A friend just bought a headlight & the two spots on Amazon for a total of $100.
The headlight ended up being a Jeep headlight, but it fit with a minor adjustment & works fine.
Probably just me, but the aftermarket LEDs seem brighter during the day than the Harley ones. At least when I'm looking behind me through the mirrors. Maybe just the way they're aimed?

Moons MC makes a couple different 7" LED headlights that look like the Daymaker. I had one in my night train and now my street glide. Cant beat the quality for 190$

I'm pretty sure you're referring to the Sunpie which they also make specifically for HD. I have the headlight and passing lights and love them. Get the ring too.

I have the Hogworkz Halomaker headlight and passing lamps on my TriGlide and they're awesome. Not everyone likes the halo but I do. They also carry a model without halo, which is cheaper.

Here's the link to mine.
