Strange question to ask in a thread that's been talking about it for months. The old fairing is just that. Old. It's design is old. Dated. I'm not going to spend $30-$50K on an overpriced new street glide.

Fairing conv.
Its The VENT! That vent is to the Harley fairing, what the scoop was to the Mustang hood! IMHO
Patsfan, Ive just about got everything together to do the conversion!
Im going with the Biketronics Brackets instead of pods, but everything else the same.
Thanks for the inspiration bro! As was said, if you dont try, youll never know, but wish you had!
Something like that LOL!

I did the swap, a 2017 CVO fairing to my 2010 E-Glide. It was way over planned! I wanted to do this since day one of owning this, my first Harley. I just love and had to have the look of the front "vented" fairing and saw no reason why I couldn't do it.
I have a 2010 FLHTP, got it used with the cop inner fairing. The first mod out was to change the inner fairing to one I could put a stereo in.
I then added an oil temp gauge to the cluster of battery, fuel and oil pressure gauges.
My cheap amazon inner started to vibrate badley at the windshield because it was'nt quite an exact fit, the began to pull out the 1/4-20
screw plugs.
Next came the cracks inside, along the webbing intended to stiffen the whole assembly. By then I had just about all the parts for the swap.
The inner/outer fairings, Biketronics speaker brackets, stereo support brackets and all other hardware.
I took off the stock outer fairing, began labeling all wiring that wasn't stock plug in harness.
I had already thought out the 2010 gauge to 2014-23 inner fairing fab and fit, the real deal was to re-create the 2010 indicator light bar and where on the newer style inner fairing. L.E.D's , wiring and gauge relocation was the answer.
The indicators, left blinker, nuetral, oil press and high beam are on the left and one for right blinker ont the right. (Pics shown)
Custom fabrication, wiring and anything else it takes to get something done is my specialty!!!!
I've got of course a speedo and tach, also four gauges, fuel and battery on the left, oil press. and temp on the right one located on 'fixed' the media door, nice and neat. A double din stereo and the vent. the lower fairing has the custom switch bank for headlight on/off, parking lights, pose lights, stereo screen dimmer and ultracooler fan. If interested, Iv'e got a ton of pics and info.
This swap was clean and well worth the work!

I'm working on doing a 17 to 17 swap from street glide to road glide. Even that is hard to get all the part. You will need all the new mounts internals and all fairings. Your gauges should actually be the same size (I haven't measured) Your gauges won't work and the wiring harness in a 14-17 isn't backwards compatible with a 13. The Rushmore bikes have a can-bus system which is totally different from the earlier bikes. Could someone make it work? Possible. I'd find a friend that has a Rushmore and measure the gauges and headlight to see if there the same size. If so those items should swap over, then you would just need all the hardware as mentioned.
