headlight for gs400

[woodytwoshoes]

Does anyone know a good place to buy the sealed beam for my 78-79 gs400?
Thanks,
Woody

Hi,

You might want to upgrade from the sealed beam. Any of the major online aftermarket vendors should have a generic H4 headlight kit that will work on your bike. Shop around at Dennis Kirk or J.C. Whitney. There are more listed in your "mega-welcome".


Thank you for your indulgence,

I picked up a sealed beam housing from Autozone for my 79 550. Walmart also has them. I do agree that ditching the sealed beam is a good idea, but I needed a new headlight ASAP.

The up side to switching to an H4 is that you have options for bulbs.

Hey, thanks guys, do they sell a 6-1/2 inch one?
I went to the local auto store and they had 5s and 7-1/2 only. Im wondering if i can punch out the bulb from the back, it seems loose, then put a bulb type in which would be an upgrade.
Thanks,
Woody

Well, I got the bulb out quite easily, tomorrow I will take it to the auto parts store and see if i can fit a halogen into it. I will keep you posted.
Thanks,
