I was surprised too--prior to making up that list I had never tried to get all the mods on paper but when I did, I suppose 7 nearly-continuous years of wrenching did add up.

What color is your '99? If it's a darker color (red, gray, black, etc...) then I'd go with the Harley lights but if it's lighter (tan, white, silver, etc...) then I'd go with the regular clear '05 lights. At night the beam is a lot smoother but not a whole lot brighter/wider/farther-reaching. The OE lights weren't bad but there were definite light/dark spots at the edges of the pattern whereas the Harley knockoffs are a lot more even. With the relay'ed 9007-to-9008 conversion harness from GOS, I don't really need Silverstar bulbs but those will probably go in when the stockers burn out (or when I get bored and have $50 burning a hole in my pocket...).
