Default New Headlights - 129

Aluminum sheet from McMaster-Carr.
Rubber headlight rings from eBay.
LEDs from Amazon.



Now... help out the electrically ignorant owner and tell me the best way to wire them using a pull-switch.

Thanks!

Which lights did you use? I purchased a set on Amazon, but they are too much of a flood light. I'd like to get something a little more directional.

PAR36 LED Xenon White flood from Amazon. They sell a spot as well. The price was grossly high but, since it is likely to be a one-time, I bit the bullet. I'll try and remember to take a pic of the patternt tonight, but no promises since drinking games have already begun.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
