The LED HL will plug right into the stock connector.

Let us know what you think once you get it installed.
thanks, will do. won't be for a few weeks though, light is on BO till mid March

best way to locate a distributer near you is to use the Contact US on JW's Website. They will get you in touch with a distributer in your area.
Thank you!

Thanks for the review. Had the HD HID light and was never satisfied with it. This looks like it will do the job.

Light and passing lights ordered.

Looking forward to that Bogie. Kind of glad I haven't had a chance to upgrade yet!

Daniel, speaking for myself, if I had just upgraded my stock lighting to the Phase 6, I wouldn't be worried about changing it right now just because they came out with another version. To me it would be like "having" to upgrade my computer every time they came out with a "better" version. I'd be upgrading every six hours! Besides, while the Phase 7 should be better than the Phase 6 (which is an assumption for the time being), I can't imagine it being as much better than Phase 6 as Phase 6 is better than stock so the "bang for the buck" improvement (I'm assuming now! ) probably isn't nearly as much. We'll see.

Of course, to each their own!

Ride Safe,
Steve R.

If anyone's concerned about whether the HD led headlight is noticeable in daylight, I had a chance to see mine when I swapped bikes with a buddy and the HD led headlight and auxiliary lamps were extremely white and bright in my mirrors.
