There is also this expensive option:

Trying to find if anyone on here has fitted them
 
 
The LED do look amazing but £600 WOW. Ive only had the bike 5 weeks so I hope Triumph will fix it. I dont usually ride at night so I am planning on adding some daytime running lights but its nice to know there are lots of options out there.
 
It doesn't have to cost a fortune for a good upgrade to LED Chinese sourced. I bought two for $116 Australian (US$84.70) each shipped free to Australia. Now just US $78.32 each.

If you don't ride at night they are really not worth it. But lights are really my passion.

In the UK - these are MAYBE an option for you 5 & 3/4 - 299 a pair. Fitting might require some jiggling about.

High.Low - DRL and Indicator function.

Isn't that £229 a pair? They appear identical to mine from China for £120 a pair which is hardly surprising for a UK distributor vs Free postage from Hong Kong.

True - but from the UK there will be a legally obliged more extensive warranty. And if they don't honour it - you know where they live. Plus if the UK is anything like Spain - you'd get hit with 20% VAT and Import duties too.

I don't know exactly what the UK is (I've lived outside the UK for over 26 years now) - but if I buy (for example) from a Spanish based trader - even if he is Chinese (increasingly likely) I get 2 years warranty - by law.
I find now that it's often cheaper to pay more buying locally.
 
I contacted triumph today as they had not got back to me and they said that it has been accepted as a warranty issue and they are going to replace the headlamp.
So I'm happy about that, I would like to thank you all for your input because it is been very helpful and I've learned a few things on the way.
Many thanks
Mark.
