Default Twin Cam "H-D Detachables" vs M8 "HoldFast" Docking Hardware

Does anybody know if the older twin cam Slim rear fender strut bolts have the same spacing as the new M8 Softails. I have a backrest (PN: 52760-11) already but the mounting hardware is pure garbage and I'd like to change out for something better.

From what I can tell the newer version (HoldFast Docking Hardware Kit - Gloss Black) looks a bit sturdier and is in black which is a plus to me.
