P700 LED Headlights

[wataboy]

Was going to get started on these yesterday afternoon but couldn't come up with the instructions for the 700 models. (Special thanks to @lee for coming through) As it was I didn't get finished till way late.
Anyway, here's my official manstructions.

When removing the front grill make sure to remove the 2 screws that secure the top of the headlight buckets to the underside of the fender. Kinda hard to get to. And don't forget the wiring harness plug.

Instructions say to remove bumper, manstructions say it's not required.

The heft of the led's compared to the stockers is quite noticeable when you hold them.

When putting the black caps on the leds note the flat side & position the caps accordingly.

Here's the plug the relay goes into. Instructions say to remove left fender, manstructions say waste o' time.The switch wiring plug will also pass right through the band holder.

These are a great addition to the 700 but I'm still planning on adding a bar & cubes because more light makes right.

I heard that the front grill or hood or something is changed for 2017 (on the P700).
I have looked at pictures on line and I can't tell.
It's probably like the all 'new' Honda Civic that comes out every 4 years, I can't tell anything is different for about 12 years - then I see one and think 'well that dose look different from the 1997 Civic I had'.

Anyway, the 2017 P700 can accept the LED head lights now.
The older P700 needs to be modified.
I think @Hondasxs posted some 'Manstructions' for that.

Nice...
I'm impressed you did all this in the dark too. Good job.
See you followed the Honda instructions somewhat by removing the front grill.
I think the Honda instructions wants you to remove the dash and the muffler or something like that. lol. Way over kill.
Manstructions are much better. hahah..

@Tramguage1
All that needed to change was a little extra room on the cover.
And I just looked it up. It will set you back a whole $5.74...
Worth the gamble if the molding job you did is bothering you.
EDIT.. Front grill is different design. It will be required also.

Yes i have a 15 and just completed the conversion about a month ago. I had to stretch the buckets, and add the high/low switch and wiring.
Thats awesome that they fit easily.

Heck get me the part #s and ill order them. If there is enough room that would be a good place to put some small spots for rock lights

Darn!!!
Thought we may have had an easier way to convert the older 700s.

Anybody know if there's a way to change the thread title? I'd like to add '2017' to it for future searchers.

On both my honda cars you turn the light switch(on turn signal stalk) forward(ccw) to turn on the lights. Maybe it's just my ocd but it bothered me that the original switch was backward and now this hi/low is even worse!(sigh)

Anybody want the stock headlights, wiring harness and on/off switch? Only about 200 miles on them. Look brand new. First one to say they'll pay shipping gets them otherwise they're going in the trash.
