I was just wondering if anyone here has any information on the headlight up for auction on eBay.  I've been looking at it for quite a while and it looks nice.  The seller has done a lot of documenting and even fabricated a bracket to go with it (for sale separately). It is about 1/2 as much as the VTX conversion.  Anyone have any thoughts?  Obviously both look better than the 80's style that came on it, but I also want it to shine brighter.  Do I just need one of those super powered bulbs?  Thanks for your time, dc.

Here is the link to the auction:

Here is a picture of the Headlight that is for sale:




This is a picture of his mount (obviously with a different light).  I like this light better, but apperently does not sell this one.  Does anyone recognize this model?  Thanks in advance, dc

Something to consider:
The problem with that headlight is that it uses a different bracket. On the Magna, the signal light rubber brackets also tie into headlight bracket. Notice how he has also changed out the signal lights? If you don't change out blinkers then you'll have to deal with a finding an attractive way to keep the stock signal lights mounted.

I bought my VTX headlight used for $125. You can check salvage yards or do what I did. I posted a "want to buy" WTB on a VTX board.
