Yes.. Tbags will be a tight fit. It should say if they will work on their web site.

They are 4" tall. I wouldn't do it. Mine don't seat perfect. I would say 4 3/8"

if you get a tbag, it can scuff the top of the inner dash.

some of us cut "loop" velcro and stick it on top of the dash to prevent scuffing.

I used t-bags with a 4" shield, fit absolutely fine, no issues at all.

Thanks guys. I found a guy selling some for 60 bucks. For that price I might get them, if they don't work its not such big loss.

I had the T-Bag on my FLHX with a 4" windshield and they were the same height. Couldn't see the shield while driving but it just covered the bag. Then I bought a Wind Splitter so I sold the bags.
