I don't have one, but do you have a part #? Have you tried price checking at Zanottis in PA? Or ChicagoHD?

Zanottis has an inventory page where you can look up a part# to see if they have it in stock too. I just can't vouch for the lists up to date status.

I bought one from custom chrome. There were 3 different versions. Very bright. Only $65. Mine has black housing with clear lense.

Here's is my take: Mine cost $105.00 on my previous ride, and was a card that plugged into the bulb. IMO it was excellent at night, brighter, but not in the daylight. They may have improved by now....

Later

I was checking that one out at the dealer, it's really bright, even moreso than the stocker but the price made me change my mind.

I can't see that kind of money for led tail light, the led's are cheap!

I have the new HD LED for 08, part #68087-08 (Smoked Lens w/ Black Housing) and it looks awesome on my Black SG. The smoke turn lenses completes the setup. Only the inner housing is black, the mounting bezel is crome. Pg 508

I should have mentioned that the lens has built in white license plateLED's that light up the top of the fender and especially if you have a backrest installed. This is only an issue with the Street Glide. I'm going to try to find a work-around to either disable or black them out. Otherwise I will have to return it as it's really quite bright and I'm sure I'll get a ticket for improper lighting.

I bought one for my 07 roadglide. It has the clear lens and chrome mounting bezel and it's very bright. I like it. Two mounting screws and a push in connector and it's installed. Real easy.
