#1. Get either Motosport engine mounts or the Vibratechnics. I have a mix
of both. Your gonna need'em because your motor is gonna shake like
a kid doing the "pee-pee" dance. These mounts will help keep the space
you create in the next step.
#2. Hope your good with a dremel. I have a Masters in it. Now go and buy
a couple of bulbs. Your going to have to remove about 1/2 the porcelain
on the back of the bulb. The trick is to bend the "male" tab at a 90
degree angle off the back of the bulb. Please note that you do not want
the tab to ground out on those spring clip thingies holding the bulb in.
#3. You will now have to remove that big black cup that protects the wiring
on the back of the light. After all this you should have about 1/2"
clearance between the bulb and the "magic snail of power". Go find a
piece of high density rubber about 1/8" thick and "affix" to the back
of the light in case there is contact. This rubber will help not
shorting out the + connection you just spent so much time creating.
I have't had any problems since I did this mod so I highly recommend it.
Anymore ?'s just email me and I will help you out.
