You don't have to remove the fairing to adjust the headlight. I added the auxiliary lights. Made a far bigger difference than the daymaker. they fill in the dark spot between the factory high and low beam. The stock headlight alone is a sad joke at best.

Ever thought about adding a light bar. They come in all sizes from different companies. Nothing like being able to see and being seen.

Went with the 7" LED truck lite from napa. Night and day difference over stock, less than half the price of the day maker, and looks great even when it's turned off (I think the daymakers look terrible, personally). 20 minutes to make an adapter for the wiring and it was done.

Are you referencing the daymaker projector? or the daymaker reflector?

The LED ones that are $500+

Not familiar with the difference in the projector or reflector. Only one I've seen people talk about are the daymaker LEDs with the dual filament lookin lens and a massive price tag.

Daymaker upgrade for my 2014 Streetglide. It was a very good improvement!
