    ebay led headlight

    Just wondering if anyone has bought / used this headlight? I really like the look of it, and the fact that its low amperage led.

    On your side of the pond, does "NON-E MARKED" & "SHOW USE ONLY" mean it can't be used on the road?

    Other than that, I'd be interested in seeing some kind of testing on the light pattern and candlepower it puts out.

      According to this page, http://www.radiocad.com/_downloads/r...rking-faqs.pdf

      Anything in the United Kindom or Europe would need to be emarked to pass a safety inspection. Unless I read that wrong.

      Seeing how they are not approved there, I doubt they are legal to use in the States either.

        According to the location in his profile, he is all of 200 miles south east of you.

        What do you mean by "On your side of the pond"?

        The only "pond" between the two of you is Lake Michigan.

            Yep, 850GT_Rider is in Wisconsin, near Milwaukee. (He is the one that used the term "on your side of the pond, ...")

            Brettwg, the original poster, is in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

            Draw a line between the two, see what body of water it traverses.

              brett, I stumbled upon that one on Ebay too. I like it as well, but with our crap economy it is just too expensive...

              Nice looking though!

                  My suggestion if you want to upgrade to LED headlight is go for the Truck-lite 7 inch drop in H4 replacement. Its a bit more money but is DOT approved.

                    I need an entire replacement headlight bucket. I want one that is all matte black and I havn't been able to find one. I don't really care if its not dot approved.... as long as it puts out enought light. and the trucklight led is $280!

                        Sadler (a local parts supplier) demoed the led trucklites at my shop and they were awesome. I'm sure this eBay version is nowhere near the output of them but I'm sure they can't be far off.
