I downloaded the instructions from hd on a new nostalgic windshield and on page 4 it has the parts diagram and it shows the docking hardware and gives a part number for the kit. $50 something from surdyke hd. I am I wrong and this kit is not for quick release?

If I remember correctly the nostalgic hardware is the one that is arched across the top? And it only has 3 screws as opposed to 5? If that is correct, be sure to check if any of the aftermarket manufacturers make one to fit. I hope I'm wrong, but even Harley doesn't sell just the windshield for the nostalgic - figure that one out! I think you have to buy the whole rig.

Oops....A few years back I had a 2006 Heritage and at the time there where no options - Thanks for the new info. Do they offer just the "Fat" or both widths?

I started with the king size nostalgic at 21" and it is now cut down to 17". It's perfect for me and I look over it and not thru it.
