Hi Twolanerider, I bought that part, and it is one of those peel and stick ones so I should be able to add it myself, but I thought I would just ask you what trick did you use to ensure that it was straight?   [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Yo TwoLane,
This is off topic and really deserves a separate thread but since you take such great pics, could you possibly snap a few of your detachable radio antenna setup and how it attaches to the Tourpak, etc.?

went ahead and installed the new spots http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/gma_product.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524448767297&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302290051&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374302290051&bmUID=1112071795205&bmLocale=en_US

I noticed that the lights aren't really much brighter But the light beam is more spread out, covering the whole road from curb to curb and looking at the front of the bike
the lights seem more brilliant...yall do yourself a favor and upgrade to the new spots..
         thnx twolane for the thread                        [smiley=cool3.gif]

I like the looks of them on there too.  Certainly look better with the headlight than the stock spotlights did.  Glad someone else is sharing the wealth  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Gona pick mine up this weekend.

I guess it got lost in the thread but I asked earlier what bulb number was used. Reason being is the bulbs may be available in a silverstar version. I installed a silverstar bulb in my headlight and found it to be much brighter. Silverstar bulbs are made by Sylvania usually available at your local autoparts store and are dot legal.

ya know Reo i didn't think to look at the bulb # on the new spots......Actually i never even thought to change  the headlight bulb...I wonder if there is a halogen replacement bulb that has the blue tint to it? i forget the name of the bulbs i put in my car,but they have the blue tint and are really bright..what is the number of the sylvania bulb you put in ?  i can get the # of the bulb from the spots if ya like    [smiley=cool3.gif]

Ya if you have the number on the passing light spots, please post it.

I  took the info off the back of the plastic  bulb housing ,,,,hope this helps  [smiley=cool2.gif]

 GE    881L    12V
H27W/2   E1   24G

Thanks Cann,

Dont see a direct replacement for the 881L, I'll try and do some reserch and try and find an upgraded bulb for this. The 880st or 889st might work but not sure at this point. From what I pulled up so far the 881L looks to be possibly a newer gm spec.

[Cannibus_Man]

That would

today i put the  silverstar lights  in ,  Thanks  to Reo for the help on the bulb #'s  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  

I used  the 9003st for the main headlight and the  880st for the spots.
 the 880st  has a different  plug socket angle  but it still fits  and is somewhat snug but not that bad  in my opinion

[Tonys]

Hey Cann. thanks for the info and pics. hard to tell the difference in the pic. what do you think? is there a noticeable difference?
