Default Swaping out a Blackline front Headlight?

Hey all,

One of the first things that I wanted to change on my Blackline is that small front headlight that looks lost in between the forks (LOL)

So I just got my new 5-3/4" Billet Headlight and was wondering if I could swap out the internals and use the HD headlight in the Casing?

Reason being I really don't want to be slicing up wires to install the Headlight as a first choice. If I can't then I have no choice but to Snip Snip, so has anyone swapped a Harley casing?

I have attached a picture of my new Headlight

Well I tried to swap out the casing but it was a no go, so I spliced the new headlight in

Picture attached, this was one of the first things that had to go on the Blackline for me ..
