Dash Insert for 08 Road Glide
I want to replace the Dash console insert for my 08 RG. Anyone have a link to aftermarket site or HD part numbers. 08 is the orphan model year, apparently.
Thanks in advance,

I am also interested in updating my console dash insert (2009 Road Glide here.) The catalogs and HD online both seem to have conflicting information. You will see "fits '89-'07 FLHS, FLTR, FLH, FLHT, FLHTC and FLTC models" in some descriptions and then "fits '89 and later models" in others. I have called several local dealers and they are saying the older console inserts will NOT fit the 2008 and newer bikes. Different consoles...at least for the FLTR's.
Any help from anyone here who has swapped out a 2008 or newer Road Glide insert with something else?

Or you could go to the local trophy shop and get one made out of the chrome, or brushed chrome outdoor sign plastic, laser engraved. probably 30 bucks. I got mine at B&B trophy in Clinton Twp. Mi.

With some persistent phone calling I was finally able to get an answer to my own question...
The '08 and newer FLTR's have a different Console shape and so different part numbers for the accent trim pieces.
In the HD big book look under '08 and newer FLHTC models (same console shape as the FLTR's apparently) and those are the trim panels that will fit:
71924-08 Bar & Shield
71925-08 Flamed
71926-08 Raised Skull
71927-08 Vivid Black
71928-08 Reaper
All are priced at $54.95

That's why I went Trophy Shop!! The engraving is actually black, thats just the light from the flash, the finish is brushed nickel. Looks better in person.
