Default HD DAY MAKER LED HEAD LIGHT question

Any body running the HD led day maker head light. that has a deluxe with a nacelle on it. A while back I bought a seven inch head light that had led around the out side of it the head light was made with them in it it would not fit in the inner bonnet with out having to hack it up so it's sitting in my garbage taking up space $80.00 out the window. I do not want to get involved in the HD led if it's going to be trouble also are they worth the money.

I know mine is a 5" but was no bigger than the stock headlight. If it didn't fit they would say in the text.

I don't have information on that but I have a HUGE interest in getting some more light out in front of me. After hitting that dear the end od this riding season has me set on a goal of doing something. It happened so fast I don't know if it will help or not but had I had some light out there I MIGHT have seen him sooner and better able to react. I don't wish hitting a large game animal to ANYONE here. I got pretty god darn lucky. it could have turned out so much more ugly than it did. I will be following this thread closely.

nikon, have you seen the new LED Harley is selling? Looks like a Truck Lite. Might fit your bike better than the new "teddy bear" daymaker.
