Default Auxiliary riding lights on Fat Boy

I am considering putting these on my 2015 Fat Boy. I would be putting on the Daymaker lights. I have always liked the way the Heritage looks with these. Besides the cost, which I am OK with, are there any issues I should know about with these lights?

Flip the LED auxiliary bulbs and you will see through turns MUCH better at night.

I love the auxiliary lights on my fatty. I went with the Custom Dynamics true beams instead of the daymakers. Can see much better through wooded areas and I think they make the fat boy look better. The kit is nice, but I don't understand why they supply chrome trim rings instead of black with the black kit.

On a stock Heritage, the passing lamps are wired to only work with the low beams. There is a separate harness from HD that allows them to be on with the high beams as well.

If you install them, make sure they are wired to be on with both low and high beams.
