    H4 adapter for Honda.

    Apparently there's a gizmo for adapting the rest of the World H4's to Honda H4's.
    I've been bending the tabs back so get them in. Currently using Hella plus 90% but I suspect not having a perfect fit is causing the damage. They are excellant bulbs by the way but are only lasting 8 to 10,000k

    My bike has the adaptor rings fitted - on previous Hondas I used to cut the bottom two tabs off, or bend them over a thin nail. Never had any problems with doing that, but the rings are more betterer.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Put an H4 HID in it, and never replace a bulb again.

    Yup, those are the beasts. As it says in the ad, you clip off the lower tabs, slip these on, and they're 'good to go'.
    ... and that's what I think.
