Headlamp visor trim for 2018 softails (non-touring)
Hi folks
I'm kinda re-posting this with a more descriptive title in the hope someone can help
I'm looking for a visor style headlamp trim for my 2018 Heritage Classic.
It seems Harley make them for older bikes (eg. 69734-05 - but this has a single front-to-back screw fitting as opposed to the 2018s' sideways clamping screw) and they make them for the 2018 touring models (eg. 69733-05 - sideways clamping screw, but larger diameter), but not for 2018 softails, like Heritage, Slim, Deluxe etc.
The Chinese knock-offs are all similar in that they're either for older models or only touring models.
Anyone had success finding something that fits?

I installed them on mine. The whole set I took out from my previous 2014 Deluxe.
However, in order to do it I had to replace the main headlight bucket (and its mount block) for an earlier-style one. Got a cheap new bucket (already painted black) from Drag Specialties. It took some wire splicing (because the new style headlamp connector woudn´t pass through the old style bucket rear hole) and I had to remove a guide pin (in which the '18 mount block fits in) from the triple tree, but in the end this was the result. The auxiliary lamps trim rings were a direct fit.
Not the ideal solution, but I hope it helps. Better than wait for an accessory that might never be offered.
