Headlight out

Gentlemen,

Since my '96 Sprint got rear ended in the parking lot (dumb driver) My front left headlight was cracked. It still worked, so I didn't worry ... until it finally went out. I'd like to get some info on replacing it - is it easy to do myself? I probably have to take the fairing off. Also, Bikebandit.com lists two headlights ... one for $92 and the other for $80. How do I identify the one I have? I'd like them to match. I should probably replace the bulbs while I'm at it as well ... go with stock or get something brighter?

Thanks for the info!

I decided to get the new reflector and bulbs. The used one on the flea bay looks way more scuffed up than the rest of my bike Do any of you gentlemen know the Triumph part number?

Thanks!

Hi,

For your bike I believe that the lefthand Haedlamp unit is part number T2700172, the righthand is T2700167.

As far as I know the convention of lefthand is when sat on the bike and not looking at it from the front.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
Steve
