I wired the European front turn signals as running lights. I used cool white LED bulbs. Now the running lights look great, but the factory headlight has that yellowish tint. Does anyone know of a replacement headlight bulb that will give that "whiter" look I'm looking for?
-
Just look for those that say "Super White" on the box or "5000K"... yellowish bulbs are usually 3000K or 3500K ..... The bulb glass is usually blue in color...

I went to several sites, but don't see any kits listed for Kymco. Which kit did you use?
-
They're usually somewhat generic. You figure out what kind of bulb you have and choose a kit
that works for it. You plug into the existing headlight connector and have to run some wires to
the battery. I like these kits, you can do 2 bikes with them but have to add/wire an extra relay
for the second one.

This is a H4 with low/high beam built in. You also need to find a place to hide the ballast...

the 300i downtown uses h8 single low beam light ,. the gt300i I dont know what bulb you need I entered for my scooter h8 35 w low beam hid country,. and picked out what I needed,.
-
I just checked your service manual and it does not list the bulb # ,. but it said it is 55 w ,. do you have seperate bulbs for high beam and low beam,.

I wnet online to Kymcopartsmonster.com. They list the bulb as a 12v60/55w. I'm quite sure it is just the one bulb.
-
looks like your going to open the light to find out the number,. it could be a h8 high and low beam or h11 ,.

OK! I got the info. My stock bulb is a Phillips H4 12342 12v60/55w. Does anyone know of a whiter replacement bulb?

Any brand of Super White H4 will do...

Sylvania Silverstar ZXE shows a H4 bulb. Do all the "H4" bulbs have the same base to plug right in my existing location???

I don't think there are other kinds of H4... H4 refers to the base and nothing else...
