    Lamonster Garage has my vote. May not be the cheapest but you can rest assured the product is quality and the customer service is excellent. Support site sponsors!

    Have you considered searching this forum before asking a question that's been answered ad nauseum, even recently?

    TricLED has my business.

    Their LED lights do not require any modification to the Byke parts, no cutting or otherwise, they just plain fit.

    Joel, I think most of us bought our LED's long before YITA had the 4 sided LED's available. I know I was all over Amazon, EBAY, and other motorcycle forums and AT THAT TIME couldn't find ANY plug and play LED bulbs that didn't require cutting and modifying the RT's stock headlight assemblies.
    If I wanted to cut up those back covers I could find many less expensive LED bulbs, but wanted to avoid that.
    Just curious, did you have to modify your headlight assembly or covers to fit those 4 sided YITA bulbs?

    They do make a substantial difference, Do you have the exact model/SKU number of the ones you bought. I've got a local Spyder buddy considering.

    Having installed both the TricLED and Lamonster garage LED headlamps, I can tell you there is considerable difference in quality and longevity. Have never had to replace a single Lamonster garage headlamp bulb. They fit without modification and WORK.

    Two brands have been mentioned here. I posted about the bulbs when I had them installed. A year later--the bulbs are working good.

    I had two burn outs on my 2014 before switching to LED's.

    It does seem like the technology of LED headlight bulbs is continually evolving and competition is driving the price ever lower. https://www.amazon.com/Headlight-Con...SZVWHY2W7&th=1
