Default Difference in seats between Nostalgia and regular Heritage??

Hey guys, I picked up a seat for my Nostalgia and the thing does not fit. The front latch that usually slides under the lip to hold the seat down is the problem. I am trying to remember exactly what is wrong with it, I believe the problem was that front latch that actually is on the seat is turned around backwards so the gas tank has to be taken off to slide into place.

Shouldnt aftermarket seats be a direct fit and not require a modification bracket for put them on? Is there a difference in Nostalgia seat and regular Heritage?
