There is an "inbox" on YouTube? Im not too techy lol im still blowing fuses and its gettin frustrating! The stock had a white, blue, and green. I think the green was low beam and the blue was high. So the white would be the ground right?
@tsteel80 You need to look at the service manual for your bike, there should be a wiring diagram for everything on the bike, maybe in an appendix. On my bike there is orange, white, yellow, black, orange was unused, but was always hot. White was high beam, yellow was low beam, and black was ground. You wire the ground to one wire from each bulb, then put the other wires on whichever would be best for the situation. I didn't want my center lights to go out when i turn the brights on so I put them
@tsteel80 on orange, so they are always on, and i put the outside white lights, on white wire, for high beam. You need to either find a manual or diagram online to tell you which wire is which, or you need to get a multimeter, and test what the circuits are. If you only have 3 wires it's probably high/low and ground, but if your low beam goes out when you switch to high, it will turn off the center bulbs when you switch to high beam.
@tsteel80 To get around that you might wire the center blue lights to both the high and low, but the outside lights to just the high beam. You really need to put a multimeter, or a 12v circuit tester on it and see how the circuit is set up. If the low beams stay on when you switch to high, you can wire it normally. I can't imagine why you'd be blowing fuses though, LEDs use less current than halogens.
@tsteel80 Yes there is an inbox on youtube, it shows when you receive friend requests, personal messages, when someone replies to one of your comments, or when someone comments on a video of yours. That's how I know when you are messaging me, lol.
Cool, thanks for the response. I mounted mine on my cb750 yesterday and it looks awesome except I keep blowing fuses tryin to get the wiring right. Can u give advice? Tsteel80@Yahoo.com
@tsteel80 Ummmm...without seeing the wiring myself there's not much i can tell you. Mine had a circuit for high beam, low beam, and constant hot, and i put the center blue lights on the constant hot so they're always on, and put the outside white lights on high beam, there's no polarity as far as i can tell, just wire the two blue lights and the two white lights in parrallel, and attach them positive to negative on whatever circuit you're doing, i soldered everything and it took a while.
@tsteel80 Technically, yes you could, but you should not if you intend to drive at night time. I got very affordable turn signals off of ebay that look good and are extremely bright. You can see them in some of my other videos.
@koorider Indeed they are, the blue lights are bright enough to ride on a totally dark street, and they light up signs really weall. The side lights that i use as my brights light up the road perfectly.
@koorider I purchased it on ebay from a powerseller named 2wheelscustom. Most of if not all of these headlights, including ones that say they're specifically for the buell blast, require you to splice the wires so be sure you're capable of doing that correctly before ordering one because it won't be plug and play. Between the soldering and crimping, and changing the mounting brackets and remounting the turn signals I spent almost 3 hours on this headlight.

@koorider I tried to make a video of them at night and you can't see anything on the camera, i need a higher quality camera that has a low light mode to show what it would look like to a human being. I can see fine by the light from it, a camera phone cannot.
Does that headlight model have turn sugnals attached also?

I just got the same headlights from the same eBay store, after A LOT of hassle with them. Cant u wire the outer lights to be used as ur turns?

@hzuiel Nice I was considering buying them. Do you know the name of the seller? Can you make a video of it in the dark! Thanks.

@hzuiel I see well i take your word that they are bright enough for night time use!

@koorider If you're really really concerned you could always mount fog lights below it to the forks, and still keep the cool look of the headlight.
