The antenna does not come out of the holes in the filler. But is extended behind the saddlebags. Fits '09-later FLHX, FLTR, FLTRU and FLTRX models (except FLTRUSE, FLTRXSE/2, FLTRSE3/4 and FLHXSE/2/3 models) equipped with Detachable Two-Up Luggage Rack P/N 54215-09. Does not fit with Nostalgic Saddlebag Guard Rail Kit P/N 91286-10.

I used it on my Road Glide with the rear fascia because the antenna came under the Tour Pak when installed. I later moved the antennas in the fairing because I found the antennas got in the way when I removed and installed the Tour Pak.

Here is a link to the Harley installation instructions.
Concise and correct. Thank you very much!

I have a 2012 FLHTK with the saddlebag fillers already installed. I just ordered the detach kit for my tour pak and also ordered the Ultra harness kit which includes the CB antenna relocation kit and lighting harness.

Do you have a part number for the CVO mounting bracket?

Thanks

Sorry I don't have the bag or box the bracket came in,so no part #.The dealer looked it up and ordered it for me a couple years ago.

I also use the fairing power antenna. It works perfect, but it is for FM only. It doesn't pick up AM stations. My stereo is Bluetooth, so most of the time I use Pandora off my phone.

Hi Wheelman38

I don't know if you have found a way to install the filler strips and still use the antenna relocation kits that came with TP detach kit. If you haven't I just completed mine today. I already had the filler strips installed before I purchased the TP detach kit and I did not want to give them up as they look real good on the bike. I found a Pingel Kit # 62145 antenna relocation kit that works with the filler strips. Their bracket is a very simple design. So simple I made my own from 1" X 1/8' flat aluminum stock, one for the radio and one for the CB. With both antennas being mounted below the fillers I can leave the antennas on always with the tour pak on or off so there is no need to play around with the antenna wires each time you want to take you tour pak off or back on. Worked like a charm for me and it looks OEM as well and cost about $5.00 and three hour of my time.

I was wondering if one could use the rubber grommets from a street glides setup and just put holes in the fillers in the location used by streets life?

Default is the cb and FM antenna cable long enough

Hello.
I am doing exactly the same setup as yours. I'm wondering about the length of the cable. Did you have to use extenders?

I have a 2015 Road Glide. I removed the antenna bracket. Took the antenna and routed it up under the seat and up under the gas tank. Bought another rubber plug for the hole in the rear fender fascia and every thing works great and no whip antenna showing. Price of the modification....zero.
