So I’ve searched and searched and searched. I have yet to find a conclusive answer. Has anyone had ANY luck getting an LED headlight bulb for a 2000 Rancher FE? I’m at my wits end, can’t find anything at all lol

neither, a headlight, or a spot, LED is not the best choice at night. this is just my personal opinion, and i have done some research. something in the yellowish to white spectrum, will allow more in the visible spectrum. dont take my word for it, do what you will..
on the side, leds, attract more bugs.. keep your mouth closed

Roger that, I’m honestly just looking for replacement bulbs that are brighter. The ones I have are rather dim in the woods.

Even if someone made an awesome LED bulb to fit, you wouldn't want it. LED's get their benefit from being so low in power consumption that you can use dozens of elements together for overal more light output. A stock replacement bulb simply doesn't have the surface area to give more output with LED elements in their place. Plus the housing was not designed to work with them.

There is a reason that people that want more light output on their ATV's install light bars. I put a cheapie double row 12" combo light bar on my Rancher, and it's awesome.

EBay. Founds lots on there and God prices.
Except that none of the ebay LED bulbs fit. Don't waste your money on them; no matter what the listing says, there is no one who makes a direct fit led bulb.
