LED headlights. Harley's latest trick to get more of your money. I have stock halogen headlight and spots and am visible in day and can see at night.

 

Well crap, I guess I wasted my money then...

 

You will need the pigtail adapter if going from halogen to LEDs on a '14. Spend the extra $20 and get it, it's worth not having to hack into your wiring.

I have the HD Daymaker Reflector and couldn't be more pleased--it seems to be visible from angles, I run the high beam pretty much all the time. Plus the CD Dynamic Ringz greatly increase visibility, as has been mentioned here-totally worth the cost of admission! The side view, ditch lighting could be better at night, but its not terrible. Just don't blast around curves at night doing 70 and you're fine...

 

Great informative post, thanks for taking the time to make it.

 

Yes these lights are plug and play then smile cause you didn't spend alot of money. One thing I did find is you have to use the factory o ring and the one supplied or double rubber it so it doesn't turn in the socket. there's a complete thread in the rushmore area.

Awesome thanks

 

Here is the requested info on the 8700 Evo 2. This looks like a real nice option with the built in Daylight Running light and there is additional LED's to provide a wider beam. I am assuming the color temperature is the same as the standard 8700 but could not verify it anywhere.
