I love mine on my 06 Standard...If you want some picks let me know & I will post them. It says in the parts book they wont work on the EFI, but they work fine. The LEDs are a bit bright but I dont even notice anymore. (get alot of compliments too)

I just installed mine a couple of weeks ago. They look freakin awesome. The chrome rings fit the contour of the tank perfectly and the quality is second to none. The blue LEDs are bright during the day but will gradually dim automatically as it gets darker, and when you turn off the key, they disappear completely. I installed the set in about an hour and a half, but since I have an ’05 carbureted FB, the connection was only the four wires just like the stock gauge. The EFI models require that you run an additional wire under the dashboard and terminate it there.

I will try and get some pics up this weekend for you.

They do look good on there.....Do you just push down on the gas cap and it pops up to get it out or does it twist??? Thanks

I just installed the Kuryakyn caps last week (no pictures yet) and they are awesome.
The fuel level leds are bright and also auto dim at dusk. It also has battery v level- charging level leds.

I can't even begin to state how jealous I am! THEY DON'T FIT THE DEUCE! Un-frigging believable.

Like so much other Softail stuff that catches my eye, at the bottom of the page..."(Not for FXSTD)"[:@]
