Can someone give me the approximate dimensions of the I/S trunk?  Doesn't have to be spot on, but would like to know the width side to side, internal height(I know it's not flat like a Tour Pak), and the length front to back. Rather than pay the ridiculous going prices for an I/S item, I'll get a nice sized aftermarket unit for a more down to earth price and it will work just as good.

And, if someone has the I/S saddlebag hardware they would like to sell or swap with me off my Tourer, let me know.

I'm actually using a Tourpak and it works fine... mounted on a luggage rack.

I recently picked up the I/S fender rails and trunk mounting rack, but the trunk itself is ridiculous so I'll either get a HD Tour Pak or similar. Even the Tour Pak's are kinda pricey if you're not careful. Wish I knew which lids fit which boxes, I see a lot of HD lids on Ebay separate from the lower half, figure the box was busted in a fall. And also see boxes independent of the lids, often different colors, just need to know which ones I could buy separate and have them work together.

Basically, it is 25" at the widest point and 22" at the narrowest point, 12" front to back and 13" at the sides where the speakers are, and about 12" deep (but since the lid curves to the rear of the bike, it drops down to 7" at the latch. 

I have some pictures if you are interested.

The one I'm looking at is a Mutazu, looks about like a HD Tourpak, and is 22.83" wide, just over 17" front to back, and 13" high. After measuring the I/S trunk mount it should fit fine. And, it's a heck of a lot cheaper than trying to find an I/S trunk.
