Anyone using a tool bag or fork bag with a quick release windshield?

I'm trying to figure out what size tool or fork bag will fit with my quick release windshield on my 2010 Wide Glide. I bought a bag at Walmart to use as a guide for size before I ordered a nicer one online. This bag is 10 inches wide,5 inches tall and 4 1/4 inches deep. The problem is the opening underneath the headlight is only about 7 1/2 inches wide. In order to open the bag it would have to hang down a little lower for clearance. I know there needs to be some space between the bottom of the bag and the top of the fender but I'm not sure how much is enough. I have been searching for a narrower bag but haven't found much except for 9 inches wide. Can anyone tell me what they are using that seems to work. I mainly want to put my cap and sunglasses inside the bag. Thanks for your comments.

I'm not sure, but I'll be interested in the responses to your post.

This one attaches to your windshield w/the center bolt, and the other is a tool bag, you can go either way.

You spend $15148 plus tax on a new Wide glide and go to walmart for a tool bag. Harley got em to fit that bike for $40
