Big Red front rack LED lights - Anyone have any pictures of what they have done?

[afdfirefighter]

I am about to weld a custom plastic light bar/lighting system the the front of my 250es Big Red Rack. I've got two lights on the rear rack for lighting during night rides and would like a little extra to the front. I have already swapped the stock headlight bulb for an LED and the tail lights to LED so I can run the lights for a long time without worrying about my battery going down. Also going to make a nice spot to put the GoPro in this rack setup.

Anyone out there done anything like this, or any modifications to to their front rack on their 3 wheeler for that matter. Thanks for the input in advance.

Nope, just thought about it however.
I was following neighbor with no taillight lense and it was annoying as he&^%.
I have a couple lights I'd like to mount on the back rack too, but with a switch.
Front?
I got some fog lights I may try to hook up since I have them but the led thing is THE way to go foir sure.
Did you see a post recently with led headlight? Impressive for sure.
Search key maybe?

I think I have H4 halogen in my BR 45? maybe 55 watt and I let it light up the barn for at least an hour. Not sure whay it e started but the old battery (3-4 years at least) didn't flinch and fired it right up.

The picture I posted is of my LED headlight. I have two small LED fog lights mounted to back rack under my rack bag that are switched. I got my LED off of Amazon (2 for $10). Yes, LED is the way to go. I am going to make something out of plastic welded like a custom light rack and make it look good. Even thought of wiring a USB to the rack that will allow me to plug my GoPro in and not have to worry about battery. Probably overkill but hey why not...

These are what I am going to put on the front rack I believe.

What are you using for an LED replacement in the stock headlight? Any mods to make it work or did you find a direct replacement?

I have been trying to find an LED replacement to the stock bulb for my 200ES for a couple years now, but nobody seems to make the right type. Isn't the 250ES that same oddball bulb?

I got this off of amazon. $10 for 2. Very nice and don't have to worry about battery.

Some quick Googling suggests the 250ES is an H4 bulb, a search on Amazon turns up this: http://www.amazon.com/Generic-LED-18...ds=h4+led+bulb

Those look exactly like what afdfirefighter has pictured. I'm not sure what a 200ES uses for a bulb, but if it's an H4 then those should work.

Yep same seller and everything. I have tail light and my speedo is next.

Have you tried them yet? Someone said they are not bright enough for use as a headlight in the reviews.

[afdfirefighter]

Yes I have tried them. They are almost as bright as the halogen. But they do lack just a tad bit of light. They are good enough for driving at night. But I like to ride trails and woods at night, so that is why I am putting two more LEDs in the front. My main reason for LED is to use them and not have to worry about my battery. I also use my big red for when I'm hunting. So I have to use my light at night I do shoot a deer I have to leave it running to have light long enough. I think the LED will solve my solution and let me run the light longer than I would need to.

[afdfirefighter]

I got the lights installed. They are bigger than I originally anticipated but they are the brightest lights I've ever seen. Can't wait to get them in the woods at night. Got the gopro mounted in between them as well. Even got the light in the speedo converted to led. Should be able to let these lights stay on for quite a while without worrying about killing the battery. Yes they make the headlight look like a child's night light.

Nice, those are the square version of the round ones that i have, same guts just different housing. Are they the 90 degree floods or the 60 degree spots? I like how you spread them out farter with the bar. Looks good

Updated the pics so they weren't rotated. The description for them was: Tuff LED Lights 2 X 4" Inch Square 27watt LED Work Lamp Light 1550 Lumen, Off Road, Atv, Utv, Polaris Ranger. So they are only 27w and 1550 Lumens. Haven't had them in the woods to see what kind of lighting degree I am getting with them. Will deft. post a gopro video once I do of the difference in on/off.
