Thanks.  Just received the MM10 kit yesterday and will more than likely be installing them tomorrow, Wednesday, 10/17.  Will let you all know how it goes.   ;D

556ALPHA, where did you mount the switch that came with your MM10 kit?

I have been looking for a set of lights for a while that did not require a dimmer and provided excellent visibility to catch the attention of oncoming vehicles.  These were reasonable in price (apx 150.00 shipped with harness, 110.00 w/o harness.  The harness was easy to install but I will be changing the connectors where the harness plugs into the lights out to a better waterproof style in the future.  They are apx. 1040Lm and are not obnoxious to oncoming drivers at night.  I really wanted the Clearwaters but could not swing the 500.00 price tag.  There is a thread explaining them over on the ADV forum (http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=751838&page=19) so I will let you guys read all about them over there if you are interested.  I mounted them with the supplied hardware to the reflector brackets and it is a perfect fit.  Here are a few shots:

As I always keep them on I placed my switch inside the tanks glovebox. If I needed to have it readily available I would have purchased the mounting pas twisted throttle sells for the Denali's.

I do t blame you on that, I would do the same.  Home Depot has spacers if you need them.

Yeah, either there or Lowes....think I will trace the outside edge of the switch, cut her out, clean up the edges, paint her black, add a spacer and go from there.  Thanks.

Ordered the Mondo lights, and lights from Skene Designs.  Going to mount the Mondo lights outboard on the canyon bars. The Skene Design photon blasters on the fenders and the P3 lights on the rear.  I should be set for riding this winter.  If they hit me they can't say it's because they didn't see me, it will be because they were out to get me.

Finishing up the install of these today, once the mail comes and delivers the waterproof connectors I ordered.  I mounted them to the front fender bolts, so we'll see if that works out.  I like the install in the reflector mount also, so I may move it back there at some point.  Here are some pics.

Finishing up this and installing the HID kit and air filter today.   Everything will be white when I'm done.
I like that, but does the light beam bounce with the front wheel travel?

Not that I can tell...they are down low enough that you can't see the light pattern move. I also have HIDs that pretty much overpower the driving lights anyway.

Another location about the same height would be the fairing mount that is just behind the wheel.  I could see the wheel or fender blocking the light when turned. 

I'm still curious to see if anyone notices the light beam bounce when mounted on the front wheel/fender/reflector mount.
