Bought the Sunpie kit from Amazon and couldn't be happier. Super bright at night and I could buy 3-4 sets before I even come close to the money of a Daymaker.

Had anyone actually compared a Sunpie to Harley's Daymaker? I have Harley's and do a lot of night riding. It is really, really good.

My dad has the daymaker on his Street glide special. Comoared them the other night. Other than price, found that his was just a tad more on the white color spectrum. But being side by side, you couldnt tell a true difference when it came to which is brighter.

This is my Sunpie with low beam and the two 4" day lights.

Are those the darker sets of Sunpie? Debating on the clear or the dark version and like your look

That is correct. When i looked them up on Amazon, they had the black set and the chrome. Went with the black. And thank you! She is a work in progress.

I'm thinking of ordering a set of these, wondering if there's much difference in light from the black to the chrome. Curious if the chrome ones would be a tad brighter or not. Like the look of the black ones better tho.

I've had the Sunpie on my Deuce since last year. I'm happy with it and have had no issues. It's a whole lot better than the stock light. I tried 4-5 other bulbs and while they were a little better they weren't great.
