Default LED light help please

I have a 2011 ultra limited. I purchased a daymaker light from eagle lighting. The light will work but I can not get it to fit in the fairing. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get it to fit. Called the light people and they said trim it, but this is not helping. What do I need?

If your light bucket looks like soup bowl see below you need to order 68124-04B which is a opened up mount bucket.

The LED I'm looking at requires no mod to bucket, just plug and play for H4 lamp using 1 of 3 adapters
