Default [2010 WG] Budget Daymaker Alternative

I've been unhappy with my Wide Glide's stock headlight and I didn't want to spend $400 on the Daymaker. I found
this on Amazon this on Amazon
, it fits perfectly, and it looks very similar to the Daymaker. I haven't ridden with it yet, but the light appears to be much whiter than the stock bulb.

Yeah, I'm running the same Amazon light on my Snorkster.
I'm thrilled to death with it. Not a single complaint. Much improved night vision.

Put the exact same critter on my Wide Glide; bright as hell, and I do like it. Of course my '13's CANbus decided my headlight is now out if the headlight is on low beam so the electrical diagnostic light comes on. I've been keeping the headlight on high beam so that red diagnostic light doesn't overload my OCD but I will add load to the low beam circuit so the CANbus sees enough voltage and it keeps the diagnostic light happy

I was always reluctant to buy one of the cheaper ones for something as important as a headlight but a friend bought one and its held up for quite a while now. The diagnostic code tin cup mentioned would drive me insane though. I suffer from CDO, it's the same thing as OCD, except the letters are in alphabetic order as they should be.
