Default Detachable tour pack question

Hi all, I picked up a 2009 Road King Classic today, haven't had a chance to take pics yet so Here's a link to a bike that looks just like it (mine doesn't have the luggage rack like the one in the pic)

Anyway, I have a detachable tour pack off my 04 Electra Glide. I know the rack the tour pack is mounted on will not fit due to the wider rear fender on the 09. My question is if I got the correct mounting rack would the tour pack from the 04 fit the 09 rack without drilling more holes or would I need to drill it. I have no issue drilling it but I guess Im just hoping I wont have to.

More than likely your going to need to drill. You won't know till you put everything together.

It's just a few more holes at the most. No big deal.

As mentioned, no way to get around it. Just plug the extra holes with plastic hole plugs from your DIY center.
