Default Air Vent

I have had a look back through a few posts and seen mention of The Goldwing Vent & the 5 slot Clear View vent, But no mention of anyone fitting these to a standard tall Screen on a 2007 FLHTCU.

So my question is will either fit a standard FLHTCU Screen & has anyone done this mod.

I have never heard of anyone grafting a Honda vent into a Ultra's window. Do you have a picture of this mod?

Using the Honda sourced vent is used quite a lot on Harley shields, I do believe there is a aftermarket outfit that offers them pre installed on their windshields as well.

Check Ebay as there are smoke colored and clear ones available for around 45 bucks.

This concept is new to me and I have never heard of this before. Anyone got pics?

It can be done and does help with the updraft.

Install is caveman easy too, lay it out, drill the corners, use a jigsaw with metal blade to cut opening, install. I did one years ago with a scavenged old vent on my old bike.
