Default License Plate Relocator...Ideas????
I just got a 2008 Road King and am waiting for the permanent license plate to arrive.

I don't like where it goes stock and would like to put it below the tail light, but want to keep the original signal lights. HD and Kuryakyn sell a kit that you have to replace the signal lights in order to do it.

Does anybody know where I can just buy a plate holder that will bolt right onto the tail light?

thanks,

If you have any pictures of how your license plate is mounted, please post them so I can get an idea. Just want to know if I'm going to have to fabricate one.

I think you could make 60089-05 and 60090-05 work. They are the two parts of the license plate bracket in the 53702-04A kit shown below
