Something doesn't seem right with that Bow. I'm gonna take a closer look at mine tonight.

 

Mine, as I think all have the bow in it.. As one other said, take the screw out, loctite it and run it back in but don't tighten up till it bows the fairing. Also the "bolts" sticking up out of your tourpack where the antennas were are really all thread. You can take them out and put button head bolts in to match the rest of the bike or put the black or chrome push in style caps if you like.. Just wanted you to know they can be removed so you can explore more options..

 

You can go inside the tourpak, unscrew the antenna posts and pull them back into the pak. Tuck them neatly under the liner.

Then just plug the empty holes with 5/16" plastic hole plugs.

Thanks for the info. I'm doing the J&M hidden antennas on my Limited, they're $0.95 at the dealer or like you said about $0.25 online.

 

Ya but that was before I actually GOT that part, once you go in and try to put the one from the CB side to the radio side you'll find that the studs and in turn, the holes in the TP are vastly different than one another. The smaller one on the right is the CB, the large one is the radio.......no way to swap them. The trick is to do as Offthewalll said (not sure which of us did it first but no matter) and remove the liner from the TP, unplug both of them and remove the studs - then silicone some 5/16" plugs from the hardware store.

 

Went to Autozone and bought a pack of vacuum caps for 4 bucks. Didn't want to remove the studs in the event I went back to original antenna

 

Yours looks nice, but I don't want to glue anything in there as I'd like it reversible if I ever go back. I figured out how to do it with HD parts for about $5, you just need the two caps (part # 12100023) and one extra of the CB antenna female (part # 76000164). You can put the extra CB antenna part where the male radio antenna stud is, and it'll hold the cap for that side. The large radio side of the connector inside the tour pack has the same threads for that part, tested and fits fine.

 

That's why I only used the clear (bath type) silicone, so it would come off easy if I choose to but it back in there.

Post up some pix of what you did with those.

 

Will do once I get the extra CB side part in.

 

OK, here's pictures of the install with the Harley CB antenna stud part installed on the radio side. Looks factory clean and reversible too! For an Ultra Limited you need:

2x part # 12100023
1x part # 76000164
