Looking for replacement sidelights - SV650.org

northwind · 22-11-04, 12:41 AM

One of the things I like about the 2WJ full fairing that you see is the way it gets rid of the "sidelight" in the middle of the bike's nose. Not a fan... having looked it over, it should be easy to fill the hole when I'm doing my respray, but I'd like to replace the light with lights elsewhere. There's 2 obvious locations- the fake intakes on the lowers, or the holes under the headlights- but I can't find a compact enough 12V 5W lamp. (well, I found one but they were $70 each!)

Anyone got any ideas where I could find a wee lamp for the job? I can modify the lowers a little to make space but they've got to be maybe 4cm round, or a bit bigger if they go in the space under the headlights....

What about LED cluster in the space?

Speak to 'Freelander'

He got mine for me, but he can get anything you want - Give him some dimentions & he'll source you some

Bought a pair of blue LED's off E-Bay for £1.99, they do the job just fine!
