Layback License Plate for Deluxe needed?

I've got an 06 Deluxe and just put on my Sissy Bar. Just noticed the top of the license plate bracket is slightly higher than the rear fendor rack . Any Deluxe riders out there -- is this OK or did you have to install the Layback license plate ? Also, what type of Rack Bag are you using ?

Go to "dennis kirk" web or catalog.
they have one that is for a heritage classic softail, it works perfect for the deluxe.

Thanks HarleyDad,
I'd still like to know if I need the Layback version, but if I do need it I'll certainly buy the model you just linked me to -- it's cleaner than the Harley version.

Trust me it is the only one that will allow you to use a "T-Bag" on the back/rest sissy bar.
We have a deluxe. I even called the factory. They said that they [HD] did not have anything that would correct the problem.
They had absolutly no answer. I told them that the engineering dept. dropped the ball on that one!!!!

i'm not sure what you're referring to here...i have an 05 deluxe with detachable backrest and 2-up rack. My rack doesn't touch the license plate or holder. It works great with a passenger and t-bag.
