I've been wanting to try these for a while. I finally sourced a good price for them and they just came in. I like the looks of them so far. We'll find out more later this evening.

Super easy install. Plug and play.

I did that add on about two years ago, posted it up on here. You should like them, much nicer white light giving good coverage. Oddly this headlight was the only thing that survived my low side, the gauge cluster and frame that holds everything else is gone.

Well... you were absolutely correct! WOW! What a difference! The bright on this set is a spotlight. That's very interesting. Coverage is very good. It makes the bike look much newer also, versus the incandescent yellowish bulbs. Luv the look. I'm really impressed with the build quality also. I hope the LED's hold up over time. We'll see, because this upgrade will be on here for a long time. I'm trying to figure out aim height. I'm close... but I may be a tad high.

Seriously, it's my biggest pet peeve with cars these days. Stop BLINDING me with those LED headlights! Even in the day time!

Oh yeah... I totally get it. That's why I have to get these aimed correctly.
 
I saw those but was too afraid of scammy scam scams. It worked out ok off of Wish.com? Is there purchase protection? I've never ordered from them.

Yeah... I get it. I wasn't sure about Wish either. The seller has a good rating, but not many transactions. I ordered on July 18th. Arrived Aug 1st. Great tracking the entire time. Shipping was $2.99 I had a $5 coupon so got these for $87. Transaction and comms were smooth. YMMV

Very happy with them. Very bright lights.

I'll leave you with shots of my backside.... I took off the stock lights and put on "Eagle Eye" LEDs. MUCH brighter!

My WISH.com ordered lights arrived in the mail a day or two ago. I haven't installed them but initial impression is they look good! I got an email to use code "SIMPLYCODES10" for an additional 10% off, in case anyone wants to try that.

ETA: Looks like "FIRST15" is an additional code. Both codes max at $5 off. FYI

I installed my wish.com lights on my Uly a few days ago. I haven't taken it for a night ride yet, but holy HELL is there a difference in the garage!

FWIW, they're also available on AliExpress for about the same $90.

Added bonus: The mesh headlight protector will still fit on them!
