Daymaker option you say? you can't tell the difference from HD daymaker other than the HD badge. They're for 7" headlight buckets.

Yes it is. Our adapters are H4 (Hi/Lo) and it comes with another connector H4 to H13 that you don't need. Just plug and play, no sweat mod. Im just a poor peasant so... gotta be smart.
I don't currently have a picture of the light output but I would recommended this LED headlight to anyone.

Im not so sure if you're still referring to my bike but for the directional in your slim I would suggest to invest in custom dynamics leds. The front are 1157 and 1156 ON MY BIKE. If your slim's rear turn signals light up as running/brake and turns then they're 1157 too.
If you just replace the bulbs with led equivalents, you may not be too pleased about it as incandescent bulbs are brighter than some other leds.

Im guessing something like this wouldnt fit? Amazon.com: OPT7 LED Headlight Bulbs w/ Clear Arc-Beam Kit - H4 (9003) - 80w 7,000Lm 6K Cool White CREE - 2 Yr Warranty: Automotive
Some of them will fit, some won't since the fan at the rear end might obstruct proper fitment. I don't have it so im not sure which ones will fit. And by the way, it may cause too much glare to oncoming traffic because of the HD reflectors. In today's cars, most have projectors which are more efficient.
But like I said on the ebay link that I posted, I would recommend it.

I hope it's ok putting up a link to a JEEP forum. This should take you to a pretty in depth look at headlights. Why JEEP? Cause as far as I can tell they use the exact same lights, we just use one at a time (for the 7" anyway).

Oh. This write up is upwards of 4 years old but the basic info is relevant, even if some of the lights have changed. Just a bit of knowledge.

Maybe not. All that wiring will probably not fit our bikes
