Default Need Help Finding Sissy Bar

I've looked all over and can't seem to find side plates and a sissy bar for an 07 softail custom. I want to change out the seat in the near future and use a seperate sissy bar. All the side plates and bars I find are for other softails - nothing for the FXSTC. Anyone have any links?

Thanks for the offer as I appreciate it. Can you give me the measurments, center of bolt to center of bolt, of the last 2 bolts. When I get home from work today I'll measure mine and hopefully they're the same.

Thanks for the recommendation and pic, but what I'm looking for is a sissy bar that attaches with side plates. The seat I plan on getting is the Mustang Regal Wide, which is silimar to what I have now but wider, especially for the passanger. My wife is uncomfortable on the stock seat for long periods of time. She has a lower back problem that acts up everytime she get s on the bike with me. A wider seat helps as I had one on my last bike and she was good with that.

Have a search for a FXST 2006+ same rear end as the FXSTC with same mounting holes. I have plates and sissy bar on mine. Was considering swapping to the style you have as I like the smooth lines

Thanks for the info. They will not fit an 08 Deluxe. Oh well. I'll keep looking.
