Or you can go to walmart and buy a set of Truck lights for like 20 bucks.. Mount em up and youre good to go. It works too because my friend has one on his snow mobile.

The day begins with 3WW
I had truck lights on my '85 X years ago. There isn't enough juice to run them both but one will work just fine. If you can find the right bulbs you can make two work.
There is a way to make a 350x light work as I've seen it done before. Not sure how it was done though. I just assumed he was using the 350x lighting coil but I have never really messed with the lights too much. A friends father got the truck lights working on my X, not me.

I thought that trikes had a regulator to keep revving from popping bulbs... maybe your machine is missing something. My 110's bulb stays the same brightness no matter if it's at idle or redline.

By simply adding a Volt pack you can avoid blowing bulbs ( 12volt system ). Also, I can get non halogen Bulbs that work in the 350x's and many other machines for around $3 each. In fact they are the only style I use in the machines they fit in. Sure I give up a small amount of light, but then I don't do much night riding anyway.

running a bulb at low wattage won't hurt it.. just dimmer.
Problem with high wattage bulbs and trikes with batteries.. is they suck alot of juice and the light drains more than the charging system can provide to the battery... one and your ok.. 2 x 35 w is pushing it .. anymore and it's too much.
