Headlight Replacement

nuvz · Apr 14, 2002

I had a headlight bulb burn out on my 2010D. When I took it out, I found it to be a rare breed. It is an oblong bulb with a notched flange... 25/35/watt. Like nothing readily available. I took it out to the John Deer dealer & he tried, but failed. My question is this, Has anyone converted their headlights to halogens? At least the bulbs are available!

I've heard that a Yamaha(?) motorcycle has a bulb that will replace yours. Check your local motorcycle dealer.

I've also bought them at Massey Ferguson dealers.

Went to Yahoo to find the Yamaha part number took 40 mins (arrggh). Anyway, here is what was posted sometime back for a replacement bulb for a YM2000. May fit a 2010. Yamnar parts dealers may have the exact bulb in stock as well.
Yamaha part # 21V-84314-00-XX

Why not just try one of the dealers on this board? They always have them in stock. There is more than one . Different models use different bulbs. All the other bother isn't really needed.

Man was that a noble deed. Most of the time it takes so long to get in that I just forget about it. The internet hasn't bread patience in me.

I replaced my headlights with halogon driving lights (Blazer brand) They fit almost perfectly with no modifications. I kept the OEM lights, and can easily put them back to original if I want. The halogens are a lot brighter, and I am very pleased. They were about $18, probably cheaper than one bulb.

Thank you for your info!! I got my bulb at the local Yamaha Dealer, & even though your number wasn't the correct one, He dug one out that was in the bin right next to the number you gave and it was just right. Cost a whole $3.17. The correct number was 102843140XX. Thanks Again!!
