Roughhouse Headlight replacement bulb

Post by meaty »

Hi guys, that stock headlight bulb stinks. I saw the headlight replacement threads for the Buddy and thought I would give it a try with my Roughhouse.

Well, the 55W/60W Sylvania H4 works great, except the bulb is not an exact replacement--there are two very small metal tabs at the base of the metal bulb socket that do not line up with the slots in the headlight assembly. Does anyone know what the correct replacement bulb is?

The H4 works just fine--I used a pliers to bend the tabs out of the way and have experienced no issues, other than a much brighter road!

I can take pictures if anyone's interested...

i'm not sure but everything i have checked says that the PIAA Super Plasma GT-X HS1 is the best replacement. i'm looking to switch my stock bulb for that, anyone have any experience with it?
