Default Best Place for Rear Docking Hardware

I'm looking to add a sissybar to my street glide for the ol' lady but HD wants $100+ for some bolts and a bracket. Is there a better alternative for the rear quick disconnect?

TIA!

My bike is a 2010

If you're in no rush, check the classifieds section often. They pop up from time to time, I just sold one about a month ago.

2 if all you need is a sissy bar. Go with the 4 if you plan on a tour pak,or a 2up luggage rack.

I'd definitely do the 4 point. It doesn't look any more obnoxious than the 2 point, but it will give you options in the future - luggage rack, etc.

Ohh, I thought you meant the actual sissy bar itself. I rarely see the docking hardware on here, so you might as well go buy it, unless you're willing to wait a very long time until something comes up.

And then there's the chrome caps to cover up the docking points, $24.95/pair. It NEVER ends!
