I love the way the VTX headlight looks...  but,,, since I can't change my headlight and have the ability to go between tour windshield and Magna Deluxe fairing, I was wondering if there is a bulb replacement that can offer more light?  Has anyone mounted aux lights to a Deluxe that looked nice?

I'm thinking that light might be a little on the narrow side, isnt' the VTX like 8" across?  This ones just under 6".

Phillips Vision Plus bulbs are a bit brighter than stock at the same wattage or just bump the wattage. I think Murph carries the Vision Plus. If you go up very much on the watts you should add a relay and maybe a high temp H4 socket. The 1st Gen Magna sockets will melt with a high wattage bulb. A possible source for H4 bulbs in non standard wattages is http://www.rallylights.com/hella/H4.asp. I am not connected with them, I did order my bulbs from them and was happy with the service. Or just do a Google search for H4 bulbs.
