Does this part exist?
Looking for a quick disconnect backrest kit for my 07 EGC. Currently have an 804-06 kit for my Tour Pack. Like to put a backrest on it for the OL. The one I got from the dealer last night only workswith an 803-06 kit. Difference between the kits is the 803 front docking points are about 2 inches forward. Looked through the catalog and online and can't find a thing....

RE: Does this part exist?
Did see that after the fact. Question is, the chrome top rail cover that runs along the fender bracket, "U" shape on the fender, precludes putting a docking point in the front. Also the bracket on my 53303-07 kit (bolted to the underside of my TP) appears to be to short to mount to the front docking points...

That is the kit I got last night. The front docking point cut outs on the side supports is about 2 inches longer. I can see that I need front docking points, but if I install those, the TP docking points will be 2" short....[:@]

They can be a PITA to install. Do a search here on the forum with the search feature about installing detachable hardware, etc. and you will find some tips.

Shorty, the chrome fender strut covers are removed to install the front (sissy bar) docking hardware, and reinstalled after the docking hardware is installed.
