Default Driving lights

I'm wanting to add a set of driving lights for better visibility. I've been looking/looking and found this kit:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/290624928254...84.m1423.l2649

Hoping maybe someone is running this setup or some other advice?
This kit seems a tad 'pricey' at $300. I'd like similar but less expensive, I just don't know what to look for.....
Anyway, thanks

I just got these - they were inexpensive and easy to install. They're effective - probably more effective than driving lights right next to the headlight (better triangle).

I run the Dyna aux light kit for 39mm forks 69284-05:



They sometimes show up at Ebay.

Another option is a Softail lightbar & home made adapters:

Thanks Rene. I like that set-up. One did show up on ebay, but it's on the way to me now.

Are you talking about the ones with the amber inside and white led ring on the outside? If so does that add good light?

Yup. I didn't buy them for night riding, as I don't do much of that. I bought it for daytime visibility for cagers. They won't be as bright as an auxiliary light kit though...

Just an FYI. I run my spots all the time on my Ultra. And cagers still act like I am invisible. So don't forget that you'll still be vulnerable.

Good luck.

The kit I bought doesn't have visors for the fixtures. I'd like to find a pair.

Thanks for the link Rene. There are a lot of 'em! Can't tell if there are the type with visor or not tho. Most photos aren't very good. Would you know the HD# for the visor type trim-rings? (like those on your bike)
