Thinking about getting the smoked front aux light for the front of my ultra to complete the smoked out look! HD book shows smoked out bulbs called smoked with lens optics?64.00$ anyone have or use these? Im thinking they look clear when on and dark when off! Are they the same output any input or pics would help! thanks

 

During the day they still look smoked when on at night can't really tell have the on my roadking front and rear

 

Still dont understand what ''Lens Optics'' is supposed to mean guess Ill call the dealership and inquire! Thanks

 

I have them on my 09 FLHX & bigboy's correct w/the look. These are actually brighter than my headlamp's low beam, when on. They have the standard "spade" connectors so if your stock aux lights are the same it's a 1-for-1 swap.

FYI, lens optics is a fancy way of saying how the lens/bulb reflect light.

 

wow $64. I need to check the p&a catalog but I have the smoked lens on all my lights on the ultra and I thought the front was like $25 or so. Came with smoked lens and a white bulb with the spade connector. 2 minute swap.

 

I had them on my last two bikes and liked the look very much but I just changed over to the regular bulbs that you can change just the bulb. The smoked ones are sealed beam, if it burns out you have to replace the whole thing.

I had two or three replaced under warranty and I think I replaced an additional two after the warranty expired. You can replace just the bulb in the non-smoked ones with a Wallmart bulb for $4 or $5, if I remember right. They take 881 black tip 12.8 volt 27w or 35w.

 

Smoke lenses and badlands bulbs are an awesome combination and very bright

 

They are sealed beams, if they burn out you need to replace the whole unit and they are only sold in pairs.
They look good but I have burned through 2 pairs since last fall so I am switching to something else.

 

You might look into the headlight protection films, they are like thick stickers and come in a lot of different colors. If you do not like it peel it off. The better quality ones do not affect the transmitted light too bad, I can hardly tell with the bright yellow I have been running for years. Way cheaper than new bulbs.

 

Thanks guys for all the great info,yah sounds like harleys makin out at 64bucks a pop if they burn out that fast,all look at other options listed thanks
