Dot Appoved Chrome 7inch LED Headlight with 4.5inch LED Passing Lamps

These lights work great for less money than others

Received kit today. I did have to use the adapter ring that was included. I ride a 2007 HD Electra Glide Classic.I was disappointed instructions were not included. I'm not the most mechanical guy, but I have learned to go slow and take pictures if something look confusing, before taking it apart.Drive lights: I was able to use them as they came. I didn't have to cut and wire directly. I was prepared to do it, but got lucky. I will say HD doesn't make it easy to hold the ring around the light in place and thread the screw into the tiny nut. Also, learn from my experience, be sure when plugging in the light to ensure red wire lead connects to positive side on bike socket. On my bike it was gray. It had to install right light twice to get it right.Headlight: Again pretty straight forward. Did a test fit with headlight and determined I needed to use the adapter ring. Be advised, to remove the HD headlight ring you have to use a star bit. Luck again hit and I was able to use an allen wrentch. Went together pretty easy. I may have to adjust the aim, but don't have a wall close by and it's still sunny at this time.Total time was one hour and five minutes and that included a couple trips to dig out my allen wrentchs. Four stars because instructions were not included.Will add to review after getting some ride time in with them and may change ratings if needed.Update rating to 5 stars after my first night ride with new lights installed.LOVE THEM!!! I live in Nashville and chose to ride Briley Parkway. Ride out to Briley is city streets, didn't get anyone flashing their high beams at me and when stopped behind cars at red lights my headlight was in their mirrors, so no need to adjust. All this was confirmed on my ride east. I love how wide the light is from the driving lights. No negative reaction from any drivers. Turned around and rode west to an area that doesn't have lights along the highway. The term "Daymaker" is very appropriate. With driving lights the shoulder of the road was in light. In my mind this will give me a better chance of seeing critters and other potential hazards that may get blown into my lane. I did try the headlight on its own and was impressed. I could see farther than with OEM. Honestly, I was always a little tense riding at night with OEM lights. As stated in another review, seemed I was out running the light. Light was reflected off signs and the road reflectors at distances I couldn't believe, you always know where the road is.I highly recommend these lights. As a side note, I thought these would help me be more visable during the day also, and I am sure they do, but there isn't a bright enough light if people just don't look. Was damn near run off the road on my way home from work by a woman who just decided she had to be in my lane. Keep you head on a swivel and enjoy these incredibly bright lights.

I love to do side by side reviews. Doing some work on the bike, so figured it was a good time to upgrade to LED. In my pictures, this light (purchased from Amazon) is on the left of the power supply, and the beam pattern is on the top (and upside down). The other light is a competitor from a motorcycle supply house.I'm usually skeptical about numbers and measurements, because all too often on Amazon they're grossly inflated. Packing 2400 lumens into the low beam seemed like one of those times, and indeed, it may be so. However, you can clearly see from the pictures that this headlight is much brighter, and it draws more power. The competitor headlight only claims 1600 lumens. It's in the realm of believability, as far as I'm concerned. High beam is much more competitive between the two lights (3600 lm combined for this one vs 3200 lm combined), and I actually prefer the competitor because it is aimed at a slightly higher angle to shine down the road better. This light just seems to throw more light at the same spot. However, since I'm using low beams most of the time, this light is the winner. The smaller difference in the high beams is also empirically validated by how badly it flogs my power supply, dragging it down to 9.7v vs 9.9v.The included bracket seems much nicer than the HD stock. The steel is thick, chrome plating seems thin but it'll be hidden the whole time. The bracket uses three coil springs in compression, one around each adjustment screw, versus HD's single spring in tension. Though two electrical harness adapters were included, I didn't need either. Haven't messed with the passing lamps yet, but they seem solid. Competitor light, while still being significantly more expensive, did not include passing lamps. The light itself has a molded plug, where the competitor has ordinary pinned connectors. This seems much more durable and less prone to corrosion for the long haul. About the only thing I like better about the other is it has a nicer heatsink pattern and is a few ounces lighter.I didn't particularly like the style of this lamp (not to mention that most other riders use this one), but form follows function. I prefer this beam pattern much better, throwing the majority of the light in a tight group and providing a lot of wide illumination down and to the sides. I also like the sharp vertical cutoff of both lights. The little bit of light leakage between the two is mostly (at least 75%) from the competitor light. Couldn't see paying extra for a decorative halo when the low beam runs all the time.My power supply has 2 independent outputs, bot set to 12VDC (within 0.1v of each other), each providing up to 1A. In the pictures, I set this light upside down, so both of the vertical cutoffs were together. Beam patterns are super important to me, and I hate that manufacturers don't really show them. Perhaps this explains why this is such a popular style of light. Time will tell if it lasts, and if it doesn't, I'll be back on here complaining. Hope you've gotten something out of this.
