Default Direct headlight replacement for '99 FXDX?

I'm looking to replace the front 5 1/2" (please correct me if I'm wrong on the size) stock headlight with a clearer, diamond-cut style like the newer models. Does anybody know of a replacement kit or lense? Anybody have any suggestions as to getting some more light on the front end? Thanks in advance.

Ashley

My brother and I both have put the newer HD lens in ('01 FXD and FXDXT). Much better. Just a newer part from the dealer...bolts in. Could try a stronger/more efficient bulb as well, but I haven't yet.

I was under the impression that the setup on my '99 was different. I had checked the HD catalog and it said the newer style light was a direct replacement for '00-current Dynas.Thanks for the help.
