If they see me they have less of a chance of killing me. I also used the Hikari bulbs for the passing lights. So very bright. I would never consider getting a lamp when the bulb is so excellent.
I totally understand your opinion, But if you have ever been blinded by another vehicles lights then you must understand how they feel when you drive by. this is why I am looking for a better solution. The bulbs do not always reflect correctly for the base they sit in. My particular Led bulb will not let me see very far on low beam , yet it is bright as hell and High is to high to be useful. So neither position gives me a clear line of sight regardless of my adjustments. Useless to my safety.

Does anyone know if the headlight adapters will work with the earlier model nomads? I have a 2003 1500 and if there is a bolt on adapter then I would prefer that over modifying to make a light work.

The Voyager / Vaquero light mount to the Fairing is totally different than on earlier non-fairing Vulcans.
