Eagle Lights Daymaker Gen II anyone?

I'm thinking of replacing the stock headlight and passing lamps of my Tri-Glide with LEDs. Came across Eagle Lights Daymaker on Amazon.com and before I pull the trigger, I would like to know if anyone has them, specifically the Gen II headlight and passing lamps.
The look of the Gen II passing lamps is intriguing and I wonder what they actually look like in person and if they are better than the previous model. If someone has them and can post a picture on the bike, that would be great.

Here is the link to the Gen II headlight with Gen I passing lamps kit

I have the Gen III headlight (5 3/4") on my sportster and it looks great and works perfectly.

I purchased the Paradise Lights

Amazon

headlamp and passing light bulbs for my '09 Ultra and they work great as well.

I have the Gen II headlamp and Gen I passing on my FLD, they are BRIGHT.
No problems at all.

Now that's out of the way...

Correct. They are as bright as the gen III Eagle Light. I replaced the bulbs on the Ultra because changing the complete headlamp assembly would have required modification to the housing or additional purchase of an adapter ring. The bulbs were plug and play and took about 15 minutes to change out all three, and was slightly cheaper too.
