Can you modify or do you need to modify a 1997to work with Truck lite spots. Is the connector plug and play like on a 2010 thru 2013.? Do you need an adapter? is anything else needed thanks. Lite in question is a
Truck-lite 80275



Thanks

Not sure if your year is plug and play.

My 2004 was not as It was a Cop bike and they did their own thing in there, so I simply dug up a set of appropriate connectors and soldered them on the wires.So easy even this caveman did it.

At any rate it is a super simple thing to make work and you will love the lights. Make sure to aim them good.

I go to a dark road with the main beam trim ring removed to make adjustments easy, 2 thick rags or towels to block the lights I am not adjusting. Sit on bike and figure out where you want the pattern to be, on the spots I forgo the hassle of proper adjustment procedures and just give the light a tweak to where I want it to be, has worked for over 30 years doing it this way.

Adjust one at a time then go for a ride and see if your lights are where you want them to be, if not adjust again.

Adjustment makes a huge difference for certain. In my case there was a pretty big difference on the main beam between the Bosch halogen and the trucklite.
