    Did you have to do any modification for the Mazda bulb to work?? Is it just a standard headlight bulb?

    I went to Auto Zone today and ask for a bulb for a Mazda Miada as atctim suggested. The bulb number that they gave was a Sylvania #9003. It looked like the old bulb. When I got home and installed it, it worked perfect. Time will tell how long. Thanks Atctim for the tip. I don't know about the other trikes, but it will fit a 250Es Big Red. The original bulb in my trike was a Stanley# A5988. The new bulb was 9.99$
