Default Question about my new Corbin Gunfighter seat

My new Corbin Gunfighter seat will be here pretty soon and I've got a question about how to attach it. My question is what am I supposed to do with the two bolts that attach the rear of the solo seat on my Fat Boy Lo? Are we supposed to remove them and if so how?

it's just a bracket.. wiggle your hand up underneath there and it should come right out.. at least, mine used to fall out constantly until i found those plastic retainers that keep the bolts up..

If you can leave it, leave it. The rear light wiring harness is also held up by that bracket underneath the fender. If you have to remove the bracket, find a way to keep that harness up so the tire doesn't get it.

Yep, but I have a '10 model so it might be different. The wiring comes through the hole in the fender from under the seat, then goes up under that bracket and follows the hump of the fender before splitting off to feed the signals on the sides and the tail. If you don't have wiring being held up on an '11, sweet.
