Default Windshields ?
Ok , not to sound needy , I would like to know if there is any difference in the "Newer" and "older" batwing windshields ? I understand that my 92 Glide has 5 holes and the new ones have 3 , but wouldn't they interchange ? Thanks for the helpful info !

Yes. The vent on the 2014 does work, I still added fairing lowers to my SGS for even less buffeting.

Look at aftermarket suppliers, as there is at least one that supplies earlier shields.

Here ya go!

Thanks guys ! Was pretty sure they would fit , as long as I drilled the extra hole . Just wanted to run it by you guys with all the experience . So much stuff out there that the stealership wants to act like it is "Black Magic " !
