« on: January 04, 2014, 11:24:13 AM »

Anyone know of a good aftermarket lamp that will fit in the radiator pods on an I/S? Mine don't have them but would like a set.or will the Honda line ones for a GW fit? Thanks in advance.

Try O,Reily's, 35 watt, $25.00. You can mount them on the sides of the pods. Be sure to install a relay.

No one ever made pod lights aftermarket except Big Mike, and I don't know if he has anything left. There are probably some Hondaline lights left somewhere, but you will need a bank loan to buy them. I think I read Big Mike was closing his Valk stuff out, so no idea if he has anything left. You could start hacking and install a set of lights in the pods on your own cooldude

kinda late for the lights in the pods..... sources dried up.... unless you get em from a salvage bike or something.

Get a set of external driving lights and mount em to the scoops under the engine guard and use a relay/switch. Easier/cheaper to replace if need be. And they give a good light triangle to be seen, let alone see....

Plenty of lights would fit in the pods, but the work it will take to get them mounted under the pods, in perfect alignment with the pod fronts, cutting the pods (they are pre marked/scribed inside for size of the OE pod/fog lights, and making a perfect fitting rubber boot to fit your pod cutouts and around the lights you choose will be a challenging job.

Mount some PIAA 1100Xs on the top brake caliper bolts. Or on the engine guard, just outboard of the pods with Kuryaykn P-clamps. These are driving lights, not fogs, and 10 times better than the OE fogs.
