I put an Adjure tri-bar with black dot on my 04 fxsti- What a difference! Had to turn the rubber bumper inside around for it to fit. Prolly the best $75 I've spent.

I highly recommend the HD LED. It is $525, but I have one on both my bikes and believe it to be the best money I have spent.

Mine came out to closer to a hundred after adding some extra stuff and overnight shipping. The point is.... You can get a good kit for under a hundred bucks (in this case the one from HIDCOUNTRY is 38 bucks). A lot of bike shops will try and sell you an identical kit for 150-200 dollars. HID's used to cost a lot more but they're really getting cheap now that the market is being flooded with them. I remember years ago when just trying to find an HID replacement bulb would cost 75 bucks. Now you can get them for 20.

Oh, and I ended up buying a new headlight for my bike the other day. My stock headlight bucket was too shallow for the ballast and wiring for the HID kit i bought online. MOST bikes will have deep enough buckets for all that stuff, but my night train had a very small bucket, like maybe 3 inches of depth to it. I ended up buying this headlight (mine looks slightly different). It comes as is in the pic and already has all the HID stuff inside (ballast, wires, etc.), so you just swap out your old light with this one and you're good to go. I'll get some pics of it today. It's definitely a different look though. This light looks like a bullet train or something (about 9 inches deep).
