I'm running FX-style headlights on my SR these days, and I switched from stock to LED recently.

These work well, but I had to cut the rubber seals so the woven heat sinks would have some place to go, and find a weatherproof place for the little interface boxes.

I'd add pictures, but (a) they aren't handy and (b) my mounting is not really applicable to others.

Of course they're applicable!  Certainly to X platform, but I was looking at doing that, too.

How does the light cast work?  I'm not a fan of the S-platform Cityfighter wrinkly throw pattern.

Same.here - i used stronh water resistant duct tape to enlarge the black rubber case. Works fine.

Also i only replaced one light out of two to keep a legal light for the crossing light, and a stronger light only for the full light position
