My old honda and a few other bikes had more than headlight guts in the headlight bucket. Do harleys only have whats needed in there or is it a mess of wires? Not sure if I'll ever try swapping it out for something else but I was just wondering.

 

Just the lamp, socket and headlamp wires in mine.

 

The connectors that wire the switches and indicators on your bars are tucked into the top of your headlight. It's not a mess, just 3 deutsch connectors and your headlight stuff.

 

I changed mine to a chrome headlight.It was easy,not much to it at all
