Default Backrest options for Tour Pak

I have an EGC with a C&C Fastback seat and ride solo 99% of the time, since my wife has her own RKC. I love the Fastback seat and also like to use the (detachable) Tour Pak about half the time. I'm not fond of the look of the stock Tour Pak backrest with the wraparound arms with the Fastback and am looking for another solution. Right now I have backrest off and the holes plugged and it looks okay, but I'm thinking it might look a little nicer with another pad. Some preliminary searching didn't turn up much. Any ideas?

I have a King Tour Pak. The small rest from Harley would be the right idea, but it doesn't appear like it will fit a King, only Chopped.

I put the back rest used on the chopped tour pak on my king tour pak. My wife prefers it to the big one.

Let me know if you decide to get rid of backrest...I'm looking for a later model backrest, I have an 01 ultra and it has the bottons on it, I have upgraded the tour seat to newer style off an 07, looking to match up backrest.
