Just installed the DAYMAKER LED s on my 2012 FLTRXSE. WOW, what a difference. It's like a BIG Improvement and worth the $$ to me. $ 599.94 ( 15 % off at my local dealer , I.B.E.W. discount) and $ 147.00 at BARB s H-D to install. Highly Recommend these!!!

FUGLY is in the eye of the beholder. I installed them on my bike. I love them and think they look bad-ass!

I have learned not to disagree with Simon(to much), ....so bright azz? YES. fuggly? Maybe not so much

And I will agree, they look much better on a RG!

Am I the only one who thinks $150 labor to install a headlight is a bit out there?

I sure wouldn't pay that. It is too easy to do yourself.

maia812 · « **Reply #7 on:** February 16, 2013, 11:44:04 PM »

Some may not be comfortable Greg; and that's fine. But it'd bite to spend that much for a half hour's work. Most important of course is that the owner likes the outcome. That's still a lot of beer money though.

2 k is right, buy the stealer installing them, if any things happens it will still be under warranty( which I have alot of time left) . And I was told it takes about 1-1.5 hours to do ,by them time take off fairing, removing old ones , drilling out the holes for mounting new LEDs,wiring, reassembling, and aiming new LEDs. It doesn't sound like a half hour job to me.

Unfortunately, not yet! Bike is still in winter storage, won't be out until at least April as we are in a wind chill warning right now and about 2 feet of snow!!

But they look nice

Can understand paying the labor fee if the intent is getting the product included in the original warranty. I count so little on the MoCo, the dealer network and their warranty handling that's an angle I forget.

ANY ANGLE, any reason the MoCo can find NOT to pay on a warranty, you got that right !!

Much better, a wider and longer beam, much more natural light, expensive, but your putting it on a CVO not a Honda so what the hell!
