There are so many different ones on the market now. From Really cheap junk to not cheap at all.
It depends on the look you are going for. If you are looking for the space age look, JW Speaker makes them for HD. Check out JW Speaker web site, see if there is something you like, then look for them on eBay and Amazon.
Truck Lite makes the more "normal" Led lights. My headlight is a Truck Lite and aux lights are HD that match head light.

Hi All, new to this forum. Just picked up a 2012 FB Lo used for a great price. I'm sure getting some great ideas how or what I need to purchase to make it fit me better by looking at all your bikes here.

Not really sure if I like the black headlight trim ring or the chrome better.

I think you should keep the Chrome one on your bike as it goes with your look and sell me your Black powdercoated one for my FB as mine is all Blacked out.

So I'm thinking I just deal with the riding position and get a more comfortable seat (most aftermarkets push you forward with more cushion from what I've read). I've also considered the hideous looking HD tallboy seat. Any thoughts? Yeah I've read about every seat thread and post on this forum. Also I'm about 6'3 and 215lbs 36 inch inseam

I really wish I could justify having my Lo AND a touring bike in the stable!!
I'm surprised MCC couldn't help you out. They redid my Badlander seat to get me down and back and I can sit on it for a full tank without any issues. I have an Ultimate, but its a two up seat. Great product.
