Thumbs up to Custom Dynamics
My Deluxe came stock with a tombstone light powered by an 1157 bulb. Obviously better visibility was needed, and I chose Custom Dynamics for a complete package. LED's all the way around, with rears converted to tail/turn/stop functions.
The results are impressive and, in my opinion, well worth the $320 invested. I also upgraded to Daymakers up front, and the lighting makes the bike as visible as I can reasonably expect it to be.
CD has some outstanding products - the bike had LED's up front when I bought it from another manufacturer, and they paled in comparison. To anyone looking for increased presence on the road, I highly recommend this company!

Great company. Awesome customer service and they stand behind their products. A few of the LEDs went out on one of my turn signals and everything was resolved with one phone call. . No runaround . . . No unnecessary bs. Replacement was in my mailbox within two days.

I still say that my CD LED's, plus an additional LED run/brake light under my fender (where the reflector used to be) is one of the top three "best bang for the buck" mods I've done to my Slim - the other two being a Shotgun Shock and a V&H Fuelpak3.
The rear lights are painfully bright - hell, the run lights are now brighter than the stock brake lights were - and when you hit the brakes it's like "holy sh*t!".
People don't tailgate like they used to. I'm telling you, they stay back - way back.
But as bright as they are, they still only help with people who are actually paying attention when they drive - unfortunately, even these won't help against nitwits on cell phones. but at least it's better than nothing.
And the company stands behind their products 100%. No games, no hassle.
Definitely some of the best $$ I've spent so far.
I will buy them again...
This picture (above) was taken outside in my driveway, on a bright, sunny afternoon.
They're so bright I can't even get a decent picture when they're on...

Dittos to jam346. Tail function is brighter than stop used to be, and it's rigged to flash 4 before remaining on.
I check mirrors frequently, and it's amusing to see the change. Drivers begin backing off before they used to, and if I'm not sure I just let off and hit the brakes again.
I agree 100% - these things are great.

Getting r/s/t lights on my Blackline was the first mod I did. And I got them from CD. Great company and even better customer service. I had about 5-6 lights go out on my front turn signal. So I wrote to them, included a picture and got a new one within a week.
