So, the question of the hour... Has anyone gotten up the courage to crack open the headlight assembly and do a proper retrofit?
So I really want to go with these...and I just viewed the service manual about how to replace the headlight assembly. LOL! Um...apparently we gotta remove all the doggone fairings? The lower ones, the inner lower, the mid/side covers, and upper fairings, all the while disconnecting the fuse box.Currently it's just regular and green!![]()
TaiMc. You don't NEED NO STINKING manual. And leave them fairings on. Borrow somebody's sawzaw and grinder and knock out them front clear lenses. Save what's left though soz you can glue 'em back in after you change those fancy lights. Easy peezy and Good as knew. :nerd:Um...apparently we gotta remove all the doggone fairings?

Well i dropped mine awhile back and need to replace the headlight and a bunch of the front fairings so.... haha, unless i pay a shop to do it. Id assume they would charge me for atleast 4 or 5 hours of labor at the very least if they would even touch it.So I really want to go with these...and I just viewed the service manual about how to replace the headlight assembly.

I don't have a ninja 400 but the ninja 400 and the zx6r headlight assemble are the same at least for these custom lights. I ended up buying these and although they look really good there is a lot that is crap too. I mainly bought these as I didn't feel the new led headlights on my 2019 zx6r where very bright and these claimed to be 250% brighter. There're actually about as bright as stock maybe slightly brighter but definitely not 250% brighter as I couldn't really tell any difference over stock brightness. The main problem is the high beams are completely useless, they shine WAY too high. Literally they will light up the top of 50 to 60 foot tree's, no where near touching the road. They also lose the ability to be adjusted so the problem can't be fixed. When I told them about the problem they basically said "Well the low beams stay on while the high beams are on so you still get the low beams so there is no problem" then after arguing back and forth over a few emails they said they would give me a full refund but said I needed to ship it to an address in China! The item was shipped to me from CA but they want me to spend my own money to ship it back to China. Did a few quotes from the size of the box and where it needs to be shipped it's basically going to cost the entire price of the headlight just for shipping so i'm stuck with these.Anyone ever get these? I want a set lol
