Best Lighting Upgrades for Your Harley-Davidson Road Glide
If you ride a Road Glide, you already know the stock headlight leaves a lot to be desired. Whether you're putting in miles on dark highways or just want your bike to stand out, upgrading your lighting is one of the best investments you can make — both for safety and style.
At G Arthur Designs, lighting upgrades are our bread and butter. We're not just an online store — we're G Arthur Performance Cycles, a full-service Harley-Davidson performance shop located in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. We install everything we sell, so if you're local to the Inland Empire, you're in good hands.
Here's a breakdown of the best lighting options for your Road Glide.
Why Upgrade Your Road Glide Lighting?
Stock Harley headlights are functional, but they're not built for serious riders. Modern LED auxiliary lights give you:
- Dramatically more visibility on dark roads and highways
- Longer bulb life — LEDs last far longer than halogen
- A cleaner, more aggressive look that sets your bike apart
- Better safety — you see more, and other drivers see you sooner
The Best Lighting Upgrades for Road Glide
1. Baja Designs LP6 Pro — The Gold Standard
The Baja Designs LP6 Pro is hands down the most popular auxiliary light we sell, and for good reason. Originally designed for off-road racing, the LP6 Pro produces an incredible amount of light in a compact, durable package.
For Road Glide riders, our 2015-Current Roadglide Complete Baja Designs Kit includes everything you need for a clean bolt-on install — the LP6 Pro light, a custom headlight bracket, and a plug-and-play wiring harness. No cutting wires, no fabrication.
Best for: Riders who want maximum light output and a clean factory-style install.
2. Rigid Industries Adapt XP — Smart Lighting Technology
The Rigid Industries Adapt XP takes lighting to the next level with adaptive technology that adjusts beam pattern based on your speed and steering input. At low speeds it widens the beam, at highway speeds it focuses it further down the road.
Our 2015-Current Roadglide Complete Rigid Industries XP Adapt Kit includes the bracket and wiring harness specific to your Road Glide for a seamless install.
Best for: Tech-forward riders who want intelligent lighting that adapts to how they ride.
3. Baja Designs S1 & S2 Pods — Versatile and Affordable
If you want to add auxiliary lighting without committing to a full headlight replacement, the Baja Designs S1 and S2 light pods are a great option. Compact and powerful, these can be mounted in a variety of positions on your bike.
Pair them with our G Arthur Designs S1 Turn Signal Mounts for a clean, purpose-built mounting solution designed specifically for Harley-Davidson.
Best for: Riders who want flexible auxiliary lighting without a full kit.
4. Letric Lighting Saddlebag Filler LED Inserts
Don't overlook your rear lighting! The Letric Lighting Saddlebag Filler LED Inserts replace your stock saddlebag fillers with bright, clean LED lighting that dramatically improves your rear visibility and gives your bike a modern look.
Best for: Riders who want a complete lighting upgrade front to back.

Installation Tips
All of our complete kits are designed for bolt-on installation with no cutting or splicing required. That said, here are a few tips:
- Use our plug-and-play wiring harness — it's designed specifically for your year and model, making installation straightforward
- Check your fuse box after install to make sure everything is properly powered
- Aim your lights properly — auxiliary lights pointed too high can blind oncoming traffic
