Converting 79 Honda XL185 to LED headlight?

I have a 1979 Honda XL185s with a new 6v battery. I don't have any plans to change to a 12v system. I've read around that converting to an LED headlight helps out the weak 6v system a lot. My headlight as it is currently is very weak and essentially useless at night. So how do I go about converting the headlight to LED? What steps are involved? What type of LEDs? Any info or suggestions would be great.

I would imagine a small 6-12 volt inverter or rectifier would do the trick

  • Badly scratched headlight light on a 2010 Honda Pilot EX? So I'm a son who loved cars but I kinda messed up on my mom headlight while cleaning it. It is a All-Wheel-Drive 3.5 liter 6 cylinder 2010 Honda Pilot EX and it had millions of tiny scratches all over both front headlight lens. I had a auto towel and headlight cleaning and clean it with no soft cloth so it kinda made many scratches after a while it was clean. Can you guys help me to repair this damage? What product best fit this category to help repair this?

  • Fog light stopped working after installed LED light? Hi, I have a 2013 Honda Fit and recently installed the led headlight on my car, but my fog light stopped working. Anyone know why and how to fix it? I'm assuming the fog light and headlight are in the same circuit so once I installed the led the voltage changed?
  • Will installing LED lights on my NEW 2015 Honda Civic void the warranty? Ok so, about 2 weeks ago I picked up a BRAND NEW '15 Civic from my local dealer, and some bulbs on my car are LED others are not. I was wondering that if I switched all my lights to LED if that would void the warranty/extended warranty? Being that the lights are "aftermarket". And also, can I use regular LED bulbs or do they have to be "CANBUS Compatible?" LED bulbs
