Default Saddlebag Fillers-Will they work with antenna relocation kit? Help

I am thinking about getting saddlebag fillers for my FLHTK. I have to tour pac relocation kit installed along with the antenna relocation kit.
Will the saddlebag fillers interfere with the antenna location when the tour pac is off. It looks to me that the fillers do not have an access port for the antennas. any ideas?

If you relocated your antenna to between the bag and fender,you're gonna need to mount it somewhere else.For a short time I removed the rails on my 09 Classic and installed the filler strips,I mounted the antenna to the fender strut using the mounting bracket from a CVO Street Glide.

Don't the street glides have fillers with a hole in the left side for the antenna? I just put a biketronics stereo in my EG standard and the hidden antenna does not work very well, want to put an antenna on as well.

It was a 2011 CVO Street Glide that I saw and ordered the mounting bracket from.Maybe the Canadian version has a different mount?

What year is your Standard?If it is an 09 you can get the antenna mount bracket out of the QD Kit,IIRC it was less than $10, to mount it between your fender and bag.

Thanks for the info. I will have to relocate the relocation of the antenna. Thought it would be easier.

Consider a behind the fairing antenna. Use a splitter so you still have the cable that goes to your tourpac when you have it on.
I use a Metra powered and it works fine.

Mine is a 99 EG standard, the cable is there that goes from the faring to the back, my biketronics system came with a hidden under the faring antenna but it does not work very good, want to put an antenna on the back but not sure what will work.

Harley sells the Antenna Relocation Kit (76561-09). This kit moves the antenna from the location between the saddlebags and rear fender. It allows you to easily switch between your detachable Tour-PakŪ luggage, a detachable passenger backrest, or the clean look of a stock FLHT or FLTR. 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.
