Default Seat Interchangeability Question
Lately I've been considering swapping the seat on my 01 E/G Ultra out for something different, but everything I come across that I like seems to be for a 2008 or newer. So I ask.....will a solo seat from a 2008 & up fit a 2001? Seems like a simple enough question...I know...but I just haven't had any luck finding the answer!!! Thanks in advance for any help!!
