Default Drivers backrest

I’ve got an 05 Ultra Classic that I’m stripping down some. I’ve taken the the front bumper off. The tour pack off. Switched to the Street Glide saddle bag guards. I just got a used 06 Road Glide seat for it and wonder if it’s possible to use my mustang drivers backrest with it.

Do I buy a mustang mount or an HD mount?

There should be a slit between the rider and passenger area where the backrest mount would protrude up through. If you have the mustang backrest mount it still should protrude up through as the H-D one would.
