Love them! I was having issues with a couple of bulbs not being able to handle the vibrations. A friend suggested the PIAA's and I've never had an issue with them. 08 FLHTCU

I bought a pair when I had a Sportster,used one on it, much better than stock. The other will go in the SG when the original gives up. They have a blue tint

Not trying to highjack the thread, or change the subject. Just giving you my experience. I have probably spent $200 plus on every kind of standard bulb out there. They simply do not perform like an HID.

Just go to HID. Don't listen to everyone about the "cheaper' kits. They all work fine. Go in with someone and buy an H4 kit for a car (you get two of everything). You will end up paying about 30% less.
My headlight is so bright that I light up street signs in the middle of the day. And no I have not had any complaints from cagers.

HID makes you much more visible during the day, and gives you a tremendous amount of light at night.

If you go HID buy the Single bulb Hi-Lo kit. They work very well.
