. Of coarse to each his own as well.

I used the existing hardware to relocate the front signals. It's in the 'under $50' thread. Only thing you have to do is drill the hole out to 3/8" so it can accept the pinch bolt.

you will need the following if you want to use the original mounting bolts to the turn signals

2-5/16" lock washers
2-5/16" ss flat washers
2-5/16" nylon washers
see this link http://ae1m.com/relocate_directionals/install.htm
This worked out great this way for me. Thanks to Dynamite17 for the above link

Really like the looks of this method just want to be clear that it will work with the 09.
Just a bit slow on the up take here I guess.
