Default Are these windshield mounts?

are these windshield mounts? They are holding on some makeshift fairing that I want to remove and get a windshield. I don't know if I need a regular mount windshield or a quick detachable one? Or if there are even windshield mounts.

No, those look like something they prefabbed to hold the fairing, you would have to get a quick release kit to add a windshield.

the bolts, the trimmed down mounts on the fairing, the whole thing, looks homemade to me.

I would guess it depends on the brand, if its a HD windshield look up your bike on the Harley website shop for the bike section.

Does the wind shield have a maker ID or can you get back in touch with the ebay guy you bought it from .
Are you mechanically able ?
Could you fab up something ?
