Default Softail Deluxe Bare Bones question

I'm getting a Le Pera Bare Bones for my Deluxe. I emailed Christine Le Pera, and she said the LXE-007 is the seat for my bike.

My question is, does anyone run this seat, and does it install as quickly as I think it does? Does it use my stock thumbscrews? And can I get black thumbscrews from my dealer?

Thanks for any help.

I do and for the 150 miles I've put on it, it is great. It goes on the same as the stock seat and it uses the same bolts.
