Nor sure about those, but I got these and the wife said that she would have to kill me if I took them off. She really likes em. I suspect the ones your looking at are pretty similar.
Here's where I got them getlovehandles.com

Sorry about the glare...

Just wondering if you got them? I'm interested too and would like to hear what you say about them. The only concern is that there are only 2 little screws holding the armrest to the backrest. I cant imagine it to be too stable.

Default I Got Them

My wife LOVES them. She doesn't go for the passenger grabrails any more and is completely comfortable. I don't have to worry about her having fallen off on one of those "late night" rides back home, when things get quiet!

the ones that rocky posted a link to seem kind of cheap. 1/8" aluminum doesn't seem very strong to me, then you have to drill holes in it to match your backrest..

Default Fitment

Has anyone one tried the arms rests on Rocky's entry, on a 2006 Heritage? My sissy bar has the two screws down low on the sissy bar. In order for the arm rests to be high enough to reach the bottom of my wife's elbows, I would have to drill the two holes lower down on the wide piece in order to make the arms rise higher.

Any thoughts on your passenger getting trapped in that rig if you go down? Just wonderin'...
