I just got one. LOVE THIS FREAKING LIGHT! And...they are specific for either a nacelle or oem headlamp. But they have both a clear or black light for either one. The web site only lists the nacelle black, but they do have both. I got the black one for my black LO and once the trim ring gets back from the powder coater, I can take a pic for you all.

They had double VIP day and the light had a very small mark on the bulb (well...at least enough to make a deal) so I got 30% off. So it was about $350. Kuryakyn has one that'll run you $300. I prefer true HD parts though when I can get them.

The instructions state the "headlamp kit requires up to a 3.75 A current from the electrical system. This may be less than OE (original equipment) electrical draw which may be 5-6 A."

When you huys are mentioning the "black" led, you are referring to the back housing in the light correct? So they make a chrome/slilver one and a black one?

Yes. And the black one really seems to fit nicely on a black bike. Too bad HD hasn't been smart enough to make a black trim ring yet. I've got mine at the powder coaters right now. It'll look really nice in a few days when the chrome ring is gone and black bigger one is around it.
