In these days of car headlights that are that bright the blind you when meeting them in the lanes, and they're legal and up to date with vehicle construction and use regs, does my 2 candle power headlight dipping the wrong side really matter? ::)

Will get one from David Silvers then, thanks for that.
I got a new seat cover from them but it comes with a black bead for around the seat and I guess I am gona have to source a chrome one now, phew, fitted quite well though and looks quite nice.

You don't need to go to DS unless you are after 100% originality, as i said any 7 inch car light even th eH4 halogen will fit, only problem with halogen is battery won't charge till over 4,000 revs!!

Never thought of a car one, thanks for that.
Any tips for getting into all the little awkward bits on my side casings and so on, spent a whole shift today and still loads to do. Bought a polishing kit but the small ones are not aggressive enough. Phew what a job.

Can't really answer your question but do you cross reference part numbers between US and Euro bikes? If they are the same then the headlights would be the same. CMSNL.com has THE most extensive listings of bikes by country. Give them a try for cross referencing.
