Replacing Halogen headlight bulb with an LED

[CnCbuss]

Hello guys. The standard H4 bulb on my ‘82 wing is not very bright. I’m wondering if anyone has tried replacing with an LED headlight bulb such as this one (No separate ballast required) and if it throws the electrical system off?

The 38 year old reflector in the headlight has probably faded badly....a brighter bulb won't help much.

Some people have just replaced the entire assembly with a 7 inch LED, which is much brighter (and easier on your electrical system):

I replaced mine in my 86 without a hitch.

not to hijack the thread, but i've ordered these and never been able to make them fit. could I get a pick from someone of how they installed theirs please?

I installed one from Amazon. Had to tweek the deflector up slightly inside the housing, but it's an excellent value and is working great with maximum light.
