    The backrest mount and backrest is a life saver. Only problem is the mount will only go in the closest two holes. It hits the hard plastic seat support and causes me to sit a little farther forward than I wanted. But my back couldn’t be happier

    Obviously you need this part if you install a rider backrest. It is sturdy and well made.

    On my 98 Electra glide why does it seem to angle the backrest forward? The mount follows the front arc of the fender. It doesn't seem right at all. Perhaps it was installed improperly? Can I get a copy of the installation instructions? Thanks

    • Answer:
      Hello Eric, Installation instructions are available under Details tab. Located under product description. Thanks blairmke

    I've installed this on my 07 Street Glide with the stock seat and it will only install at the second hole I need it to be in the last hole can I cut the inner structure of the seat to make it fit without compromising the structure of the seat ??

    • Answer:
      Hi Dragrcr, Harley-Davidson would not recommend modification of the seat. As you have mentioned, it could potentially compromise the structure of the seat. TheBronzeFonz
