Finally got all the parts together to install them. They sit atop a Dakar bracket, and a Harley headlight extension. I had to use an 8mm Sockethead Capscrew, instead of the included 3/8" one to mount it to the bracket. Also had to add some starlock washers on top, mid, and below the bracket to keep it sighted in. The bracket flexes a bit more than I'd like, and I'll be making some reinforcement for it later. They are wired to a Neutrino Aurora Plus, which turns on the marker light on startup, low beam prior to sunset and the high beams are triggered by the stock high beam any time. (I wanted to have the highs only come on after sunset, with the stock high beams, but I can't figure out how to do that yet. It only allows me to trigger via sunset or trigger signal :| )
Tonight will be the first night ride. Pics and opinion to follow...
I know this was an expensive option, but I ride many hours in the pitch black. Many close calls with various animals and other obstacles have driven me here. A flat, fixed aux beam wouldn't fit the bill, as I like to carve corners.
