Default LED Lighting

I am looking at converting all turn signals and brake to LED on a '12 Deluxe. I am wondering what are your experiences, problems, etc. with certain brands. Thanks in advance!

LEDs are the best mod I have done. here are two companies that really shine.

http://www.truck-lite.com/wcsstore/tl/splash.html
http://www.customdynamics.com/

The 7 inch TL headlight is plug and play. It really lights up the road forward and both sides. When we ride at night my friends want me forward. I have had zero problems, very happy.

I went with Custom Dynamics and I wish I would have changed them sooner. For my model, I got 4 lights...run/turn/stop and 4 lenses of my choice...clear and all for $140. And they are BRIGHT!

I have the truck-lite headlight and I love it. Other riders always comment on the brghtness and I swear cagers seem to notice me sooner. For the turns and brake I went with all Kuryakyn smoke lense LEDs. I ended up also getting their run/brake/turn module and I am running two load equalizers that came wit their kits. I am very happy with them and they look great!

Custom Dynamics LEDs in all my siggy housings as of the install I did last night. Plus a Custom Dynamics flex LED under my rear fender that is also run/break/turn. The cagers in L.A. take notice. haha.

Great customer service on install and product selection. Nice prices. Great product.

All HD turns for me and TruckLites for the head and driving lights. Even the fender tips are LED on my bike. Why would you not change them?

I used custom dynamic for turn signals and kuryakan for the tombstone and the Harley led passing and headlight. Love the HD lights.

I did the radiantz turn signals, custom tombstone led array, badlands rtb and CD strobe module and CD led license frame. Then I did an HID headlight. My back end visibility is impressive for a deluxe...the strobe gets allot of attention. At a minimum rtb is a must on a luxe...

Custom Dynamics here as well, converted all turns and added an LED light bar for an extra brake light. Bright as hell, and top-notch support.

I had the dealer change all the lights when I purchased my 12 Fatboy. They put the Harley headlight, tail light and front blinkers. They had to use Kuryakyn rear blinkers because of my detachable hardware for the bags (don't know why). I love all the LED's. They are brighter and should last a lot longer. I know they use a lot less power so when I leave the ignition on the battery doesn't drain as fast.
