My BIL is using them, he's too cheap for LED. They work fine.

I used one for about one year before switching to the brighter LED. It worked fine

What LED are you using that's brighter? I have had absolutely terrible luck with LED's. I haven't found one brighter than a good incandescent yet? It isn't a matter of being too cheap here, as I've spent good coin on the damn LED's to no avail.

It's the HD plug & go LED brake/tail light. Seems much brighter, even in the daylight.

Thanks guys, I'll look into the Harely and Kury stuff. I didn't think Harley had them for the 2010 Street glides with bullet only rear lights? My Dealer has a few Beauties there that do not have a clue!
