Default Fairing Years question

Did anything change from the fairings from 2007 to 2008? Would and 2008 fairing fit on a 2007 model?

According to H-D:

No change there.

The fairings did change. There is now 4 screw holes for the wind deflectors as opposed to 3. So the outer fairing would have 4 nubs with threaded inserts. I believe the other 3 holes line up with the older versions with only 3 holes, but I am not 100% sure. I know that people have put the 4 hole wind deflectors on 07 and earlier bikes and adapted them.

Dawg was referring to the inner fairing; the outers are the same.

Yes the windshields are the same. I was referring to the adjustable wind deflectors that go on the bottom of the batwings.
