Default Best option for license plate on Heritage FLSTC or Deluxe??

I'm not seeing many options out there for relocating the license plate on a Heritage. I *hate* how high it sits up on the rear fender. Maybe someone could post pics or ideas on relocating? The best I"ve found so far is Kury's one that replaces the bottom bumper....kinda expensive though. I'm not really looking for a side mount as I have bags..

Thanks!!

Softbrake relocator. $40 or so.

The softbrake relocator moves it below the taillight.

Here's a pic of the softbrake solution on my Heritage. Sorry if you guys are sick of looking at the *** end of my bike, I realize I'm posting this a lot. Note that I bought some cheap chrome acorn nuts to go in the holes where the bracket used to be. Looks fine, but in a couple weeks I'll have a nice Grateful Dead skull fabbed up by Dennis at Top Down Products, lookin forward to that....

+1 on the SoftBrake. Kind of expensive for a sheet of stainless steel but what isn't now days. You will have to figure out a way to light your plate. Softbrake sells that too, again expensive, or maybe go with those lighted mounting bolts.

didn't like the height of the license plate or the turn signals on the heritage so I went with the CycleVisions Eliminator..

here's the pic of the kury curved relo plate that bolts to their turn signal kit. a word of caution though, there is not quite enough clearance between the fender tip for the plat to fit, so the bottom portion is actually resting on that tip, and so far i haven't been able to find an alternative/thinner tip that would allow the plate to be completely flush to the fender. If anyone has any ideas, i'd be grateful.
