Congrats I was watching that auction to see if you were going to get it.

Great score man! Ok.... now send it to that guy in Aussie land and make copies! hahhaha...

I just got another complete NOS 350X headlight.... and got 2 more coming soon! The one I got last week had a ¼" crack in the plastic.... but figure I'll keep it for parts. (included the bulbs and pigtail connectors! )

[twgranger]

how much did i go for?
$103 and then he charged me 15 for shipping :eek: That seems alittle high to me but oh well.

you finally got one I was watching to see who got it,its about time!

[twgranger]

I recived my new headlight in the mail today and this one is alittle different? My old one has the vents on the bottom and my new one is solid? Anybody else's like that?

[OldSchoolin86]

I've had a couple and they both had a vented "look" but had a solid backgroung.

I've had a couple and they both had a vented "look" but had a solid backgroung. My old one is vented with holes but not the new one. :wondering I tyhought that is how the air box gets air is in through the vents.

Looks real nice, try not to get it too too dirty. Ive been looking for one my my unit. Your right, they can get a little expensive...

maybe its an old maier??

[twgranger]

maybe its an old maier??The bag still had the yamaha sticker on it with the part#.

[LonesomeTriZ]

Do not trust what the bag says unless it was sealed. I sold a new set of Mair Tri-Z fenders and shiped it in the Yamaha bag my factory fender came in. The buyer was well aware it was not a Yamaha part. It fit in the bag perfect, that is whu I did it. So there could be a good chance it is not a Yamaha part.

[Orangecnty250r]

I dont beleive the solid is maier
All three of my red /black tri Z headlights have the solid backround

My 85 black is vented

The New NOS yellow one I sold on ebay was unpainted unvented and in the package

A new yellow one I found Recently at a yamaha dealer in the package was not vented and the bottom factory painted black.

I dont know what the scoop is but they definetly came
vented /unvented
painted /unpainted

From Yamaha I do know the vented ones get an unsightly wave to them.

[twgranger]

I know it's not maier. The quality is to good.

twgranger, the one I bought a few months ago was not vented either
