LED Lights

Post by Urbanfreestyle »

So folks, with getting my new bike i thought i would lone up some new parts! I'm already looking at changing my sidelights to leds and was looking at changing my headlights to these: ebay number:261490405975

Its a 2013 black pcx125 esp uk model if that makes any difference?

Wrong sort of bulbs I'm afraid. H4 bulbs are usually fitted to car headlamps. You ones you are looking for are HS5 bulbs. They are quite hard to find. I think you can get xenon conversions for them but HS5's are double filament so I don't know how the xenons would work as they are normally single filament. I'm sure there will some sort of workaround but I personally haven't looked into it.

After a quick search if I found this. http://www.ledperf.co.uk/pack-of-2-bulb ... -5750.html
Not xenon or LED but look a bit brighter. It might be the easier option.
You will require two bulbs obviously.

Have a rake about the net. You might get something more local or cheaper, depending where you are.

You may want to try this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171340858916?_t ... 48&vxp=mtr

I bought two bulbs, but have to have my dealer install them. Couldn't remove the stock bulbs for the life of me.

They look like they will fit. Don't know if they are any good though. Are you going to be the test pilot?

I thought about it but the bikes away for the worse of the winter, so it's end of February until I will do anything with it.
