Hello Friends,

After reading so many amazing posts here, I am on the mission to upgrade my G5 Deluxe (2013) headlights.

I have just ordered an outer ring from ebay:

I am planning to order headlight either from SummitRacing:

or Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Adjure-T70300-Trillient-Motorcycle-Headlight/dp/B006XG5EEM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1382991072&sr=8-2&keywords=tri-bar+headlight+7

Do i need something else? I read 'W' rings in other threads, are they required in the assembly if I purchase above 2 items?

[squire]

I just purchased the kit that has all necessary components. I think it originated in India as the light is of Indian manufacture. It's of very hight quality, better than the original which was already pitting after not even a year.

Thanks for the post squire.

But my question is do I need any other item apart from the 7" outer ring and 7" tri-bar headlight mentioned above?

[squire]

You will need the W clips.

[motomataya]

I might be wrong but I don't think that ring will connect to you base. You need the whole kit.

[squire]

With my kit I just received the ring, headlight, and W clips.....works and looks like a charm. The headlight is a Minda. Not to say all the kits are the same though.

On my 2011, there were two rings required to change the headlight to a 7 inch size.

One ring locates the actual headlight and is shaped so the W clips will hold the glass into the ring.
The other ring attaches to the casquette and locates with the first ring and holds it in place.

The link below shows the two rings and the W clips that are sold by Nfieldgear

[squire]

Whoops, I just went out and looked and it's the same as Arizoni says. Doh!!!

I personally like the tripod lights without the built in car directional you showed, which I think takes a percentage of light away. Mine is all reflector but does have a pilot light I elect to run in daylight, & save my expensive bulb for dark. I cut my original backup rings guts out, & used a Chinese "CJ" Peaked Headlight ring. it was tricky, but check out my results. Many are not capable of doing this. You may need the inner outer kit.  but I'd hold out for the "diamond cut Tripod reflector" like mine.  See Pic

Awesome Craig! That is my goal too..

Can you send me a link from where you bought the tri-bar diamond cut light?

[Craig McClure]

Found it on EBAY for under $30. Type in "Tripod Headlight, 7inch" OR "7 inch DIAMOND CUT TRIPOD REFLECTOR" & search Ebay & Amazon etc.

GOOD LUCK!

Thanks Craig.. was the installation easy? (electrical part)

[Craig McClure]

It could have been easy if I used the whole kit including kit reflector. BUT, I wanted the Tripod (I had the 2 ring kit with clips) Then I found the 7" peaked Chinese CJ outer ring (on Ebay). First thing I noticed was MY reflector was thicker/deeper than the kit base ring would permit. Then I noticed the stock base ring was a good bit deeper, but had lots of tabs for the DOT headlight & its adjustments. SO I cut those out with my Dremel Tool. I then fitted the CJ ring to the base ring, off the bike. I think I had to drill a hole at the top of the CJ ring & base ring & for a chrome locating screw & nut. I had to do a good bit of expert tweeking. I also removed the jumper wiring Pigtail inside the headlight Nacelle in order to be able to turn my lights off & on at MY discretion while I was in there & wired the pilot light & my bar end Signals.   
  All told I think it turned out perfectly. But for the NOVICE it may be to much of a challenge.  I am an elderly guy who's been building a long time & had the confidence, I aslo did have the kit to fall back on. I was then able to recoup my investment, selling ALL left over parts on EBAY.  I preferred the clean line of the CJ peaked ring to the Eyebrow add on peak. See side view pic below.  Go for it if you think you can do it. That's how I learned.   Cheers!

This combo worked perfectly for me:
I bought this ring set which is inner and outer.  The quality was better than OEM bearing in mind they're just stamped and chromed sheet metal.

And one of these Hella bulbs. It was very bright on low and high, though any H-4 bulb will do.

Awesome replies. Thanks all. Just ordered INNER-OUTER RIM and W clips from Enfield County-ebay.

Will order tribar headlight from Amazon as soon as I get the items from India!
