Hello,
I am going to need some headlights on my '65 to clear snow in the winter. Has anyone installed LED lights instead of the original. Seems to me it may be brighter with a lot less load on the electrical system...

If so, please post pictures of what they look like.

Thanks

Gregg

I wouldn't bother. My friend put them one of his 430s. When you stand in front of the tractor they are blinding to look at. When you drive the tractor you don't see any better than when sitting on his other 430 with factory lights. I don't think the LEDs focus right to help on a garden tractor. My opinion. Roger

Another note since you mentioned winter and snow. The LEDs do not burn warm meaning snow will not melt off the lense.
Aaron Stoffa did a similar thread last year with the rf electrical capabilities and it would be a good page to read.
