Default Guys with Forward Controls and Patriot Exhuast

Which forward controls work with the patriots? I know on the website it says factory HD ones will work but I was wondering if any others will work?

With all of the "knock-off" Chinese, forward control junk on eBay, etc, I'd recommend staying with the real deal HD forwards, usless you really know what you're buying.
