3TJ HEADLIGHT BULBS

Post by Hogdigerdy Dog » Mon Feb 04, 2013 5:59 pm

standard original yamaha bulbs (12v 55/40w halogen x2) were about £26 from fowlers awhile ago,
i contacted them today about the current price and this is what they said (fook me over) :o

so i tried the bay and found these (below), there for the MZ scorpion 660 which uses the yam XT660 mill amongst other yam parts, so i gave em a ring (difficult to be 100% sure from pic can't see the lug spacings) and they are the same item £8.94 each so only £20.28 for both ordered over the phone (£2 p&p each on the bay) but discount over the phone for p&p

there are several other listings on the bay the nearest price is £18.99 + £1.00 p&p which is still cheaper than fowlers old price, (but the main problem used to be availability) won't even go into fowlers current price, wtf

perhaps i should have asked for 4dx bulbs from fowlers as they were UK market, still would have been pricey though

I knew they were a bit pricey !!!

They used to be about £17 from M+P so the Skorpian ones are a bit of a find. I've got a bulb out on dip on my project ... but I found a pair in a headlight loom on ebay a while back for 99p :grin:
