Tour Pak
#22
Had the same issue as you. Ended up buying a $100 tour pak from Mutazu. Ordered accessory winged back rest, but sent it back as G/F prefered the stock included smaller backpad.
Installed the Harley 4 point mounting system, and Harley tour pak bracket.
Bolted on the cheapie Mutazu and was amazed at how well it worked.
It included all the goodies, such as back rest, cable stays, locks, hinges. Complete and ready to go for $100. I added a chrome top rack, and it has worked out just fine.
Looks well integrated for the Street Glide look, and holds both our helmets when we are not packed for a long ride.
My intent was to see if the tour pak was really for me. It spends most of it's time hanging on the wall for when I ride solo, but clips on in only 1 minute when she wants to hop on.
No need for a standard sissy bar back rest, as this does double duty as well.
The Harley trunk is much better constructed, but I was willing to invest the $100 to see if I would really use it all that much.
For me, I now enjoy the convertibility and styling. I did not go with a bunch of lights, dual antenna whips. (My stubby antenna works well enough for me), upgraded hinges, matching locks.
It does not compare to the Harley Brand. I totally understand why most people would want to step up to a unit that matches the quality of the rest of the bike, but for many, this would get the job done, and make for very happy passengers.

Go with the real HD goods and you won't be disappointed, and won't run into other issues with aftermarket. I did the full boat - quick removable king tour pak, wraparound arm rests, led airwing lights, boom audio. It was a chunk of change for sure, but well worth it in the end. I don't regret the money spent at all.
