Default 08 fatboy passenger floorboard help

OK so need to mount passenger floorboards. I have V&H big shots and want chrome mounts. My HD parts guy says that only HD 50399-07a will work.
Not only is it black only; but when I go to put them on the right side bolt won't work as my stock exhaust is gone, making the partially threaded bolt too long. Does anyone know of a chrome mount that will work HD or otherwise?

Thanks in advance

Really, no one has non factory exhaust and floor boards on their fatboys?

Disneydave,

I'm assuming that your talking about the extensions and mount that the floorboards or pegs mount too. I have the Chrome and rubber "mini-floorboards" with V&H Big Shots and those mounts (stock) are black. I've looked thru the catalog for chrome extensions and didn't see anything except for item 51039-05 "Passenger Footpeg Supports-Chrome" on page 266. These would work for my situation, just not worth $128 IMO. Not sure if that helps, but thought I would give it a try and help out a fellow Kansan...

Good Luck Buddy

I have chrome passenger mounts on my '07 FatBoy. When I had my Samsons on it, I just went to the local hardware store and got a grade 8 bolt of the appropriate length to mount it with. I believe they are Custom Chrome mounts. They look identical to the black factory ones, just chrome.
