Sadly, cancer took Ted Norris STOC 658, from us in May of 2013.

Last I heard his son was riding his beautiful sidecar rig.

That's one of the problems in getting old: your friends do, too.


See you in Fortuna.

Ok the swap was successful. I was able to reach the bulbs, it was simple, thanks to the help given above :-D

1) Remove seat, reach the tool pouch, pull the two tabs inward and fold the back plastic panel forward, exposing the 4 bulb holders







After installing, I can definitely see that the lights are brighter. In the video below, 3 bulbs are LED and the left turn light is still a halogen bulb, for comparison.

Hope the pics & video helps whoever comes along next on this path.
