I'm thinking of adding lights to my pods on my interstate, is there a light kit for this or were I can buy
Them or do I need to watch eBay for them. Thanks for your input.

Mike at Valkyrie Bling & More, one of our VRCC sponsors, made up a kit for that mod.  You might check with him to see if he still has some available.  Watch for his add at the top of the pages here, or 313-768-5014.

Yes and no.  They do help make you more visible and throw more light on the road.  But the cost is prohibitive.  Far less expensive to mount aux lights on front that are not pod lights and get the same results at 1/5 the cost.

I have pod lights but I bought them during production when they had a cost that made sense.  If I was doing it today, I'd pass.

I just added some lights next to my pods.  They don't look as much like a factory option as the pod lights do, but I think they look pretty good.  26 bucks at Walmart.
I don't have any pictures handy, but they show up pretty well in this video (follow the link on the lower left of the failed video embedding window):
