I have these mounted in the chrome shells.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003Y7ZUTM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I am looking for a 4 1/2" LED replacement.

I want to be able to put the new lights into the existing shell.

They are H3 fitting. Remember my electrical skills are VERY basic.

I replaced the 55-Watt H3 Halogen Bulbs with 50-Watt, High Performance, H3 LED 360 Bulbs in my Spotlights.
I used Pathfinder Part No. HC350W,  Pure White -6000K. I am very pleased with the results.    cooldude

Eagle Lights make some 4 1/2” spot lights that will fit into Cobra with minimum amount of modification. Electrically wise they are plug and play and all is required is to grind some cooling fins at the back of the lights a little to fit in a stock fixture
They are very bright and good quality

Gentlemen,

I rep Eagle Lights headlights and can get you a great deal on 4.5" Auxiliary lights that have a lifetime warranty.

Please go to www.eaglelights.com and browse the "LED Spot Lights" section. I give my fellow Valkyrie brethren $10.00 off the listed prices when you order through myself.

Email me ValkyrieJosh@gmail.com with your selection and to make your purchase.

Purchased them from JP Cycles. That was back in September of 2017. I am very pleased with them.
It is my intention to replace the Head Light Bulb with a Pathfinder LED 4H 6000K Bright White LED Bulb.

I'm running these Sunpie's.  Super inexpensive.

Third season, still nice and bright.

I just noticed that I posted the wrong part number for the H3 LED Bulbs in my Valkyrie’s Spotlights. The Pathfinder’s Part No. is H3C50W.
My fat fingers posted the number incorrectly. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

You're welcome. Wasn't sure after I posted them if they were what you were looking for. Cool.

You should scroll back in this thread and notice the
DarksideR post... he has proper LED headlights and
a valkyrie specific mounting bracket for it.
