Default 08 Road King speedometer Visor

Has anyone found a speedo visor that will work on the 08 road king.
Has anyone been able to modify something that will work?
I am thinking of trying to get the 07 harley visor and drilling two holes in the bottom rim and tapping them for set screws, what do you think, will this work?

I always wanted one.The visor for the 07 looked great and was disappointed when nothing was offered on the 08's.Was hoping a visor would come out for the 09 or 010's.But nothing yet.I would buy one if it came out.

The latest J&P Cycles catalog lists a visor for 1994 through 2010 Road Kings. The part number is 5600653, description is Waterfall Visor and price is listed at $21.99.
I have the combination digital speedo and tach that I took off the bike due to major windshield glare. If I can get a mileage reinstatement on the speedo odometer, I plan on trying this visor out to see if it cures the glare.
