Default Floor Boards compatibility question

I have an extra set of floorboards from my 2019 RGS - that i took off

They would look great on my 2020 deluxe If i chromed them

Does anyone know if the fitment is compatible or easily tweaked?

Thanks ahead.

No, completely different mounts, you could compare the two but not from what I'm seeing.

You have the boards on one hand and the bike on the other - let us know if they will fit. You may be pushing forwards the knowledge on inter-changeability!

You mean you haven't taken one of them off? You have the darned parts in your hands, but want us to do the work for ya? For Pete's sake, get back on your back and try the swap. Seems to me both bikes use the same footboard mounting, so the boards should swap over.
