Mustang drive backrest install help.
I just got a Mustang removable driver backrest kit for my 2009 streetglide. It is very nice, but it came with no hardware and no instructions. Is there anyone on here who has installed this and can tell me what I need? Do I just need a few 14"-20 thumb screws or do I need something else?
Any help is appreciated.

On my 07 EGC there were 3 mounting points...Two bolts on top of the rear fender where you remove the nuts, set the backrest down on the studs and replace the nuts. 3rd mounting point is a hole in the cross piece of the frame itself just behind the battery. You should have a clip and another bolt that came with the back rest. slide the clip over the hole, align the front leg of the backrest mount with the hole and screw the bolt in. mine is very secure, hope this helps.

The backrest I bought fits 07, 08 and 09 according to Mustang website. Mustang part # 79067 fits both

As you install you will see a screw on the back of the mount. It is spring loaded and if you play with the tension you'll hit a point where the back rest can slide up and down and stop at each grove in the post, maybe four or five height positions. It pops completely out when you want and leaves nothing showing. It will also fold completely down for you to swing your leg over and has about and inch of foward/backward adjustment.

and move it up and down to get the right height . It moves easily but stays put at each at each groove. You'll feel a click when it engages each stop.
