Default 2014 saddlebag guards

Can anyone tell me if the new (2014) saddlebag guards will fit the older bags ?

Since there are multiple products listed on the H-D website, do you have a specific part number / guard set you're looking at?

I clicked on a few and it looks like some are model-year specific to '14 and some included '14 but went further back.

Not with out a modification of some kind.

Had the dealer try to install them on my 2013 road king. They had to cut the bottom support and drill a new whole. Everything bolted right up after that until they tried to mount the bags. The bags hit the gaurd on the upper corner of the bag. If you wanted to try and modify your bag mounts and shift them back about 3/4 of an inch then they would fit. I did not want to move my bags back and had them put the old ones back on. The lower supports had to be replaced after going back to the original guards

The mounting point in the rear of the '14 models is different than earlier models, definetly mods needed as stated above. I have a 2013 and 2014, obvious difference in the two.
