Default Taillight Relocation Help

First-time poster, long-time reader.

I am wanting to put on small, slanted saddlebags. I have a quick-release sissy bar with the stock taillights on the fender. With both the sissy bar and the taillights where they are is there a way to not have to move them but still fit small to medium saddlebags? Picture included below to see my current setup.

If I have to relocate my lights what are your recommendations to do so? Thanks all for your help.

Look into Bad & G bags. You can install them without relocating the taillights. I'm not sure how much space you need but the bag in the link below holds up to 10 beer/soda cans.

If I chose to relocate are there any recommendations on a good, cost-effective relocation kit?
