Default Forward Control help!!!

Ok guys, take it easy on me, I'm still a fng. I just came across a set of H-D forward control kit (black) Part# 33397-07A in the classified ads. I have a 2004 XL 883 and was wondering if these babies will fit? All the research I have done says that it will only fit 06 and up. I was wondering if anyone had any experience fitting this part number to my 04.

Any input would help a million!!!

That particular kit is for '06 and later XL models. The one for your bike is 33398-04
or 33398-05
