Default Electric headlights 73

Hi wondering if anyone has done a electric headlight conversion, and what they think of it, i was thinking about the ECPB HDL-368, it states there are no modifications needed (?)

That looks like a quality unit. I would have considered it when I converted my 75. I bought the one from Detroit Speed and am quite pleased.

I installed one of Richard454’s kits. Top quality kit, easy to install, well engineered.

Check out Richard454's kit. Better engineered, the best I've seen (also pricewise) IMO.
