Question laydown taillight replacement Help needed pls!

Hi all,

dunno, I have been looking around online but keep drawing up a blank in my search and was hoping someone here might have the info for me.

I am looking for a laydown taillight lens (red) that has the clear windowed section for eluminating the licence plat that works for licence plates that are relocated to under the taillight. It is to replace the stock lens on a 2009 FLSTC (heritage classic).

I am planning on relocation the licence plate under the taillight and just want to swap the lens with a lay down.

any body know what lens and where to get it?

thanks

Just as an alternative if you can't find anything, I used an LED plate frame with the softbrake kit. Looks great at night.

Mordrapheus - Here is the gray version. I am sure they make it in red too, just had no time to look for it (working hard here in CT and all...lol).

In the middle of a license plate mod and am considering this style.

To plug my fender holes Im using Ace Hardware chrome buttons/plugs (not sure what else to call them ). They snap right into the hole, are low profile, cost a buck each and are chromed metal.

You're welcome Mr. M. If I could only find a way to make money with all this seemingly useless knowledge!
