[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 561287, member: 23472"] Mandalore, your [B]basic[/B] idea is correct, but your Xenon light will also need a ballast unit (£70 ) which is why it says 40v AC. I have also not looked at the cost (But you will need) 1) Plugs to connect to what you already have. 2) Plugs to connect the ballast unit 3) Suitable switches 4) Suitable enclosure for the ballast unit and switches and power supply 5) Suitable mount for the headlight itself 6) Flasher unit for indicator 7) Wiring diagram to show how each plug should be connected. It may sound an interesting project, but the more you look into it, the more expensive it becomes. 🥸 [/QUOTE]
