Simple questions that I can't find any answers for: What are the headlight bulbs used in the Q6 150cc Trike? I can't even find anything that mentions the base they use. (IE: P15D, HM6, etc.) How do you replace them? Lots of videos showing almost every other model, but none that are even close to the Q6 fairing designs. (The Chinese manual that comes with them is a joke as is the total lack of instructions for assembling them when you first take them out of the crate.)
I just replaced both of the headlights in my 49cc Tao Tao Limited Edition with LED bulbs. They now produce an amazing amount of light that actually makes them usable for seeing at night and not just as "marker lights" for other drivers to see me better. Now, I need a pair for my Q6 150cc trike. Its standard headlights are better than the OEM on the Tao Tao, but not by much. (and it goes faster, which requires better lighting of the road ahead.) A pair of LEDs would make a world of difference there as well. Hitting a bump at almost 50MPH with insufficient warning to miss, or even brace for it is not fun. Doesn't take much at those speeds for a trike to go airborne!
2 problems: Problem1: I can't find any place that lists the headlights by base type. so that I can order some LEDs for it. (I've seen several different headlight bulb base types used on Chinese scooters and there is a time lag when ordering online, so I need to order the correct ones the first time!) 2. How do you open the fairing to replace them? The Q6 has very fancy wrap around fairings and hidden screws/clips, so rather than risking destroying plastic fairings, I am hoping someone knows what to remove from where to do the job right. (If I could open the fairing, I could pull the old bulbs out and solve problem 1 myself.)
TIA

Did you ever find out how to remove the plastic fairing? I also need to check headlights and check some other wiring. Just put my wife's scooter together last week and now the head and tail lights stopped working.

thinking it's the typical crap bulb that i cannot think to name but can be replaced with h4 as the base used in the crap bulbs also gets replaced, but probably need to buy the connector too as they do not match but easy and cheap. most direct bulb only leds are also junk
