I did not think about or remember the D/C output of the Vape Unit or Powerdynamo like I have. I need to seek a H4 led sometime in the future. the 65 watt headlight does throw off a really nice beam so I am in no hurry.

No worries Bigdog, I appreciate the help. I just hope they read their e-mail before they decide to ship.

Hey guys, just to be sure I don't get the wrong headlight, is this the one I need? I did get an e-mail from the ebay seller and he did cancel the order for me so that's good... Here's the link to the one I believe is correct

RHD headlight

EDIT:

Or this one, it has a more classic look to it.

Those are both set up for right hand drive (UK style). Fine if your in the UK, Incorrect for the US.
IF it isn't one thing, it's another.

The Right Hand drive refers to the Steering Wheel placement , so you need to seek out
the Left Hand drive version . Your Lucas link was exactly the same unit as Bigdog had
originally suggested , and you'd already ordered .

Here is a link for a Hella headlight. it should be correct for the US.


here is one for a set of 4 glass faced semi sealed beam. if you have multiple bikes to convert or you want spares, here's your ticket.

we have all been in a situation before, too eager to get our feet wet and make bad decisions. don't be too hard on yourself.

I would call accidentally ordering a RHD headlight "a very, very easy mistake to make".

Not that I'm biased or have done the same thing or anything.... :whistle:
