Default detachable pass backrest docking hardware

Im curious if anybody has found detachable passenger backrest docking hardware by itself. Ive found a few good looking quick detach backrests on ebay but none of them come with the docking hardware. I need a backrest so my girlfriend will go on long rides like to sturgis but i dont want to spend 400-500 on a new setup from the stealer just so she has a backrest and feels safer. It will only be on when shes riding with on long trips so i dont need to waste a bunch of money on it. If you know anybody that has just the docking hardware for sale, can you post a link or something please. That, or if you know what it takes to make a docking station for them, i could probably muster one up. I have access to a full blown machine shop at work so probably wouldnt be too hard, but i cant imagine if its sold separate that it could be all that expensive. Thank you guys, keep on kickin gas

Haha, it's cool. Get the P/N and check surdyke.com or lshd1.com it was like $30 or 40 cheaper than through a dealer.

Thank you for the advice everyone. And no, I havent moved the turn signals yet. I plan on getting the badlands license plate with run/stop/turn build into it with LEDs. That's another 400 bucks or so, but I planned on it for the looks anyways. I just don't want to buy a 200 dollar sissy bar or side plates and backrest hoop, then a 200 dollar backrest, and then the hardware (now that I found its sold separate) for 40 bucks just to get this done. I can find a take off detachable setup for less than 100 and since I'm not too worried about the look of it since it will only be on when haulin her or gear. Thanks again everyone for the site suggestions to probable save me even more money.
