Do you already have the bags attached? If not, will also need to relocate your turn signals. I do not like the HD turn signal relo stock.

I also installed the bags and detachable sissy bar on a 2007 FXDC. Pretty easy install. When all is mounted, it looks pretty slick.

Downside:
- if only bags mounted, no sissy bar, then there is a bit of a gap between bag and fender.
- If neither is mounted, the studs extend pretty far out, about an inch. See pic.
- Over time, I think the brackets get out of alignment if the bags are heavy and can be a bitch to have them lined up and dropped into the studs.

Try the search function. There is more info on this topic than you can imagine.

Personally I have the QD sissy bar and I didn't want anything making it all stick out any wider. I knew I was gonna have the bags on all the time except to clean so I went with a mod using threaded rod.

If you only want to remove them for cleaning then you may want to consider the threaded rod mod.

The QD Bracket thing has been a long running discussion here. IMHO, all the QD setups make the bags stickout much further, and I believe they are more vulnerable to theft.
