Default Chrome License Plate/Light Kit

I did a search and did not find anything so I thought I'd ask...

There is a light kit in the accessory catalog with a part number of 68230-97B. I had one of these on my 1991 EG Classic and liked the extra light.

The catalog says it fits '97-'08 models. Has anyone tried to put one of these on a 2009 model? I'm wondering why it would not fit...

You may be able to make it fit, but I think the reason it states that it doesn't work is because on the 08 and earlier models the license plate mount was the support for the tour pak and that is how that light kit mounts. On the 09 and later models, the plate mount does not attach to the bottom of the tour pak, nor does it act as a support.
