Honda PCX 2013 - Changing LED Headlight

Post by Cyruscmh »

I would like to change the headlight to LED.
But I have a question on the DC / AC...
I am going to replace the headlight to this LED light. Is it I additional need a AC/DC converter?

so does it means that after removing the original headlight bulb, i just need to connect the 3 pins of the LED directly to the original socket like below photo, then it's OK?

I have done exactly that. Changed round connectors to flat ones and they fit original socket so I can switch back to halogen lights if needed.

Hmm.... Didn't realize this would be so easy. :)

What's the part number for the LED bulb? And where to buy?

I also did the switch about a year ago and used the Posi-tap connectors. It's an HS5 bulb but currently not on ebay where I found mine. Hmmm. Hope you can find a decent price somewhere. Remember you need two.

Oh, and Cyruscmh, please add your location information. It can really help especially if someone else is a PCX guru in your area :)
