Daymakers are pretty good. A friend has them on his Electra Glide Ultra and the difference is -if you'll excuse the pun- night and day. Very bright stuff!

Thumbs up Daymaker

Extra wire is for other models like the Road King. I did the same as you for my 2014 SGS. I got mine for $419, it installed in less than 15 minutes. You do have to re align it according to the instructions in the shop manual. For those thinking about getting one, depending on your model you may need an adapter harness.

The local Tacoma dealership also ran a 20% off all lighting sale so I took advantage and got the day maker. Combined that with all the reward points I saved up on parts and work I had done while I was deployed, which seriously offset the cost.

Been 2 days with the new light and yea this thing is bright as hell! Way better then the stock light. It's making me feel bad for riding around with my brights on, now I leave them off until I start splitting lanes and they go on again

Oh Man, hat's off to you, reaching back for Mothra cracked me up

hmm, its $100 less online at Kutter than my local dealer…might have to try one of these too. expensive for a light, but sounds like you guys like it.
does this updated version have as harsh of a cutoff line as the older version? i heard its pretty scary leaned over in turns because the light goes like this (/) and doesn't light up the turn?

Ive been thinking about swapping my duals for a single but I didn't want to give up the extra lighting. You guys think a single Day Maker will be as bright or possible brighter than the stock duals on a Fat Bob?
