There are several golf cart parts replacement sites, as well as amazon. Try a search for your year and model. Now as for your specific question, from what I have seen, these do not have plugs, and use some type of connector to splice in to the wiring. I would be glad to give you a hand with the wiring. I have all of the equipment to provide a water tight connection.

Thanks for your offer, I’ll do some research on the parts.

I had them changed out by The Villages Golf Cart repair.

When buying LED head lights be aware of the number of LEDs in the light. Cant count how many people complain about the new LED lights they had installed and they don't think they perform the way they thought they would. You will find LED lights that have 3 LEDs, 4 LEDs, 5 LEDs and even 6 LEDs. If your shopping price, youll be getting less LEDs and obviously less light produced, just be aware. You do get what you pay for.

Consider high/low beam. Mine were capable of both. I first wired only with high because it was simpler. Could not adjust the angle low enough and lit up whole neighborhood. Then wired for both but best control I could think of without buying a new stalk or placing a switch in an inconvenient spot was high beam when stalk light/turn switch is in parking light mode and low beam when switch is in head light mode. Backwards to we are use to in our cars. Still trying to reeducate myself.

We had Todd Casey come to our house and put LED headlights in our Yamaha. He does good work and the headlights make a huge difference. The old lights drew so much power they would dim when I let up on the gas and the light control switch would heat up when the lights were on. He also replaced our drive belt with a better quality belt and the cart accelerates much smoother.

What was the cost? Was it Todd that did the work, or his other worker?

Both Todd and his worker showed up. They also did annual maintanence work on both of our carts. I don't remember specifically what the LED headlights were, but my guess is $150?
