Default Ultra Twin Rail saddlebag guards on non-Ultra?

I added some Ultra saddlebag guards to my Road Glide and bought Antenna Mounting Bracket P/N 76516-09 as described in the MoCo parts catalogue. Got the bracket home and it won't work. It fits the saddlebag bracket but barely clears the top chrome rail. The hole for the antenna stud sits right over the top of the rail leaving absolutely no room for mounting the antenna.

Has anybody else added these twin rail guards to an '09+ touring bike without the Tour Pac and found the right bracket for using an antenna with the Ultra saddlebag supports?

If you have a part number I would greatly appreciate it!

........ it's the gods of The Darkside telling you that bag guards mess w/the esthetics of the RG Stripe. Messing w/the esthetics is under-appreciated in the realm of the Sharknose.
