Really nice mod! Does much for the overall look of the bike. Get your hans on a decent camera and post some night shots

Thanks... I'll try to get some night shots that are decent.

I would like to add one important note. I had to build little aluminum reflectors to block the headlights from shining DIRECTLY onto the plastic lens... I noticed a slight dimple in the lens when I hadn't had them on all that long, and they would have melted the plastic or severely warped it.

If you look at any car with clear lenses you will see what type of relector I'm talking about... I just cut two quick ones that I can actually install right on the headlight and re-insert it so I didn't have to take the assembly back apart.

If anyone does this type of mod instead of HIDs... PLEASE remember to do this, or you may get PISSED!

It was from here:

Some pics of my latest project (gauges)

It was a gauges mod thread that the headlight took over.

There are better "how to" threads from members CWbethel and Alex4danaTLS if you are hunting...

Thanks... and good luck!

Not yet... I just did this. It's super easy, super effective, and doesn't change the look of the mod at all. At most angles, you would never notice unless I explained what they were.

I will get some pics when I get it back out to install my FP Levers that should be here any day...
