Does anyone know how to replace the bulb in the HD Bullet headlight? I cannot find my instructions and before I go screwing it up I thought I would ask here first.

 

It's somewhat of a pain in a

&nbsp\\;

1/16-inch allen wrench, remove outer

set screw at bottom of headlamp shell.
&nbsp\\;
Remove the tiny chrome trim ring that is against the edges of the headlamp glass
&nbsp\\;
Then there is another trim ring that is to be turned counter clockwise to release and there should be an oring behind it
&nbsp\\;
Then pull out the sealed beam unit
&nbsp\\;
Now its just as simple as twisting the bulb out, replaceing it and putting it all back together the way you found it

 

&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbs p\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\ \; When I purchased the 5 3/4 bullet headlight. They include a black bracket.....That is used for the removal process.....somehow

 

&nbsp\\;
I took the outer (most forward) set screw&nbsp\\;completely out and the front trim ring still does not come off.
&nbsp\\;
Why did they have to make it suck a pain in the **** to change the bulb???

 

If youve got the tool it is for turning the second ring counter clockwise after you get the little chrome ring off. H-D literally suggests using packing tape to stick onto the outermost chrome ring to pull it out *LOL

 

I got the three prong tool. So I gues mine is just being a pain. Time to go at it again. Thanks for the info.

 

Ah, the outside chrome ring is screwed on also. I thought it was just a set screw holding it in. Once I got that it came off with just a few problems. That inner ring would get real tight and didn't seem to want to come out. LOL

 

Dose anyone know where to get the three prong tool from??

 

The 3-prong tool is included with the bullet headlight . You can borrow mine if your located in southern Nevada .

 

No I'm in Florida but I appreciate it! Looks like I'll have to make it..
