I had no lights, harness or switch. Thanks to HF and ATV LED spotlights I found a solution. If you are a purist/restorer read no further.

ATV spot lights worked in the space. Pulling the hood off made life easier.

Wiring harness is way too big, so if you have wiring-don’t bother.

I like the results and it is probably better than OEM.

I'm more the purist and restorer, yet those silly Stanley P15D25 bulbs are so wimpy to cast any reliable light, even when the machines were new.

Doing a slew of research, mostly on Honda ATVs and on the snowmobile forums using the same headlamps in the 70s and 80s, I found a super really nice halogen replacement.

These are about 4X brighter over the original, and a tad less than the LEDs you put on.

low beam HM202, just over 300ft distance and illuminating reflective items over 500ft away beyond the road.

HM202, high beam, well beyond 550ft of the entire driveway.

This is the link to the H-F LED Flood lights if anyone wants to upgrade.

And if the LEDs flicker or behave weird or not light up, then look at this first before returning,

Another reason I went with my direction. Overspray on the inside of the lenses.

I'm sure that's the way I'm going on the ford. I have lights that just barley fit but are just to close to my FEL. frame for me. I'm going to make a bracket and add lights like your replacements. Been looking at Grill options.
I use the old style lights In my Yanmar 2000. No complaints there.
I had to replace one of the 4155 light bulbs. 5.49$ Big money were sayin!!! They both still work. Looking at the Inv. 1/28/2009. Fredricks. I ever need them. Already have a R. Serv. light so I'll be looking hard at H.frieght for both setups next time I'm in there!

Once the canopy on the ROPS is done, I'll add on those H-F LED spots. The YM2610 then would have a Deere look to it.
Those are LED spots, do looking long distance out is not effective, yet all around the tractor really near would be totally lit.

One downside I have with LEDs, when they go out, it's so costly to relace with another new one again. A halogen bulb is under $3.

Yup!! HF. El cheapo it will be.
Only have to install 1 and if or when it does go out in the garbage can. Should be a Perfect fit and super easy to make a mounting bracket and install it ;)

I installed a 24 inch bar on my Mahindra on the ROPS (dont put on the upside and have to move like I did) for 25 from A + a trailer plug which also runs my sprayer.
I think the Yanmar has almost as good light But no ROPS to mount.
