Negative. The nightster and the iron both have the brow style headlight. The 48 is a bottom mounted headlight. The only similarity is that they are all 5 3/4.

Learn something new every day. I never looked close enough at the Forty Eight headlight to see that it was a bottom mount.

It's the same headlight used on several models I will see if I have the receipt with P/N's for the bucket and mount. I used the 48 bottom mount and bucket with the crossbones trim ring (Black) and all the guts of my stock light.
