Trucklte was in my price range and it's a nice light. It boils down to your taste and how much money you are willing to spend. Do some research I've been told watch out for the China knock offs.

I have only used 1 and it has left me completely satisfied. Trucklite. I think it lights up the road better than the Stock HD LEDs on my dads 2015 when we ride in the dark. I have the main headlight and spots. Been 3 years now or more on them.

I stay away from foreign copies of AMERICAN top shelf products.

Default Daymaker Reflector Headlight.

I have a 15 Streetglide and wanted to know if I need anything other than the adaptor plug to install? Not sure if I need the adaptor ring or not.

There are SOOOO many threads on this. Do a search for "LED headight" and see what you can find.

Or, check these out, and when you're done reading, look at the bottom of each for "similar threads":

I use the Cyron LED bulb in my stock headlight housing. It was around $60 bucks. Works great.

JW Speaker EVO 2 8700 here in my 2015 street glide. JW Speaker makes the daymaker for Harley, however, it is an older design. the EVO 2 is about half the price, too, since you aren't paying for the harley name. you won't need anything else besides the adapter in a 15 SG.
