I am going to try to aim these tonight when it’s dark out. I think right now I’ll be blinding everyone coming at me !!
These seem to lack a means of downward adjustment and hope I don’t have to get into shimming behind the basket to create more of a downward beam !

What adapter rings did you get? The SUP-lite adapters (on amazon) have a vertical and 2 side adjusters.

I have whatever came with them, and yes there are 2 horizontal adjusters and one vert. which is on top, so I can aim them higher. There is no adjustment to lower the beam and with the vertical screw all the way loose ii might still be too high.
It all worked out since I got them adjusted pretty well. Not bad lights, but the brights are pretty
useless.

You might have to loosen the vert screw all the way and adjust the ones on the side (if they are below the center line) down to get that downward angle. That's the way mine are oriented.

Thanks for the confirmation, that's exactly what I did !!
It was enough that I don't blind the rest of the world. If they would have been 2 high, a few washers behind the top of the adapter mounts would have forced a bit of a downward angle.

now I just have to pull off the front fender liners and get at the wiring. A project for better , warmer weather

Got the Oracle Fender LEDs installed and YIPPEE, NO Hyperflashing :)
Nice and bright w/ good switchback performance, got them from Vivid Racing (also Horsepowerfreaks.com) for about $34 shipped.

I will be wiring the DRLs to my halo DRL wire and splice the turn signal wire into my amber halo wire on my headlights to have those features active (and able to use my autolights function rather than having to use my parking light on my headlight dial to run DRLs only).

Hopefully get this done in a couple days.

Quick video clip here, a little blinding but you get the idea :)

All wired and done !
They actually came out pretty nice. I was a bit surprised that there were 3 wires off the
drl socket, I guess you could wire these from either the drl’s or running lights.
I put them with the running lights so they only come on when I turn the switch on and
not every time I drive. The leds May last longer that way.

Now if only my bull bar with the leds would arrive I could look like a Christmas
tree on wheels!
