Default Low-Profile Windshield

Anyone running the low-profile windshield on a Heritage Classic with the detachable hardware. If so, could you tell me what the height of the windshield is from the top of the shield to the opening above the main headlight. I had the factory windshield cut down 2 inches on my 03 FLSTC and the height was perfect but the glass shop must have let the tape dry on the shield before they took it off because it peeled some of the tinting off of it. I was looking at replacement shield part number 58277-95. TIA.

I have a low profile compact windshield on my Deuce, part 57824-00A and it's 15" between the top and the headlight opening. Don't know if that will give you any perspective or not reference the Heritage.

Mine is 19", so in looking at yours in the catalog I think they are quite different. Thanks for taking the time on the reply though.

3" difference between king size and low profile.
