Passing lamps Question 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
Ok I give up. I've been looking at every where for some Halogen drive lights for my RS. I purchased the STAR light bar mount and now need to purchase the lights. But having a hard time justifying buying the STAR lights at that cost when I can purchase SEAL BEAM'S housings from JC Whitney for $50.00 or cobra housings from Cruiser Customizing for a little less. My question is will one of these alternatives work on the RS light bar set up. O ya I also have a Bat Wing faring so I need to take that into account on Depth of the lights.

Thanks for any info. And Help.

They will fit, with a few changes if you're stacking them with the turn signal. recently purchased spot lamps from JC Whitney had remove the screw so i could keep my current set up.

So what your saying is I can buy the JC Whitney ones remove that threaded post to make it work. Do you need to buy metric posts to screw it into STAR light bar fitting to place the the turn singles on the bottom of the passing lamps.
