LED lights for Vaquero

Hey all, probably already a beaten path, but I just installed a 7" LED light from eagle lights to my 2012 vaquero, and it looks awesome. the light is super bright, equal to the daymaker, and was really easy to install. took longer to fit the light in the mounting bracket (that it comes with) than it was to install to the bike. and probably half the cost!!!! the search on the eagle lights website has exact fit for the vaquero, actually, its the only light they have thats exact fit lol, the other products are universal fit. anywho, light looks really good and I strongly recommend anyone who wanting to upgrade their stock headlight to LED to check em out. super happy.

Sweet, I was just looking at these.

Quick Question: Do you need the original bracket, too? Asking because mine is cracked and want to know if I need to replace it.

Buy the new headlight and adapter, remove entire existing headlight and original bracket, and install new.

It is always a great decision to switch to LED lights. It is also much safer. LED headlights produce a brighter, whiter light. They tend to put out around 2,000-4,000 lumens. So, LED lights illuminate more area and show things in that area more clearly. For comparison, the high and low beams on a halogen bulb produce 1200 and 700 lumens, respectively. Therefore, the difference is considerable, and you feel it right away. I also like the led strip light for the backlights, however, it is not always possible to have them.
