Default Two Bulb Headlight

I have an '01 FLHTCUI and I want more light on the road. Has anyone used the two bulb replacement headlight from H-D? Is it an improvement? Is it plug and play?

What's involved in installing it? Is it just replacing the headlight ring assembly and headlight?

Essentially, yes - that and plugging things in.&nbsp\\; Really a simple job.

Yes, it's very straight forward.
Put's out almost as much as the HID, per HD specs.
You can also switch out bulbs.

I replaced the two bulbs in mine with a pair of 65 watt H9's. I do a lot of night riding in deer country and am completely satisfied. Daniel Stern lighting put me on the H9's.

I bought the 2 bulb light. E-Z install, PNP. Have not rode at night, but looks ok. Throws nice pattern on the wall.
