Default Police Seat?

After doing a second trip on a rental trike, my wife and I are gravitating towards adding one to our fleet. I ride a retired police bike with the original police seat and absolutely love it. Does anyone know if it's possible to mount a police seat on a trike?

It it's a 2 up seat with the screw in the back, no reason it won't work. If it fits the '09 and up FLH it will fit the TriGlide.

The police seat has a pivot in the front and an air bladder or spring in the rear. It does not mount like a standard two up seat.

Spinner is referring to this very thing, sounds like he's doing some modification to make it happen.
