maybe it's me... I don't understand but when I opened the headlight I didn't see any plug that fits the bulb they sell on here and in other stores...

my headlight has simple wires connected to a white plug... how am I supposed to fit a LED bulb then?

The plug (actually, it's a socket) is that white thing that has a white and two blue wires attached. Remove it from the existing bulb and fit it to the 3-pin plug on your new LED one.

Whether your new LED bulb will physically fit in the headlight shell might be another issue. Then there will be the extra heat that it produces might cause problems too.
 
Seem to much work rewiring. I found some PPIA bulbs that fit perfectly the existing system. Thanks!
 
Oooh wait. I think I understand now! I feel silly but you mean the white socket connected to the bulb... i didn’t imagine it would fit... most youtube videos show a different plug for the black terminal! Ha! Ill try tomorrow

Don't feel silly, I asked the exact same question for the bulb on my V7 III. :)
 
ok i tried install it. it was too long. so yes it does fit wattage, holes and sockets... too bad it was too long and it touches the back of the lamp enclosure... so i opted for a PPIA bulb... much easier...
