I doubt it, even if there was, you probably couldn't beat the price on ebay. Price and postage on ebay seems pretty reasonable to me.

Your local Harley Shop should have them on the shelf mate, they are an authorised dealer for them.

Heads up Easy R will have them very soon at a third of the price

As mentioned above ... KPR Industries out of Brisbane ... They do the rears as well , bolts straight onto the Fender Struts , really gives the bike a clean look ... Both front and rears are smaller in reality compared to pictures , but look fantastic .
Can't testify to the legal side of things but was pulled over twice for the obligatory speeding ticket and didn't get pinged either time ... Maybe I got lucky ... Wish I could say the same about the Speeding tickets .
With a bit of luck if Walka is right and the quality is as good then the ones from EasyR at a third of the price might be the way to go as the KPR units are not the cheapest things around .

Installation question:-
Parts have arrived. Looks like I'll have to disassemble bar mounted units to connect wires. Is there going to be some trick to this in terms of removing the whole thing that I don't need to do? Will the wiring inside be a solder job of simple nuts?

Cut your old ones off near the cowl, get under the tank and find the indicator wires, piss off the cable restraints and pull out as much as possible. Solder the new ones together, watch out as the new wires are thinner, use heat shrink and keep it neat, once together, you can push as much wire back into the bars as possible. Get back under the tank and try to nip them up if possible.
Make sure nothing snags, just get stuck into it, you will be right. The lights on the dash will blink faster but the actual front and rear blinker will flash at the correct rate. make sure you grab onto the mirror when you tighten them up otherwise the fucken thing moves all over the place. I fiitted mine to my Breakout with no dramas at all. Have fun

wow you might have just saved me a 100 bucks.
one thing.. I called up the guy (nice guy), and he hasn't sold one for 2018 softail street bob medel yet and wasn't 100% sure if the one designed for old street bob will fit on 18 models.
Does anyone by any chance have two models next to each other?? I know it's a long shot..
Thanks guys.!

Based on my convo with Easy R, they will get them in stock soon and will be sold for around $300. For this price I'd recommend Heinz motorcycle from Germany, these guys make their own lights with amazing fit and finish.
Brown Industries (Aussie based) sell a set as well for 200 bucks, Chinese made with thinnest electric wire you will see in your life.
Not the best fit but it works on my 2018 street bob.
I wasn't super duper thrilled about the fitment as I was expecting it to fit like a glove, especially this lights being $100 bucks a pop.
ended up using the washer but made it work in the end. Also the right side has this stupid offset. (see photo)
Based on my research, ALL of these lights (regardless of brand) will have normal rate of blink on the led lights itself but the dash light will blink at faster rate, FYI.
Just thought I'd share my experience here so you dont get caught out if you are pedantic like myself. Otherwise happy with how it turned out.

Dunno what that link is, probably one of those pop up ads, your local Indy should have one of those equilizers to suit your model, if you need one.

My understanding is that you have to use Load Equilizer with these Led Indicators so it dosent interfear with ECM singles and also Flashes normally ... You don`t want to give Officer Plod any excuse to pull you over and ask why are your blinkers Flashing either to slow or to fast .

Yeah true, my LED lights (shown in photos above) blinks at the normal factory rate and happy to report no alarm lights either.

Mine was the same, blinkers flashed at normal rate, but the dash indicators were not constant, if it wasn't for the alarm coming on I would have put up with the dash lights.
I just didn't want to not know if the alarm was because of the indicators or some other issue, I guess different models/years will vary whether you need the load equalizer or not.

Just wondering, when fitting these how do you do the wiring on the bars? Do you cut and solder or run new wire through the bars.
