    Default spyder ST headlights

    Has anyone dug into the headlights on their spyder ST?
    Do they have those dumb clips similar to this: http://www.hidspeed.com/H7-light-bul...erclips-h7.htm

    Is there a rubber dust cap covering the backside of the bulb?
    Anyone have pictures of them?

    Im kicking around the idea of putting HID in but don't want to fight all the crap I dealt with on my RS

    Default Not sure..!!

    but would imagine it is no different that the RS..if you go to cheapcycleparts.com you can look in the parts pages and see the parts involved. If you have a shop manual you will see it there too...good luck hope it is easier...

    Default I have

    Hi I have been into the headlights. Put in new higher output bulbs to help me out at night. The first time was a little difficult but after the first time it was easier. They do have rubber caps over the bulbs and it is a little difficult to get them out. They have wire clips not the ones you referenced. Hope this helps.

    IIRC the owners manual calls for removal of the instrument cluster to access the headlight bulbs. Comes out pretty easy, not a big deal.
