Default Four point quick release on FLHP
Can a quick release mount be installed on a 2009 FLHP so the police box can be taken off when not needed?
has anyone done this? Any pics?

Yes...You just need to buy the quick mounts, and then the trunk mount, and bolt the police box to that trunk mount. Do you still have the air shock for the police seat?

Where will you relocate the air system for your seat? The stock location is under the mount for the police box. Some folks move it into a saddle bag. I'd probably just convert to the coil shock used on the later police bikes.

I have seen where others have moved it to a saddlebag. Not sure yeet if I'm going to add a docking system or not.
