No, there are NO LED bulbs for the HEADLIGHTS you can convert to HD bulbs but that is a lot of re-wiring you have to do. If you scoot has small running lights next to the HEADLIGHTS THOSE you can change to LEDS as well as the rear lights .

Okay Thanks alleyoop, for the good info I dont think I want to do any rewiring right now.

Your right HD bulbs instead of led's, are these something a person can buy at the local automotive store, or do you have to order from a dealer or website?

I believe there will be led lamps that are designed for headlights on motor vehicles in the near future. Right now they are selling led landing lights that are approved by the FAA for small aircraft. Aircraft do have a different need for lights though, some side to side illumination and a lot of up and down for coming in at different angles. For a 50cc I would not hesitate to at least add a high power led headlight. Their lights are so poor to start with, along with the slower speeds and they are not licensed so a lot of rules do not apply.

Kalee... That wind shield is a Universal Slip 40 and you can get it any place. I got mine at partsforscooters.com

mike6736, Did the universal 40 make your windshield to tall ? the universal 30 measures 15" wide X 16"tall, I need to sit on the trike an do some measuring.

Kalee,

I tried led's on one of my scooters but they were not bright enough. Instead I got a pair of these for my PST-150-H, (same trike as Alley). They have been working fine. A bit brighter than the standard 35/35w bulb.



As for the rattle on your PST-150-11 trike, I worked on a 2009 model that had the same rattle as you have. I had some of the self adhesive pads I got at a Home Depot. Took a little while to find all the rattle points but I was able to quiet the seat.

Thanks jeffdeq, for the info on the self adhesive pads I used a piece of foam tubing like you would use in a swiming pool and so far its working but will keep your idea in mind also.The bulbs your showing here on this forum are they headlamps or tail lights? I have not taken any of my bulbs out yet not sure how to take out the rear ones, my trike is a 2012 Ice bear 150-11. I'm thinking I can remove the front cowel and get to the bulbs in front, maybe rapidjim can tell me how to get the rear ones out.

Also jeffdeq, where did you get your bulbs from?

I bought these

www.ebay.com/itm/Front-Head-Light-Bulb-12v-18-18w-ATV-Go-Kart-Scooter-Moped-BA20D-Halogen-10pcs-/261152201766?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3ccde25c26&vxp=mtr#ht_1057wt_934

It took about a week and a half to come in. They are headlight bulbs with a BA20D base. I think your bike might use these bulbs



If so, I replaced these bulbs with the halogen bulbs.

That is a standard order shield = Universal slip 40 I think from partsforscooter.com

I think it was Lee in Ar that used the LEDs and I also think he put in HD1s...

mike6736, Did you take your factory windshield off then put the new add on windshield on?

[mike6736]

Mine is a Magnum 300cc, the universal slips attach to the handle bars and the factory shield stays on. When I sit on the trike the shield is just over my head. I lost 5-10 mph on the top end but I like it...
