    Headlight replacment?

    Looked on the forum , couldn't find a oem replacment for my 1978 gs750 , I would like just the bulb and not the whole bucket. Will this fit? http://www.z1enterprises.com/ItemDet...item=TU20-0079

    Emgo use to make a replacement lens that would allow you to add any H4 bulb of your choosing. I would suggest looking for a lens assembly in the size you need instead of buying a sealed lens/bulb assembly. That way you can leverage all this new LED tech and get a quality bulb that will actually light up the road.





    but frankly it would be cheaper to buy the whole lens bucket assembly and just use the lens then it would be to try and find just a lens.

    this is one of those areas where a few more dollars up front makes a huge difference down the road, figuratively and literally.

      Have you measured your existing sealed beam and compared it to the Z1 unit? If it fits, that's a cost effective solution and likely brighter.

        Check these reflectors out for H-4 bulbs. I use one and they are high quality and fit right into your housing.
