Default All Eigers need aux lights on the bars!

After putting lights on mine, I can't believe I didn't do it a long time ago. Now I know why all those reviewers were saying that the Vinson had some of the best lighting available on a quad. It's great having light where you steer, and it looks good at night, too!

I also recommend a beefier skid plate on the front. Not having so many holes for mud to come through and fill up the front diff area is a bonus. Doesn't seem to have affected my cooling, either.

Do any of you guys have problems with you stock loghts vibrating and tippng down to the ground, they are tightened up all the way but still move up and down. my friends 04 does the same thing, I am gonna get an auxillary light.

We ride a lot at night and I usually use a strip of tape to posistion them where I want but it looks and is also dumb, then again its better to see than not to see.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Yeah, I've got an '05, the lights aren't any better. Pretty lame. Sounds like a worthwhile project! You did a nice job.

When I had my Eiger the light drooping problem was a major pain. I too added Aux lights to mine. To solve the problem of the drooping light I went to the hardware store and found some window sealing putty that was the same color as my Eiger, which was green. I just mashed some in under the lights after setting them at the proper level and pressed a popsicle stick on it to smooth it out. The lights never drooped again and you really had to look hard to tell the putty was there. Best part was that if the stuff ever came out (which it did'nt) I just kept a spare pack in the box, you do not even have to wait for the stuff to set, just poke it and go!

I now have a KingQuad and the handle bar Aux light is great, a light that moves with the handle bars is really nice.

Walmart has an atv lite that will mount on the back of the front rack and it just plugs into the power outlet. $40 ya got light!!

I've seen several different setups, those look awsome!! I like that they steer.

I mounted $20 auto zone lights above the stock candles, wired to a relay with the hi beams, they light the trail. I also have a backup light wired to the reverse. VERY HANDY!!
