Default Lets see some headlights
Now that I have my entire front end finished my stock headlight is looking a bit out of place. Just when I thought I was done!!!

Please show some pictures of your non stock headlight and where did you get it. I want to order something this week and its impossible to know what it looks like until its too late.

I went cheap and easy and got the Visor trim ring for the stock light. It really helps the light out alot IMO, for around $30 and 5 minutes of work.

Nice replies!!!
The trim ring really does look a lot better but I love the fatboy light. That might look great on my wide front end. Did that light mount right up?

Yup, used the stock mounting block, and the stock wiring harness. Pulled the terminals out of the plug in the backbone and pulled the wires out through the stock housing. Reused them in the FB housing, bought it off e-bay.
