Two best options I have ever found for the H6M bulb are this one.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/H4-BA20D-H6...4AAOSwd0BVsAWA Or this one. https://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-bi.../dp/B017IYY1E6 I know somebody has run the first light and was decently satisfied with it. Nothing to report on the second one.

Just didn't want to mess with any modification
Just didn't want to mess with any modification. I added spots for more visibility (day and night), so the 1600 L is more than enough. I never really go over 50, so no possible way to "over-ride" the beam. I was thinking that more might be obnoxious to oncoming traffic; just like those BMW cars with the crazy amber lights...and freak'n lifted pickups.

So i successfully installed the Ebay LED light above... couple notes.....
****There is not alot of room back there and the ebay headlight bulb sticks out 1-2 inches farther than stock and though you can fit it.... the upgrade has heat fins so presumably it gets hot and there is a chance of the fins hitting wires, cables and what not back there... i am not sure how hot they get.... ****the connection harness is not plug and play but requires some cutting and soldering and heat shrinking... luckily the colors do match up (green white and blue) and is only 3 wires ****the upgrade is nice and bright with a low and a high beam Pretty sure i can see now and just as important i can be seen.

I ordered this same bulb earlier in the week. It looks like a significant improvement with your photo.

who knows where the headlight height adjustment screw on the tbr7 is?....see below..
http://www.chinariders.net/showpost....1&postcount=15 thanks Borg! Adjusting the headlight on the Tao Tao Tbr7: Remove front fender (4 bolts on the under side), once fender is off look up and under the light housing. You will see an 8mm bolt and a washer on a plastic slider track. Loosen and push the headlight in from the top, you will see the bolt slides toward your or to the front. Then tighten and put the fender back on. I found the light to be 4 feet in front of me when it arrived, once adjusted I am getting about 15-20 feet on low beam and about 25ish feet on high beam
