I already asked this question for the bunker one. Gpmucci said that only the Hepco & Becker high , the touratech and the Yamaha Genuine (with some adjustment) are compatible.
Except the OEM which fix itself to the engine, the other two have only 2 fixation points. None of those three are OK for me.

For the Heed the problem I think is the lower fixation which seen to be too high to fit together with the high one of the skidplate. Maybe with some DIY unbending and soldering another bracket you could fit them a little lower on the frame. On the right side, It seem possible, on the left side the coolant reservoir could make it a little bit tricky. The outback motortek crashbar fix itself under it for example but i don't know if there is room for that on the gpmucci skidplate.

I have the very same question in my mind right now since my T7 is waiting at the dealer as we speak.

I put that here but if we are a lot to want this compatibility to append, we could probably ask Heed for a custom series with the modification I mention and gpmucci for a deeper cut on the left side 😀 . Don't have a lot of hope, though.

And... I know in the best in paint.😆
