Status: offline 		i might want to add some better lights since we are going to be doing some serious night riding at mudstock. I dont really want to add another set of aftermarket lights or anything like that. i would like to add either some hid bulbs or some piaa bulbs. Any tips on what one is better and what part number to get? Thanks KS

Status: offline 		Yeah thats true. But the charging system on the can ams is different than the cats. You can get away with those big lights on a cat and still have the battery charge.

Status: offline 		that's a good idea.  i was thinking of adding a couple fog lights to the front - but then you have to worry about braking them off.  is there a noticable difference with the sylvania's?

Status: offline 		yes there's a pretty noticeable difference. I was also told that the sylvania ss's were brighter than the piaa's were and there about 10$ cheaper also. The bulb is a 9003 or h4. I changed mine after the first night ride I went on. No troubles since.

Cool Blue White Light

Run these on both machines for 2 years, no problems.  They are noticibly brighter than the Sylvania's, and are a whiter/clearer beam.  I am pondering doing the headlight mod as well, even though it is not needed, but I dont know if the battery can handle it.  When I need the lights super bright, I usually have my heated grips/thumb and heated vest on as well, and it might draw too much.

Status: offline 		Sorry, can't rmember the price.  It was 2 years ago, and I bought 6 pairs.  Canadian Dollars as well.  They are worth every penny if you enjoy, or need to be riding late.
