Why Should I Install Aftermarket Headlights?
There are plenty of reasons you should consider replacing your old headlamps with LED headlights or other lighting upgrades. Most OEM headlights are typically far less bright than many modern headlights, and they usually wear out much faster than the newer technologies. Aftermarket headlights are also often far more stylish, colorful, and downright cool than those old halogen headlights.
The modern technology used in auto lighting can be complicated to understand, so it's worth knowing your way around. If you're looking for a replacement or an upgrade, we've got a quick and easy reference guide to help you pick the right headlights for your ride. We'll start with the headlight you'll likely be replacing, the outdated standard known as halogen headlights.
Halogen Headlights
When you turn on 90% of car lights on the road today, you'll find a halogen bulb. Halogen lights use a bulb with a tungsten filament and a small amount of halogen gas. They're only rated for an average of 800 hours of use, they are very sensitive, and not very durable. They are also energy mongers, so definitely not a good eco-friendly choice.
AdvantagesHalogen headlights are inexpensive, lightweight, dimmable, widely available, and easy to replace.
LED Headlights
LED lighting works by passing a current through a semiconductor as opposed to halogens that use combustion and a filament. LEDs are much more powerful than the halogen lamps and last a whole lot longer. Some manufacturers guarantee a duration of 20,000 + hours! If you're looking for a blend of affordability, style, and function, LEDs are a great place to start.
AdvantagesThey can design LED bulbs to fit tight spaces, which means sleeker headlight profiles and greater versatility. Aftermarket LED headlights also have these advantages:
- Increased brightness
- Easy installation
- Safer driving at night and during foul weather
- Energy efficient (about 90% more than halogen headlights)
- They look cool!
XENON/HID Headlights
Xenon is a gas that is used in HID (high-intensity discharge) lights. These headlights typically don't work in a standard headlight connector. HID lights deliver up to 90% better light emission than halogen bulbs, allowing you to better see the road ahead.
AdvantagesHID headlights release light in a bluish-white shade that illuminates over longer distances. These headlights are an excellent choice for nighttime, poor weather, or off-road driving.
Laser Headlights
Laser headlamps are a recent advancement in automotive lighting. Through the process of chemiluminescence, these headlights produce light by triggering a chemical process when laser beams are fired into a chamber.
AdvantagesLaser headlights can generate 1,000x the amount of light for half the power generated by LEDs, and they can be much smaller light assemblies.
