I was in the auto parts store and saw an H4 Silverstar Ultra on sale ... and remembering Spud's review of the light distribution of the stock headlight vs the LED, I decided to buy one and try it out in the RX3.
I'm aware of the potential heat issues, so I'll keep an eye on the temps.
The swap was easy ... although I don't know why Zonghsen used NINE screws on the headlight assembly! I went for a ride tonight and the difference was amazing ... so much light! And the high beams lit up everything!
Now, I've used Silverstars before and they have a limited life. They're also sensitive to vibration, so I may kill this light early. But if I do, I'll just replace it with a standard H4 halogen. Meanwhile, I won't be afraid to ride the RX3 at night anymore!
