If it was originally installed by the dealer I would think it should be still covered under the original warranty. But I would give them a call and ask. You have nothing to loose asking.

I did the same search and did not find anything cheaper, Joker Machines make and LED setup but it is about $100 more than HD.
Check out the Screaming Eagle version, i just saw them a few days ago on display, the LED has chrome slots around it and looks pretty cool.

The CVO (not SE) version is a different light made to fit under the wider fender needed to cover the 240mm tire on the CVO Fatbob and Softail Springer bikes.
However the chrome cover that they piut on it WILL fit the Tri-Bar that we use for the 200mm fenders.
I don't have the PN handy right now. But if you do a search you should be able to find the thread I started about a month ago with pics and the part number.
Just be prepared for a little sticker shock, if I remember right it was around $140. Seems like a lot of money for a little piece of chromed tin and the reason I haven't gotten one, yet.
On the plus side, it does look really nice.

IMO you would have to disassemble and rebuild....

I love this light. I had it added to my Night Train at the dealership before I picked it up.

I think it's a "must have" add-on for any bike with the bobtail fender.

I love it.

I don't think it would be impossible, but in my opinion its a bit too expensive to go screwing around with.

I put one on my bike right after I got it. I never liked the original because its the same silly lens they put on nearly every other bike they make and just doesn't seem to "fit" the Bobtail fender.

Ditto. Installed right after i took delivery. AWESOME LIGHT! I use is in conjuction with the Biketronics Brake/Turn module(BT400). I didn't want to take away from the look of the tailight so my turn signals are also brake lights but not running lights. When i hit the brake light it suprises some drivers, especially at night but that's a good thing.

My Screamin Eagle Tri Bar arrived yesterday and will be installed over the w/e. Purchased it on ebay from wisconsinhd for $200. I wouldn't recommend buying from them though as it took almost 3 weeks to get and they don't respond to email or return calls when your curious on the status of your order.
Agree with every one above. This type of light is a must for the fender. Yeah it can be pricey, but isn't everything that's desirable? Besides, compared to other cool upgrades, this is probably the cheapest one!

Is the license-plate mount removeable from the tri-bar LED tail-light?
Without cutting...
