I made it through the antennae debate and now I am onto the lights.
I would like to add two additional lights to the existing center light similar to the Road King. I just do not get enough light during midnight driving. Anyone have any good suggestions for aftermarket lights for the street glide.
HD makes a fog lamp kit that mounts on the engine guard--two 55-watt halogen bulbs--highly recommend the kit to you. They work great at night, but I leave them on during daylight to be seen better by cagers. You can run the wires inside the engine guard and use the aux. switch on the fairing cap as an "on/off" switch.

You can use your current turn sigs with them. Check out Zanottis before you buy from your local dealer. They typically have a lower price.

Exactly what I did and I use them the same way. Keeps the clean single headlight look that sets our X's apart from the rest of the family.
Look closely at my sig pic below and you can see the fog lamp mounted onthe engine guard.

Before investing $$ into extra lights, try replacing your headlight bulb from the stock 55/60w to 85/100w. Kuryakyn and others sell these for $9-10 and they're worth every penny of it. I ran these on my old RK for nine years and now have one on my new SG. There have been no problems with the higher output.
i did the fog lights too. pain in the rear if you dont make the holes big enough. but i love the end result.
i also switched out the head light with a silverstar. it puts out a whiter light while the fog lights do a more regular light. i use mine when the sun starts to go down, till it is up.
the only bad thing is that alot of light hits my forks and lights up the bottom of the fairing. but still it is how i wanted the lights to work and look.

Can you just hook up the lightsthrough theAUX switch, or do you need a relay in the circuit?
I'm looking to do this mod soon.
