If you have a Street Glide CVO and want a matching back rest pad, why don't you simply order the one stock one that comes on a Limited CVO?

What I mean to say is ordering from the replacement parts section, not the parts and accessories catalog.

I am not sure if I am explaining that correctly.

Different seat material. It won't match.

I just bought a '17 CVO SG. Negotiated in the back rest. Matches perfect. Model numbers in attached link.

Unless you either got a '16 seat on your '17, or your not looking properly at that pattern, it does not match the '17 seat we all have

On the backrest pad of the link you sent shows a carbon fiber style insert, the '17 seat has a different insert to it, more of a grain vs carbon fiber. The overall seat and backrest pattern is the same, it's the insert that is different that everyone is looking for

When I go to that PN, it states styled for 2015 CVO SG. It also says for the passenger, not for the rider. If you're happy with it, that's all that matters but it's not the same for the 17 CVO SG as others have already stated.

Wow... I stand corrected. You all are right. The pad is a carbon like weave but the seats are different. Didn't notice. Now my OCD will drive me nuts! And it is the passenger back rest. I don't have a rider backrest.

The nice thing is, you thought it was an exact match as its very close and may never would have noticed if it weren't for this thread.
