probably yes... although relocate them isn't really the right word because they'll likely stay in the same place...

assuming its an HD backrest with QD plates, you'll also need the QD docking hardware

google is your friend... also, your dealer will have lots of info and can show you how it works and what else you'll need. they'll also happily install it for you for your firstborn

Correct. HD has a TS kit that basically replaces the stock contoured stems with a tubular shaft. It's about $29 if I remember right. Cheaper if you buy from one of the online shops like Surydyke, House of Harley or Chicago HD.

Oops! I was way off on the price. I was thinking Street Bob.

I think what you need is the license plate/Turn Signal relocation kit in the picture. Double check my work please.

Before committing, look into this less expensive and better looking option.

The 2013 WG come with side mount plates. You will need the light relocation kit to do any mounting to the rear fender for bags, back rest, luggage racks. For the 2013 WG I think the kit was like $49 in the HD parts catalog. I only know this as I am doing the same on my 2013 WG lol.

I just ordered it all for my 2013 FXDWG also what you need is part numbers 54097-10 which is the docking hardware kit and 53968-06C which is the turn signal relocation kit.

Thanks everyone for the info. Yes it's Harley quick detach. And I have already moved license plate down by wheel. I also have docking hardware on order. Over the winter I took front turn signals off of handlebars and mounted led mini bullets on forks.
