Wide Glide Speedo Glare

Is there an aftermarket cowl/billet cowl that one can fit over the Wide Glide Speedo?

My riding buddy has a 2010 model and it is a superb machine, much easier to ride than my couch, but you simply cannot see the warning lights i.e. 6th gear or low on fuel when riding on a sunny day, of which we have MANY in South Africa.

I also find it irritating having to look down at the idiot light bar for indicators, neutral engaged etc, especially whilst in traffic and on the move.
 
An off-the-wall idea, but ..........

I have seen guys buying the new WG consoles for use on Street Bobs. If this is correct, he could put a factory Low Rider or add-on 4" tach on his dash in place of the speedo. Then move the speedo and indicator lights to the bar/clamp with a Super Glide or Sportster type mount. I am not familiar with the bar or clamp set-up on the newer WGs, so adapters may be needed to make the speedo mount work.
