    Has anyone tried to put a late model Fatbob (dovtail) guard on a Wide Glide, or the opposite. Do they fit witout modification?

    Also, does anything else need to go with it. I know the brake light would but would any of the wiring loom also need to go, or anything else? Would the rear strut arm covers also be interchangable?

    If so, does anyone have a gloss black guard in perfect nick, brake light, and chrome stut covers (for my black ones) they would like to swap off my 2012 Wide Glide? If so pm me.

    Thanks dyna gliding and sdeepdz.

    Both bit of info have been very halpful. It looks like this can all be done with just some minor rewiring. Now I just need to find someone who would like to swap parts. All the other posts I have read on styling about guards suggests that the chopped fender off my bike is more popular then that older looking ddove tail guard so I am hopefull.

    Again, thanks for your help.
