Default Cheapest bottom mount headlight setup for changing out FXDL bars
What is the cheapest bottom mount headlight once I replace my FXDL bars? Should I try to find a street bob bracket and light?

emp, did you have the small visor style headlight like on new Low Rider and older Super Glide? I have an 04 FXDI and I hate that eFF'n visor over the light.

You can get a bucket and trim ring fully wired for 60 bucks LED Headlamp Housing Kit-67700093B. It will fit most 3/4 headlamps.

I'd still need to find a mounting system for the lower triple tree, mines a top mount, and I'd rather not drill.

Most of them have a hole predrilled with a cap covering it. You sure you don't? If you do, all you need is the block and a bolt. I may even have one laying around... Let me know.

Awesome, thanks Mchad, I'll take a look when the day breaks. I'm not sure I think most of the 04 & 05's had that visor.

Thanks for the info on the bucket. Still need a cheaper mounting block and bolt. Harley wants $30 for theirs.
