Truck has a good suggestion: And he's right, they are a great little tractor. When the motor finally got tired on ours, I repowered it with a Briggs Vangard V-twin, 18hp. If anyone is interested, email me. I have a writeup which can be emailed back describing the project. As far as your question, the answer depends on what you're willing and able to do. For example, you can probably replace the wiring pretty cheap, if you want to do so. There isn't that much of it. If you're willing to do a little fabrication, you can replace the headlights, and mount with something of your own design. Example, use some halogen fog lights from a automobile accessory kit. (Yes, I know the purists are shuddering right now!) But it's your tractor, and you're the one who gets to use it. Deere's lighting up front was rather puny anyway.
