Let me clarify. I am talking about the chrome Headlight housing, not the LED trim he got from Kuryakyn.

That is the Kuryakyn LED trim ring. The whole chrome housing is part of it. The LED ring installes into the front of the chrome trim ring.

Very nice touch. If it performs as well as you indicate, I see a lot of folks moving in that direction. Well done.

Installed my headlamp last Friday night. I'm very impressed by the cast housing vs the stock H-D's housing which is made of plastic.

Really puts out a nice swath of white light.

So far, so great!

Don't even have to mess with the adjusters. Took it for a real quick ride down the road and the difference is incredible over stock. Actually with the passing lamps and low beam I can't see a need for high beam. Truth be told the high beam doesn't really add alot to the equation. But I will reserve full judgment on that after some good ride time. Can't wait until I get a chance to get some real ride time with these torches.

As of now the only remaining incandescent lights I have are the rear tour pak signals. But that will be changing soon.

Here are a few pics. I also picked up the Kury LED trim ring but left the LED ring out for now as it calls for installation over 50° due to the adhesive. Nowhere near that today. It actually looks fine w/o the LED ring but I will go back and add it when it warms up.

Do you reuse the stock passing lamp housing and cables or do you replace it all?
With the passing lamps, did you reinstall the inner trim ring? I am having trouble with fitment. too thick with it, too thin without it.
