I sold the original set on mine right away! But, I'll be changing the wheels on the wife's truck here is couple of months. I'm going to go with the '08 style again, but I'm going to have the black changed to Dark Amethyst to match. I'll keep you in mind when I change em out.

First though is lowering it. I'm going with a 3/5 drop which should bring her truck within 2" of mine.

Sorry kinda new to the hole costum scene, what exactly do those gagues monitor?

Also I just got my HD grille in for my 2007 Black FX4 Screw and after seeing those HID lights on your Harley I might considering putting those in my truck.

Do you have any pictures of your install, how hard was the install is there any tips you can think of when installing them? I saw that you bought the ballast from e-bay I'm assuming you would only need 1 ballast, the actual bulb would have to be replaced also correct? would you happen to have all the information I would need when looking for this setup on e-bay.? Website maybe..?

P.S Beautifull truck!!

Cheers,
Scott.

That's what we're all here for Scott!

The Aeroforce gauges can monitor a whole slew of data, but each gauge can DISPLAY two parameters at a time. The coolest part is you can set up an interval time and have the parameters you select rotate at that interval. They can monitor (check out their web site I listed for a complete list) estimated horsepower & miles per gallon, miles per hour, mass air flow counts, pedal position (%) O2 banks 1 & 2 (L&r) (this is not a wideband reading), missfires, fuel pressure, gas (% full)...geez there's a bunch. On top of that each gauge has two analog inputs. So, I've got the dual setup, which DISPLAYS a total of four parameters at a time, but I can change the parameter in each position with the push of a button or by turing the cyclic function on.

Scott as for HID's they are normally sold as a set - two bulbs, two ballast. I'll post up some picstures later when I get home of my install. As for the actual kit there's a certain amount of personal taste that goes into picking the right kit for you. Keep in mind that as you go up in the color rating (Kelin value) the less visible light there is, but more blue. I've got 10000 K in both my headlights and fogs, but they are 50W to make up for the difference in the light output. I personally like the color and the output. There's a lot of people here that would tell you not to get them.

I came close to purchasing a Buell a few years ago. But we were still living in NH at the time and I had no place store it since we were renting. Maybe this year though!

We traded in my '02 Harley Davison F-150 for my black '07. I have to say compared stock to stock the '02 was a better choice. The supercharger sound & the power were amazing, never mind being able to actually see it when opening the hood.

The Saleen option is a nice power addition but as far as sound and looks - which you can't really see with their inverted design, I was a little disappointed!

The '07 really stepped up the notch on creature comfort items though and the big thing for us was the bench seat in the back vs the two captians chairs in the back fo the '02
