WillG. Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 I'd like to improve the stock head lights. But at this time I don't want to go through everything involved in upgrading the stator and adding a battery. I came across some replacement LED H6M bulbs on this website (about half way down the page). http://autolumination.com/1156_1157.htm Any one try these or have good results from them? If I wanted to run these, would all that would be needed is to convert the shee to DC correct? (which I'm still not very sure how to do) Quote
decon Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Im not too sure about those bulbs but I just did a dc conversion on my banshee and I run HID's, I would NEVER go back to stock lighting. The installation is pretty simple (if you know a little about wiring), you have to float the ground on the stock stator, replace the stock voltage regulator with a regulator/rectifier from Trail Tech, and mount a battery. Snopczynski can recommend some good LED lights, but I think most do require the DC conversion. Check out this thread for more info on the DC conversion: http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=92899 And here is my bike with HID's: http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=147363 Quote
WillG. Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Posted October 7, 2011 Thanks for the response DEcon. I've actually seen your pics on here before. Very nice! I have installed H.I.D. lights on my truck (as well as made it so the low beams, high beams, fogs, and off road lights are all on at the same time!), so I know how great the light output is. I wont lie, I would love to have H.I.D.'s on the quad. But I really don't know exactly how much I'll be riding at night and not sure if I can justify the cost and installation of all that's required to run them. So that's why I was looking into a less involved and cheaper, yet noticeable improvement over stock. I'm kind of surprised that I cant seem to find more H6M LED bulbs and real comparative info on them. I'm not sure if these would be a wast of money to try, since no one seems to have much input or experience with L.E.D. replacement bulbs. Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse lol. Quote
