Yes he can ship to Canada or anywhere No problem. He just asked when it?s time to contact him personally thru email to arrange shipping details to Up North.

Also he let me know that the Modern HID set will be $300 but due to cost the classic will be $325, i let him know most of us want the Modern anyways.

I will take pictures of the install for sure whenever i receive the kit.

HIDs are one of the best upgrades that you can do for your H2. I've had mine for 5 years.

On the fence a little. Great price, would love to hear about the install though. If it's not too much trouble a small write up with pics when you get yours would be sweet. The halo ring looks like the perfect add on.

Hey Guys just some info i wanted to relay that i just found out, The Modern Headlights are not DOT approved but the Classic Headlights are Sae/Dot approved. So if anyone is worried about legality issues, the classic is prob the way to go. Also if these end up not fitting or don?t work for whatever reason, has anyone had experience with the Truck-Lite LED Headlights???

I dont think they are a bad option for improvement over stock headlights plus they are DOT/SAE legal. Plus the guys at Predator Motorsports raved about them when i called them. They said with the failure rates of HID and having ballast etc, these plug right into stock harness and no ballast. Ive read mixed reviews but not a bad alternative i think.

Hi thats why i didn't buy his modern lights because they are not DOT i bought starr hid lights and i was thinking about the classic lights for my Harleys. The led could be great, but I deal with led lights on transit buses everyday some are good and some are crap. Plus if the LED burns out on the road your screwed their is no bulb to replace and if one burns out you may only be able to buy them in pairs. LED lights do draw way less amps but some are made cheap and don't last like they should i don't know about the ones your talking about. I have Starr HID headlights in my truck and i keep a spare ballast and bulb with me in the truck so no problems on the road with my HID lights. Starr uses phillps ballast and bulbs that are the best HID products out at this time but i keep spare stuff just in case. I would think the phillips stuff will last from 3 to 5 years but you never know. Thanks for the update.

Screw it. I'd buy them anyway.. The modern lights are so similar to the projector ones sold that are DOT approved. So long as you aim them correctly I highly doubt that you'll get some sort of fine.

Hi the cops where i live are A$$hole. Last year they wanted to give me a ticket for dropping a cig butt off my bike. When he pulled me over the cop said i thought those harleys had an ashtray. What a total A$$hole. Where i live he is not the only A$$hole cop. Some cops are fine but not where i live.

Dropping cig butts is an arsehole thing to do. I like to crowd people that I see do that.

Hi i guess next time i should eat the cig butt at 40 mph going down the road just for you. I can tell you don't smoke and dislike guys that do and you don't ride. TO EACH THEIR OWN. Also next time you see a guy on a harley dropping a cig butt off his bike at 40 mph you should crowd him.

Hey guys I put my order in for the Classic headlights. They will ship DEC 15th. The only difference between the modern headlight and the classic headlight is the classic headlight has a daytime running lamp. Ben said he does not know why that is such a big issue anf the classic are dot and the modern are not. He said they're working on dot aproval for the modern. It is virtually the same as classic except the drl. Adjustablity, size, lens size, how far it protrudes is exactly the same. I am playing it safe and ordering the classics, but i do know the moderns are in stock.

I will update once I get them in. I told him if they suck or any issues with install, we will cancel group buy!

Dude, no offense but that is the lamest excuse I have ever heard. Why not stop at Mcdonalds and after you get done eating that burger just drop the bag and the wrapper on the road because you do not have a trash bag on the Harley. Do you really believe that because you are on a bike that that means littering and potentially starting a brush fire is OK???? :lame: :lame: :lame:

Hi the cig is butted on my boot before its dropped. Also i don't plan on getting into a pissing match on group buy HID light thread. So back to the thread.
