Default Color matched Saddlebag lid spoilers

I was thinking about adding the HD color matched bag lid spoilers with the led light kits to my 2017 SGS . If I decide to add a tour pack will the saddlebag lid spoilers clear the tour pack when I open the saddlebags?
I'm thinking also that the spoiler on the king tour pack would look very custom along with the bag lid spoilers. Any one have some pics?

I have them on my 2015 SGS with a forward solo tour pack. No issues with hitting anything. They are a pain in the a!! to install. If I had it to do over I would most likely have gone with the lights that go on the back of the saddle bags under the lid edge.

I have these lights on my '03 RK and they are neat but I do not have a tour pack on that bike.

I also have the lid rails with lights on my '13 CVO Ultra and they clear the tour pack with no problems.

Personally I like the "rails" better as I can more easily open my saddlebag lids without touching the paint.

The "downside" to both IMO is that if you cannot use the leather lid protectors with these mounted on your lids.

Problem with those lights is that they are hideous looking. They look like something off the shelf from Pep Boys.

I wouldn't go that far. Lol. But I'd say more useless compared to the other bag light options out there. I thought about the spoilers with the lights. Got to see a few and realized money was better spent on the under lid lights. I was going for lighting not styling so much. So for 250 bucks I wasn't going to drop that for lights ya can't really see. Still considering the spoilers. But not adding the lights.

I already have the under lid HD LED lights that go under the back of the lid, I really do like them allot. I recently bought the Color Matched Lid Spoilers, without the lights. I just wanted to put the Spoilers on, without the lights that go inside of them, but there are no instructions that came with them. I was thinking of using 3M tape, instead of drilling holes, just not sure.

I don’t think they look all that bad however if it’s lights you want, I just went with these new lids with built in LED lights, they look and work great, though I’m sure cost a lot more than those spoilers, they do color matching and you can get them with or without speakers. Bad Dad customs

Not really looking for more light, I just liked the looks of the Color Matched Wings.
