I am wondering what the differences between an 84 flhtc saddlebag & lid vs an 85 flhtc. I’ve recently sustained damage to my left saddlebag lid and am looking for a replacement. Any info or help would be much appreciated.
Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. I think you'll find those bags were the same for models from 1980 through to the 1990s, when the side-hinged style was introduced.

If you look at the part numbers...they changed in 85...not sure why...the rear latch changed...more like a tour-pac latch
Mine are exactly like the 1st pic posted. I can’t seem to find replacement lids for an 84. 85 are very common and wondered if they would work. I guess I could retro fit the locking tab and hinge to fit my year saddlebag.
thoughts?? Thank you for all the input so far, really is a big help.
