Default HELP! Attaching Heritage saddlebgs

I purchased a used set of bags for my '02 Heritage Classic. The mounts were attached to the bags. There is a short mount with a rubber washer that attaches to the bracket arm, but I'm not sure where this piece attaches to the bike. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Sorry can't be of much help. I had my bags off once to install saddlebag guards. As I recall there were two threaded studs on the fender bracket that the bags went over and then two nuts on the inside of the bagsecured them.

Yea there is a stud mounted to a bracket. The bracket mounts behind the rear foot pegs with the same bolt, and the footpeg mount holds it in place.

You can also cut off that support bar coming down off the bags for a more clean look when your bags are off. I cut mine and have never had a problem. The two bolts that hold the bag on dojust fine.
