Cheers John - I actually picked that same one myself after you messaged me !!  :)
The reason is that my original lens has a huge crack so looking at upgrading  :)

I call it "burnished titanium" and nothing that a bit of meguiars metal polish cant fix.

Hey Eric is that a complete changeover or an insert style. How many $?
Have you got any item numbers etc.
Had a quick look on the Stedi site.
Rode my 14 in the dark last week and I definitely need more light.
Many thanks

I posted on here some details of what i did.  Stedi 7" led is around 160 aud. Its a perfect fit for the original housing and even matches the suzuki std eiring plug.

Imho its one of the easiest and best mods to do. Looks  retro and gives awesome light.

I matched it with waterfall led indicators.  Pretty happy with the result.

Eric - Try Belgom Alu, applied with a rough cloth then finish with Meguairs - you may find it a bit quicker to get a sparkling finish  :cool:

Plug and play, the connector on the stedi unit is the same as the Suzuki factory.
