Take pix Mrmike and do a tutorial so we can all take advantage.  I need to do the same to install the Stebl horn I just got.

  I can take the pictures and get them on my computer with no problem. Where I have trouble is trying to re-size them to meet the forum guidelines. Agilebda sent me a PM, and he is going to take his apart again and take pictures for me. Perhaps he will put them on the forum for everyone's benefit.

Any time Sir! ;)

There are a BUNCH more Utube vids, and there are as many free software-s out there to do the same.

One that I found easy is  https://imageresizer.codeplex.com/  It's just a right click on the Pict., and follow the prompt.

Those h4's get hot don't they? Any issues of melting sockets and plastic housings that weren't designed for that intense heat?

No they don't get hot. They're LED. No problems here at all.

I use a butter knife. Thin, and dull edged. One side of the tab is a square bottom "U", and the other side is a wedge w/ a flat lip.
You have to apply downward pressure, and twist the blade between the 1/2's.
Start in the center first. That way IF a tab breaks it will not show up later. Once you see which 1/2 has the "U" shape they will pop apart easily.

Thank you for that info. I'll order my bulbs now and install them in April when I put the scoot on the road again.
 

UPDATE:  Finally got my new bulb installed two weeks ago. Nice bright white light matches the factory and LED lights I installed. Can't wait for spring to see how they light up the road. I really don't ride a lot at night, so this was mainly a cosmetic change for me. Very pleased with the results. Thank you everybody for your help with this project.

It is a very nice Mod. Peace of mind for long lasting bulbs, and Much less draw on the stator / electrical system.

I highly recommend this one.
