Default Seat Help

Hello all,
i have a 1995 Electra Glide Classic that i put a solo road king seat on. the seat was from a 1995 as well. i am having a problem finding a rear seat section {pillion} for this seat. does anyone know why a 1997 or newer seat wont work? i can find lots of newer style seats but its tough to find pre 1996. some of the newer seats i find on ebay look like they should work but hate to spend the money if they dont. thanks

I put a new Saddlemen Seats "Road Sofa" on my '91 Electra Glide Sport and as happy as a pig in slop with it. It has a gel insert and built in backrest that allows me to cruise for hours in total comfort. Check them out. They have the seat pan jigs for ALL Harley years and models. See my garage for pics of it.
