WAYNE:  what is too high?  I assume that the flat part of the beam should be about 2ft off the ground then if you are going off a wall measurement?  How exactly did you determine or measure your height?  I prefer a portion of the beam to be on the road about 2-3 car lengths in front of the bike?  Typically that would be about 2ft off the ground against a wall 15ft away?  I just called the HD dealer, who knows when i will get my bike back.  They tied the clutch, ran a pressure test and everything checked out OK.  They bled it again and now have the let the bike sit to see if it loses pressure.  They won't start replacing parts until it fails again.  I understand this process because HD won't pay them the time or cost of the parts unless they follow procedures.  It could be a while before i get my bike back, if they decide to replace the clutch/master cylinder unit, they will have to order it because they don't stock the parts in black...thats 3-4 business days.  I want to get these lamps on, but I guess I either have to wait, or maybe have them throw them on for free for making me go through this crap for the 3rd time?

There is a alignment instructions in the box for the lights, thats about all there good for, every thing else says refer to service manuel.

All I can talk about is the LED headlight, there is a direction sheet with the headlight. The only thing the sheet is good for is alignment, but its a piece of cake to install and align the headlight. You will know if its too high the first time you ride at night, the oncomming traffic will tell you. I lowered the beam about 1 1/2" below the the suggested alignment height just to be sure and had no problems.

Lights installed,

Awesome!  My bike is still in the fricking shop for the hydrallic clutch, but minus the dog, I can at least see what the lights look like even though mine are still in the box!  Thanks!!

The dog looks cute....

How about the indicators ?

I'm thinking if the aux lights are black the indicators should be black too.

MC88 the indicators are smoked lens just they don't looked very smoked, but they are "dot approved".

It's hard to tell from the picture, the bike looks great though.  I have LED turn signals too with white bulbs (Illegal but they look good) and smoked lenses.  I hope to get my scoot back this week, but I had knee surgery on Friday so theres not much I can do but look at it anyway.  Did you get the Y splitter from HD, and if so, does the remote garage door opener work?

[smkblwr]

yes installed the y splitter, it should work as normal. but i dont have an open so i dont know if it worked in the first place hahaha.

If the housing for the aux lights is black I meant the indicator housing should be black.

Is the housing for aux lights black or just the bulb?  I have not seen any photos of these from side on.

[smkblwr]

MC88 the passing lamp and turn signal housings came black factory, but the trim rings were chrome for some reason. i will get a side pic.
