New Headlight Bulb
#12



(02-05-2015, 09:37 PM)Honda Lover_imp Wrote: I was recently researching some LED headlight options to brighten up the front and increase visibility to other motorists. I often read while an LED bulb gave off more light, beam length and dispersion varied depending on the type of reflector housing and shape of the bulb. Rather than chance LED and install another relay, I went the most certain route and purchased a Piaa H4 Extreme White Plus 55watt halogen bulb. Piaa part number 15224. Same actual wattage as stock) I actually bought a 2 pack for $55 w/free shipping off eBay as I installed one in my 08 VTX1800 T as well. It accomplishes exactly what I was looking to do with an easy install. Take a look at before & after photos. It's a whiter, longer casting beam. Almost has an HID look. 15"+ of snow will prevent a road test until Spring buy it passed the "garage test" .

Bulb part number update & correction: The correct Piaa bulb for motorcycles is Piaa bulb 70456 which features the anti vibration feature. The Piaa 15224 bulb stated in my original post has the correct wattage and fitment, however it was designed for automobiles and does not specify the anti vibration feature for motorcycles. If you like this type of lighting for your headlight, be sure to order the motorcycle specific Piaa 70456 bulb.
