Your link didn't work for me. I found this https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-glide...ihed-pics.html


I added the pics of rear brake lights and LED lights on stock WG Bracket.

Great job on this one ... I just don't have any talent in that kind of fabrication ... would you consider making/selling another bracket? I have the WG License plate bracket for my Fat Bob, but don't have the resources to fabricate the bracket. I like how yours turned out. Any issues on sharp cornering???

why not just mount a nice aftermarket side mount designed to be installed on the axle or rear belt guard. Is the Harley mount extremely less expensive or something? Sure is worlds uglier than a nice side mount(especially a curved one).

No clearance issues, on the jiffy there's still 6" clearance.

The reason I went with the HD WG plate is it's HD, Florida horizontal law, it folds away, has built in LED's and like the look and finish. Oh yeah cost me $40 total parts. Also wanted to get the lisence plate off the fender to possibly chopp the fender or cut up 10 WG fender.

ah it is much less expensive. By the way, the horizontal plate law was reversed in Florida months ago.

Default Law reversed?

I wasn't aware on the reversal on the FL horizontal plate law change. I can rotate the plate to vertical with the turn of the backing plate. Seen it done on an Iron, just hanging down. I'll have it sticking up. Thanks

There I will make another connection to be able to disconnect for service (tire). Then along the swing arm to the 2010 WG stock LED lights. Ran up to the dealer today and clears and is stable. I plugged the hole in the fender with the HD logo caps for the seat and one for the aux light.

This setup didn't work out. The vibration was too much for the mounting braket. The fabricated aluminum bracket cracked.
I actually upgraded to the 2013 Slim style lisence plate braket. I believe it is the same as the 2014. I hope this helps.
