Light Upgrades

Seeing the light mods posted and breaking off one of large tailights got me clicking away on Amazon for light upgrades, seen these headlights somewhere......

Tailights were low cost but not sealed at all. Silicon works.

Put plenty on and easily removed extra after it was dry.

New light. Couple of issues for my quads (150 Kandi's). While the correct connector came with the units the pigtails weren't long enough so splicing was involved. I couldn't stretch enough out of the factory harness to make up the difference. The mounting studs did not match any of the three patterns that came on the bike, now it has four.

Time will tell how much abuse these will take but the lights were cheap, they use less juice and are bright as all get out. Now if I can figure out how to post more than 1 picture per post on this phone I would be a pro.

The headlight install has been covered well by others. The only difference is I opted for the cyclops look because A) I am cheap (ask 2LZ) and B) I wanted the light protected from the brush and low branches we ride through in the forest here. These lights are bright!

I thought being "Cheap" came with the "China Badge of Approval" (aren't we all a bit "Cheap" on this forum" )

Yes....but it's a stacked deck here. The masses have no idea how cheap you really are. You make an average China Rider look like a Kardashian! ;-)

Thanks for the link!
