Before modications

Above you see what she looked like with just the added F&S spots added.  Kinda bland and everyday like.  I especially do not like the cheap looking toggle.  That is a different easy futher project.

Below is what she looks like after the modification.  I used the spots from the J&P Cycles catalog and went to my neighborhood Honda dealership for the headlight.  The Honda headlight was almost a perfect fit, but I had to purchase the rubber boot behind it and use some two-way tape on top of the lens to close the gap between it and the inner top part of the housing itself.  I would think if I did not do this, I would have wound up with a collections of bugs from around the west coast.  Never did like the idea of having birds sitting on my fender picking my light clean.
