Default Sissy Bar Blues

I have a dyna super glide and had ghost brackets installed with custom bags. My wife wants to ride with me but would like a sissy bar installed. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to mount detachable sissy bars while having ghost brackets installed or am I going to be forced to lose my single mustang seat and go to a two up permanently? Need some help!!

Bullet:
I've got the Ghost Brackets on my Sporty with a rigid mount Sissy Bar. I've actually spoken with Caleb at Ghost Brackets a fair amount in deciding on whether or not to go detachable. My dad has a 2001 Dyna Sport and the detachable sissy bar. He called Ghost Brackets and they have a conversion kit for about $15 or $20 bucks that allowed him to use the brackets and have a detachable sissy bar. I think it took him all of about 40 minutes to install (most of which was probably just finding the right allen wrench). We love them.
