Title: LED parking light
Post by: littlefreak3000 on December 19, 2014, 11:25:31 AM

Does anyone know of a LED replacement for our parking light? I recently installed an LED headlight and would like  an LED parking light to match, since it runs when your headlight is on as well.

I just upgraded my parking light to a much brighter LED that I bought off of Amazon.  Phillips offers it in different color temperatures and I went with the 4,000K and am happy with the color which is a nice white and it is very bright!!
 I was hoping that the bulb swap was going to be very quick but I had to remove the entire headlight housing to get access to the bulb which is in a rubber sleeve/ plug.

Thanks that's exactly what I was looking for. And by your image it should match my LED head light perfectly.

@+progress-,

Just for info...
There's no need to remove the entire housing to replace the parking light bulb.
True, the rubber plug is a very tenacious piece of hardware to remove, but in the end I succeeded without pliers.(though sweaty fingers will make the task even more difficult).

I saw the light looking at the yamaha MT03 owners manual (see download link on page http://www.ownerservicemanual.com/921-owners-manual-for-yamaha-mt-03-motorcycle.html (http://www.ownerservicemanual.com/921-owners-manual-for-yamaha-mt-03-motorcycle.html)) on page 78 - replacing an auxiliary light bulb.
Turns out the MT03 has exactly the same triom headlight enclosure.

littlefreak, can you tell me what LED headlight you ordered? Did you add this parking light too? Thanks.

This is the headlight I got. Some modifying needed to get it to fit because the bulb has a weird tab on it. I just kind of forced it in and it worked. Got the parking light too. Since I had my accident at the start of the riding season I haven't really gotten to see how well they work at night. But from just testing them in my garage its a lot brighter and seems to work great.
