Headlight change
« on: June 25, 2012, 09:11:56 PM »
I have a 2010 with 14000 miles and no problems except a burned out low beam.Anybody know how to do it? Pics would help.This is a much better forum than the the other Kymco Forum that lumps every model together.

There is only one bulb, it does high and low, unless you are talking about the side running lights.  I believe to change the main bulb you remove the panel just above it, it has three screws with Allen type heads on it, I'm only guessing, I've never done it before, but that's how it looks to get to the main bulb.

A headlight can be an important part of your vehicle. Whether it's evening or dark climate, you will need to see what you're driving towards. So examine around different vehicle equipments sites for best company's headlight.

Did you swap the bulb, I can tell you how to to it, I had all the front plastic off today.  It's slightly a pain.

Can someone confirm that the way to replace the front headlight is by removing the remove the panel just above it with the three screws with Allen type heads on it? 

I'm buying this guy!: http://www.shopatron.com/products/productdetail/part_number=15962/353.0.1.1

You will also have to take a whole bunch of screws from the other side ,and a couple of nuts and bolts. The whole front plastic panel can then be lifted off after you disconnect all of the connectors. Its way more complicated then it should be.
