Hello . Has anyone switched to LED headlights yet? I found these on Amazon .Truck-Lite (27270C) Headlamp..Price: $167.44 + $14.99 shipping. I also have been looking at these. I put one of them in my bike and what a difference.Bright 6000k 3000lm 32w Dc12v Led Lamp DRL Fog Light LED Motorcycle Headlight Bulb for KTM Honda.Sale:$25.90 + Free Shipping. I just don't know if they would fit. Anyone with a thought on this?

I have the Truck-Lite 7" on my Pinz. They produce a strong very white light.
One possible drawback is that during driving sleet or snow, the headlights tend to accumulate a coating which blocks the beam because they don't produce enough heat like regular bulbs. Truck-Lite recently announced a new version of this bulb with a heated lens but they are quite a bit pricier.

Got them on the Volvo, very bright, like them!

If I just wanted to do the bulbs and keep OEM glass, what style/type bulb am I looking for? would it be like an H4 or 11? Thanks. Brian

You can't replace your stock bulb with an LED that will work. The technology isn't there yet. That Trucklite unit has several LEDs in it and it was optically designed to make them focused and powerful enough to serve as a headlight.

Guys I just wanted to jump in and say that over the weekend I installed the Truck Light 7" LED's and they are awesome. They are just a "plug and play" device where you unplug the old and plug in the new. They work great and are a huge improvement from my dingy old yellow headlights that were stock on my 710M. I left the old spring set up connected and ran my plug through the center of it so the lights would line up properly when reinstalled. As of now, I don't have to adjust them. I think they are spot on; but will continue to check them when I drive at night to make sure they don't need a little tweak. If you are thinking about making the change I would encourage it. Total cost was less than $400 for the pair and my blind self can now see!
