Just think, it'd be almost twice that much if MFG hadn't left the way he did or if Howie had stayed .

Good point!

I wonder if the kit includes instructions on how to make the garage door opener work with the new LED's installed.
I'm assuming that, similar to HID lights, these LED's draw a lot less power than the standard halogen lights so they would need a workaround for the opener just like what's needed if you replace the stock bulbs with HID's.

Just left Brian's Harley Davidson new LED's amazing.

Thanks OhioBellBoy . . .

BTW . . . Has anyone ever told you that you have quite possibly one of the finest motorcycles that HD has ever built. Of course I am not prejudiced in  any way shape or form

Seems I've heard that before 



I'd love to see the output of the LEDs but I'm not sure I'm sold on the looks of them. For that kind of money, I could buy plenty of the PIAA bulbs for mine. JMO.

GPOPVET -- First I want to say they look awesome.  I was at my dealer today and they had two sets of the Chrome and Black on the wall ready to sell and install.  My dealership has not installed a set yet, how many hours labor did they charge you to install?  I got hold of the first couple of pages and saw that the outer fairing has to be removed and some minor modifications done.  It looks like you have the Black and Chrome kit.  

So tell us, how did they do at night?

Much wider view, my Ultra had them but not as bright. Labor was 1 hour taking fairing off not a big job for Harley mechanics.

I just replaced the MoCo originals with PIAA replacement bulbs. They have excellent output without crashing the bank account. They even allow you to select different color range for the bulbs. Be sure to purchase H4 bulbs rated in the 60/55 Watt range. (They will have the output equivalency of a bulb rated at 135/125 Watts.

The cost on Amazon was approx $37.00 each. After installation and reaiming the headlights, I am very happy with the output. I am also happy I didn't have to spend about $600 more for LED headlamps.

BTW . . . There were no modifications needed for this install.

Is this the one?

Yes, this is the one I installed. Actually, x2.

Just ordered x 2 from Amazon. I will try these before $700 + install on the HD LED's. Thanks!

You're gonna love them. At only 10% of the cost of LEDs, well worth the light output. Might not have the "cool factor" but the savings on these will allow you to spend it elsewhere.

TIP . . . After installing the PIAAs, grab a buddy to help and check/adjust your headlight alignment. Mine came from the factory aiming pretty low. You will definitely get much better coverage with the headlights properly aligned.

Yeah, mine are so low now my low beams barely exist and I ride with my high beams on and no one has flashed me yet. However, dealer checked them and said they were within spec....

I picked my set of black LED head lights up from the dealer last week.  Drop bike off tonight for installation. Think black will look better with my red/black 2011 cvo.
