Why I did of course...

Still not 100 percent done on mine however.
All the bracketry and main components are inplace and working just as I had hoped.

But its all the details that make it a nice job as everyone knows.

Just started cracking back into it, and I am now just finishing up the switchback front running light/turns in the original single element turns.
That took a bit of fiddling to do right.

I do need to find a really good way to reattach the lenses to the housings that look good without spill over from the adhesives.

Any one have good ideas how to semi permanently, and confidently, reattach the lenses back to the housings.


These are the threads on the topic that I know of.

not sure about other states. California law is the center marker of your headlight needs to be at least 22 inches from the ground.

Try some older Yamaha R1 headlights.

HIDs, turn signals, high and low beams. They are relatively close to the same shape - if you are going to all that work anyway...

Are the 99 spec combination lamps easy to open in order to perform these mods?

Anyone able to offer instructions on how to open these? For example, 300F at 8 minutes?

Thanks in advance
