Bonnie America Headlight Upgrade

They DO make LEDs that plug right in to your H-2 socket. I tried one for a.year or two on my '02 America. My complaint was that it did not seem to work well with the stock Triumph lens. When it failed prematurely I went to a yellow H-2 bulb. I do not ride at night much so my priority is not so much to see better. It is more an issue of BEING SEEN by the crazy drivers around here. Motorcraft makes a bulb that is very yellow and stands out in traffic like a sore thumb. If you really want to go LED, I would recommend you change the whole light assembly. The look is different, but a LED seems to need a lens that is made for it. ...J.D.

 

Excuse me. I called these an"H-2". The proper designation is H-4. The bulb I used is a Motorcraft #48885 yellow H-4. You can pick them up on Ebay for under $20. H-2's are the small ones used in some fog lights. I get them mixed up sometimes. ...J.D.

 

I think wire wheels is right about having the proper lens I put led bulbs in my fireblade and it failed the mot it was throwing the wrong beam on there machine
