I was thinking the same thing just a few days ago for my 01 FLHT. Finally decided on getting the digital guard dawg. Ordered the one they told me too, got it, went to install it, and it was the wrong one. Called them up, and had someone really helpful. He shipped me a new one before I even returned my other one. Still haven't received it yet, but I am confident the next one will work. I don't think that the stock one would have done anything except cost more money. My bro in law has an 08 FLHX and if someone tries to move his, the lights just flash a little. Why pay 5x as much for a few flashy lights? Just my .02
