Default Seat Interchange

Restoration of an 2005 Heritage Softail Classic. seat is beyond hope

Question: Found a 2014 Heritage seat, will it fit the 2005 Heritage?

Everything I can find says it will, but like to know if anyone
has done something similar with good results.

Mounts are different, yours has the side spring loaded screws, the 14 mounts at the rear of the rider seat with 2 studs that are on a plate under the fender, if you dont have the holes you'd need to drill 2 holes, and get the plate and retaining washers.

Posible ecm clearance as I dont remember exactly how yours sits compared to the 14

Ok, I found a 2006 solo seat in great shape. Now I have a new question. One side tab has a spring & screw mounted on seat and the other side does not. How do I remove the screw with spring? Is it just pressed in? I tried a punch but no luck, tabs are riveted to seat and didn't want to loosen them. I know someone has run into this before, help!
