Head lights

May sound like a daft question, but what are the size requirments for front head lights, ive seen some 4 inch head lights but would these be ok as most ppl have 5 and 3 quaters?

4" are motorbike lights and aren't guaranteed to pass SVA as they dip straight. Though Russbost has a mod that may let them pass assuming the tester doesn't require the correct arrow mark for left dip.

Do a search it's been talked to death.

there is a small nodule on the bottom of the lens which keeps the lens and dip pattern straight and flat. This little nodule needs to be gotton rid of, i used a dremmel, and then the lens can be rotated by around 3-4 degrees so that the beam points to the left. Done
