anyone using the CLEARWATER DARLA LED lights as ditch lights?

http://clearwaterlights.com/infopg_darla.html

i going to replace my currant ditch lights (kuryakyn 1 5/8" bullet) with these & i know these are going to be REALLY tight to get them tucked up where my lights are now. just wondering if anyone else is using them?

thanks Dave

nope. i have scraped my floor boards a little bit & have not knocked them off.
a buddy has them in the same place & scrapes his boards so much that the mounts for them are just about half gone & his lights are still fine under there.
BUT the lights that we have now are 1 5/8" the DARLAs are 2" so it should be interesting what its going to take to get them mounted up in there.
