I have a spare LED if you want cross to the dark side. So to speak.
Relatively little extra gubbins, and it's all outside the shell, if I remember correctly.

I removed it because a single one nags LAMPF on dipped, but two combined on main beam make the CANBUS happy.
I'd say they are as bright as your HIDs, but we'll have to do a test one day night.

Many ta's kind sir. But I like the out of sight nature of the HID kit and if just one triggers the LampF thingy then that would be a no-no. Actually for the amount of night riding I do I might as well not bother replacing it at all...

A single LED as the other high beam with a car kit HID (low and high) would be the perfect solution.   :winkthumbs:
