In some countries it is illegal to modify the car headlights … if they come halogen you let them halogen , if they xenon they are required to have washers for headlights and auto level.. for newer cars the led headlights are in segments so they don’t disturb other traffic participants … some of them are not road legal rated … its says in the box. : offroad use only! Before you start modifying your headlights consult your local laws to be safe
You did a great job describing the topic. I’m a Sealight guy myself. After I moved out to the country I was uncomfortable driving at night with the stock headlights on my old ‘14 Expedition. There are no public streetlights within 10 miles of my house and it’s a very hilly and winding highway to get to my private dirt road. I have an astigmatism and it’s hard enough for me to see at night anyway. I bought a set of X4’s because they were the brightest set they offered and are built with a collar that you can adjust to aim the LED’s in the perfect direction regardless of your setup. Once I installed them properly to perfectly replicate the filament of a halogen bulb they were amazing! They had the same exact beam pattern as my stock bulbs and both beams of my H13 bulbs worked great. Just bought another set for my new (to me) Excursion as well as all the bulbs needed for every light on the truck. I even sprung for the extra bright reverse lights because that’s really going to help out when I have to back out of my carport at night. Before I upgraded I was one of those people who would get upset at newer cars and their brighter headlights but after I upgraded I noticed that even the brightest (correctly aimed low beams) didn’t mess with my vision nearly as much. I always recommend people to upgrade to a quality LED bulb. Technically it’s not DOT legal but even the state inspectors where I live don’t care about the bulb type as long as it’s adjusted properly.
3:24 This doesn't get brought up enough on arguments online about LED headlights, I have a pair of the Halogen pattern LED's for my Low beams, and normal halogens for my hi-beams. Man it is wonderful when they're installed correctly esp on Reflector Headlamps, nobody on the road has flashed their lights at me after adjusting the height properly.
I have a set of Auxito LED’s in my Ford Crown Vic. They’ve been flawless for over two years and the pattern once adjusted is almost identical to the stock halogen bulbs in the reflector housing. High beams are insanely good on them. Honestly I was and still am blown away by how well they work and how reliable they’ve been.
I have bought cheap LED lights since 2014 for every vehicle I've ever owned. I have never had any issues ever. Auxito is actually not bad at all. I try and go for Auxito over other weird brands.
@@turtleman1947 they stand by their stuff, I’ve rarely had any problems and if I did, I sent them back and they would send me new bulbs free of charge. I hav them on family member vehicles, and to this day still held up over the two years that I started using them.
I got em in my Camry and love them. I went thru 3 other brands before I found these exceptional LEDs….and they aren’t expensive compared to other brands, but aren’t too cheap which is usually a red flag 19 times out of 20
Great explanation of how these newer hi-tech automotive headlight designs differ and why the proper application and design is so critical.Thank You for all your efforts!
I want to add something regarding replacing your lenses. If you’re going with a “stock” replacement, don’t buy from off brand on Amazon or EBay. I purchased reflector lenses off of Amazon for my ‘08 Corolla. They were exact replacements, nothing fancy. The beam pattern always seemed off, I blamed it on the LEDs. I decided to purchase OEM lenses from Toyota and it made a huge difference in the beam pattern. The bulbs were aimed a bit high, but I was able to adjust them. If you want to replace your old lenses with the exact same ones, I’d suggest going OEM or with a highly rated aftermarket one if you kind find it
When you're talking about replacing lenses do you mean the entire housing or just the transparent plastic part. Mines has been busted because a family member ran into a truck while on their phone (not too fast just the bumper cover and plastic lenes are busted)
Your video explains this heated touchy topic pretty well. People think you just plug and play and drive……Not at all. Numerous factors to consider, and most are trial and error and purchase to return. I went thru 3 brands and types before I found ones that are compatible with my vehicle, sit firm snug and tight, don’t blind other drivers, and last but not least, are aesthetically appealing…….unfortunately Most times the aftermarket projector retrofit is the best, sometimes only way to go. I got lucky I guess
Thank you! I love LEDs and I think upgrading older cars to LED headlights completely changes your driving experience at night. BUT... you have to do it or otherwise you're just wasting your time and money, and getting frustrated at the bulbs. So that's why i made this video, hoping to share some knowledge with people that want to make the switch but are afraid to because they don't know how to do it, or people that have tried and failed and can now try again successfully.
I've come across this because I've fitted LED's and one of them is great, the other is hardly providing a beam at all - and neither was the halogen - its not just poor light, its as if something is blocking it. This video shows me more about the internals (mine is projector type) and what you've said about bulb positioning makes sense - Even though it only appears to fit in one position. I'm off to experiment with that - thanks for an informative feature
Just checked my highs om my escape, they were put in by Ford about a year back. The bulbs were crooked, i checked cause you said high beams sometimes get installed wrong. Thank you.
This video covers 99% of my questions. Thank you! Especially the types of light, and the way led simulates the bulb lights. Would you discuss the types of light connectors for cars, cause there's a ton.
Something to consider is the colour rendering (CRI) of any aftermarket headlight. The point of headlights is primarily to be able to see in the dark after all, and while brightness and aim are important, if the headlights make certain colours “disappear”, you are still blind to those things. In this regard halogens are naturally superior, the incandescent lightbulb has a CRI of nearly 100. Also worthy of mention is that the CANBUS system on many vehicles will often not be happy with many LED replacements, especially if you are changing from incandescent. Some bulbs “fool” the CANBUS by having what’s essentially a resistor in parallel with the LED to mimic the current draw of the OEM light. Which is a bit silly since you are now effectively wasting the energy saving potential of LED bulbs 😂 Overall I think sticking to what the manufacturer specified and making sure the light assembly, lenses and wiring are in good condition is a better idea than to start messing around with aftermarket replacements.
Question ?? On most sites it gives you the wattage & how many lumens combined , so how do you know like for instance oh many lumens is the low beams compared to the high beams ??
The lumens are usually the same between those two especially on LED bulbs. The difference is the mounting area of the bulbs, and where the beam is pointing through the headlight housing.
Those little ones are rebrands as Auxito. CLR tested those called Auxito - 10S. They produce 16.5W per bulb after the observation. And they get warm up to 141 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is very good. The lower the temperature, the better the lifespan is. The higher the wattage and temperature, the shorter the lifespan is.
also, if possible, see if your budget allows for auto adjusting Xenon’s. In my opinion they’re better than LED’s and Halogens. They’re as bright as LED’s, if not brighter. But can move around on their own to adjust for vehicle height and body roll.
That's something that would work great on a vehicle that tows often, but even so in most cases it's hard if not impossible to add that feature if the vehicle doesn't already have it.
@@AutoFixYT I forget the brand i’ll have to look it up again, but there was one out there that made a universal kit that had a gyroscope type of thing in this little computer that would auto adjust the lights, only issue was that it costs almost 2k
I have never seen a side mount bulb before. Place it so the LEDs are perpendicular to the direction of the beam, and they are always supposed to be at 9 and 3 o'clock
Great..thanks for the information dude! Quick question,,do you have to change any fuses or something because of probably different power ratings of halogens and led?
Easy answer. Never put anything other than halogen in halogen lamps. The light refraction will never be right because leds do NOT emit light correctly. Halogen emits 360 degrees. Led emits horizontally. Whatever you see hitting the ground, they will emit the same upward into the face of other drivers.
LEDs can't perfectly mimic a halogen bulb. This is why it's ideal, not to use them in refractory style headlights. They can work in projection headlights, but it's a trial by error even with those.
This guy don’t understand that there are shit LEDs that do exactly what he is saying, and then there are good quality LEDs that contradict everything he has said. I don’t wanna hear the shit honestly….i promise you this: There’s no way anybody who watched or commented on this video tested every aftermarket LED bulb themselves and came up with the same negative conclusion on all of them.
question on your lexus bulbs, were they a straight up replacement? meaning I can just order a d2s bulb and swap out the HID bulb? or do I need to do something else? Thanks!
U can change from HID to LED if it’s specific design. Lasfit and Auxito makes for D2S HID for LED. They are brighter than a 35W and 55W HID. Because every single year we see more and more improvement that are better in the world of LED.
So projektor headlights are better to convert to led, then a reflektor headlight? Converted my headlights on my 04 forester with h4 , to led´s but lowbeam is bad, it has some blind spots and the light output seems weak, sure one of the headlights is clody but its going to be changed to a better one, also going back to halogen bulbs with osram nightbreaker
Yes it's better to convert projector, but that doesn't mean you can't convert reflector. Your weak beam is likely a combination of a wsak bulb as well as the haze on the headlight. The pattern comes mostly from the reflector, but can be negatively affected by a bad bulb or one that wasn't installed correctly
Nice video. My headlights are dieing out slowly, doesn't help that the lens is busted mostly on the highbeams part. Im thinking about going halogen again since the amount of blinding LEDs in texas is crazy, every other car has two suns as their lights it seems...went 2 wheeling once because of their lights (hope you understand the slight saltines😅). But i may reconsider LED. Projectors seem really cool though with halogens (i like the color). Definitely gonna replace my moms headlights with non glarely ones, she bought it with the crappy unaligned, glarely, probably cheap Amazon ones the previous owner installed.
Oooh yes, trucks will blind cars no matter the bulbs honestly because they're higher up. When I drive my Corolla, every single car on the road blinds me because it's lowered lol. But having the proper bulb, installed correctly, and headlights aimed properly, makes the car go from having 2 suns to 2 bright headlights. Also, keep in mind that if you have dimmer lights on your own car, your eyes are adjusted for that (darker) and when someone with brighter lights comes by, your eyes will be more sensitive to those than if you had brighter lights to begin with. This doesn't present itself that much but it's a factor to consider.
@AutoFixYT thanks for you fast reply. My car is 2017 toyota yaris and the headlight bulbs are HIR2 fitment. Will I be able to get an LED straight replacement? Without need for extra cooling
@@rodeoman2751.... Not to take away from this video, at all... but do yourself a big favor, and Look up "Headlight Revolution" youtube channel... he does a Fantastic video showing and explaining all the nuances of different LED headlights.... which type "work" and which types Do Not... and WHY, they work (proper beam without blinding oncoming traffic), or Not. I believe that particular video was called "The Truth about LED bulbs - Don't Buy LED Headlight Bulbs Before Watching This!"..... and you WILL understand why, after watching it. He is Very detailed in his explanations, yet Very Easy to understand.... he obviously Really Knows and Understands, Automotive LED's and Everything associated with them, such as cooling, wiring, etc,etc,etc.... and he should, he's spent the last 15+ years researching, trying all different types of LED Automotive lighting. He even has a thick, detailed Catalogue out now, that many auto-parts stores use as a quick reference guide to help identify the correct type to use on different, specific vehicles, complete with actual night time photographs of different LED types and the actual Beam that they project, in different housings. You Will learn a Lot, just from watching that one video (out of Many, that he has, regarding Automotive LED's)... I guarantee it.
I’m so glad there’s still more and more people that knows how led bulb works. Two sided led bulbs with big enough heatsink and cooling fan. A two sided led chips such as CSP,ZES,CSP flip chips, SMD, Osram, LMP, and Cree led chips that’s the same size of the halogen coil filament, with very thin center piece of the led bulbs works a lot better than halogen, and way better than those dreadful. Disgusting, horrible 3-4-5-6 sided or 360 degree cone shape led, square shape with a bubble led, or double stack led will never perform the same as original halogen headlight bulbs. I had an argument with one dude sayin u know nothing about led, yes we do. With lots of research, see them testing, lots of education. We truly do. Thanks to headlight revolution, car light reviews, Sergiu garbor, and bulbfacts. If it wasn’t for them, this would not happen.
My dad had the 4 sided led bulbs (h4) as an upgrade from the halogen bulbs he had originally. They sucked. At night, no beam pattern. Poor illumination on the road, basically a driving hazard even when you're few in the highway in the middle of the night. I removed them and placed the original halogens, Osram Bilux, illumination is better but not bright. Hopefully I'll upgrade to Philips h4 or a bi-led projector headlights.
@@Chris0-58 Philips are expensive but they are worth it. But why not jump on Lasfit? I recommend Lasfit - LA plus. We have them our Toyota and Scion and I bought more for my friends as well and they love how bright they are, the beam pattern is perfect. And they are reliable: $70 a pair and it’s worth it. Give them a shot before u spend $200
@dimitarhristovskii 6000k is good, it's a nice plain and bright white temperature. A higher number will result in a more blueish hue, colder. A lower number will be warmer, more yellow.
I appreciate this video, hardly anyone tells you how the bulbs are supposed to be oriented. They must be perfectly vertical. I assumed it differed on a model by model basis, but that's good to know, thank you. 5:11 I see a little plastic doodad under the Corolla's left headlight, what is that? I assume it's a spacer to help hold it up?
Ah, yes. That's the Camry, and that plastic piece was there for years because the headlight pivot point was broken and it would fall down. So that piece held it at the perfect height hahaha
@@AutoFixYT ah, a camry with a broken headlight pivot point. Sounds like mine, assuming the piece looks like a plastic piece with a hole to accommodate a metal knuckle. At least I know the name for it now!
@LuwiigiMaster yes haha that's it! I ended up replacing the headlights on thay car but that's pretty much the only way to fix it, is to replace the headlights.
Time to change my bulbs. They were halogen but it lasted for only a year. I'm thinking of getting LED but I remember on highways, the further you are from the car that's behind you. The sharper his white LED lights are. Do you think that the problem is solved by following your tutorial?
That shouldn't be a problem if they're installed properly. If you get good bulbs and have a good clean lens, and you adjust them right, they will work very well.
Awesome video, wish I watched it before I installed mine, but thankfully all went well, I would love to see a video about upgrading from xenons to LEDs, and how to replace the HID projector with an LED projector for optimal LED performance
Very well expalined the reflector part (i am foreigner and understood that part well) however can you explain little more about projector? 🤔 Do they need special bulb? Because I learned from this video I habe projector on my e92 (that explains why I have combined for road lights and normal lights) but they light very slow and maybe I have incorrect bulb 🧐
You don't need a special bulb but a very bright bulb helps when it comes to projectors. If it's LED or not, the brighter the better. If you have halogen bulbs, consider upgrading to LEDs for more light output. If you have xenon bulbs and they aren't shining well, replace them with good xenon bulbs.
@@AutoFixYT honestly I do not know yet what I have because it is car from second hand. I somehow lookes trough lens and I saw something like led but this car should have xenon so I suppose preciousnowner put cheap led inside. I ordered xenon. I hope precvious owner didnt changed wires and antything crucial.
Hello and thanks for all your videos, i watch a lot of then. Any way, i have a 2017 Chevy Impala. As per led head Light's, are the led lights to face side to side or do the leds face up and down. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks 👍
so easiest way to instal them in projector housing will be to put an arrow with marker on bulb that shows top and bottom so you can turn them enough to know how they are positionited easy you can try
I have Toyota Corolla model 2011 with low beam halogen bulps of type HB4 and 51 watt. Can I install 120watt led lights (HB4) without affecting car electrical system?
personal opinion if you want leds and you are going for the brightest and not gonna adjust them atleast use them for the high beam so that you wont be a pain the but for everyone else on the road
Unless people prefer the brightest ones for low beams and as long as they adjust them. But yeah, I prefer super bright like around 30W, and brightest for high beams. Even fog lights, don’t want to be brighter than low beams.. Exact or less bright than low beams.
@JoseRodriguez-fy9so Pick a brand that you think works for you performance and price wise and then just go for it! I've used Auxito, AutoOne, Lasfit, and other brands woth great success.
I can appreciate your view on 'blinding' on-coming drivers...but realistically, 99% of drivers who buy LED's to replace the Halogen headlamps in their car, DON'T CARE if they blind other drivers...they only care how the LED's look in THEIR car... I'll try these LED's in my 2010 Lexus RX 350 ( projector lenses), but my experience has been that the Halogens are easier to aim, and throw more light further down the road than LED's...the LED's are just more diffused and do not lend themselves to being focussed...good video.
Usually bad quality LEDs will do that. I have put good quality LEDs on every type of headlight there is and have had much improved results over halogen. I've also worked with cheap crappy LED bulbs and that's exactly what they do. Diffuse a bunch of light in all directions with no focal point in the center.
U only get the ones that diffuse if u get the wrong type of led like a multi sided led. Two sided with tiny led chips like ZES,SMD, and CSP led chips work a lot better in projector and reflector headlights. Not every correct type of two sided led bulbs are created equal.
We’ll get ur hands on Auxito led fanless led bulb options that Auxito Carrie’s. Like L2 fanless M4 fanless M6 fanless b3F fanless i9 fanless & Lasfit - LD plus switchback led. Look them up on each of their website. And it’s 3000k golden yellow led. Not 3200k.
Leds are 💩 and in the UK they won't pass our MOT Test. Not a problem, just swap em it for the test. However, I've tried many in my projector headlamps and every one was fantastic when first turned on and within 5 to 15 minutes they lose output/brightness so much so you're almost driving blind. The hotter leads get the more they degrade until they cool down. Even if you leave the access cover off the casing. They also don't work for very long. From one week to a month and they're done. Save your money, have your headlamps adjusted properly and stop BLINDING OTHERS‼️
That sounds like an issue you were having with the LEDs you purchased. I've never heard of that happening. I've had many brands of LEDs, and so many people here in the US convert and never have that issue. As for blinding others, I think you missed the entire point of this video. You blind others when you don't do it right. But done right, they should work like factory! I have successfully converted many cars that look like they now have factory LEDs. This video was meant to help others achieve the same results.
@@hamza3p342 that’s because they use better led chips. Such as Osram and Philips. I go for Lasfit, Auxito, and Sylvania led. If I want to put led on a reflector headlights for mimic the perfect beam pattern. Definitely go for Auxito - M3, as they use ZES led chips. And they perform extremely well in a reflector. ZES,CSP,LMP, and SMD led chips work well on both projector and reflector. Just truly depends the rest of the led bulb design. As long as it’s a thin two sided led bulbs. That’s all that matters.
1st - projectors have reflectors too and their geometry is different for HID and halogen bulbs. 2nd - now compare that cheap garbage bulbs to Osram LED smart which are ECE R112 (road legal.)
There’s nothing garbage about the led bulbs, as they are well made as well. And it doesn’t matter if the quality is better than the other, no matter if the warranty is 1,2,3,5,9,10 or lifetime warranty. Thinks can happen if it becomes defective or bulb burned out. These led bulbs are great for the money. We stick with Lasfit, Auxito, and even Boslla, and Sylvania led and zevo led on our cars. Because we know quality is there nowadays. And plus, we know which one is a very good low failure rate. DOT or not. We rather upgrade with led.
these are total garbage!, they have no beam ajustments, they are made of cheap plastic, the throw is going to be garbage..... see the locking ring that should be ajustable around the led light to retain proper light cut off, STOP trying to say these are good, they are not....now look up something like a BPS B2, or ultra V. those are high quality LEDS
Are you talking about the bulbs or the projectors? I understand that there might be better quality, but what i purchased actually works great, it looks and shines the same as a modern factory projector. I've been running the same setup for i think about 6 years now. i
I don’t know about plastic. As these autoone or Auxito led bulbs have very good aviation 6063 aluminum quality construction bulbs. They are purely well made. Some of the led bulbs is almost pure full aluminum but the connector is good plastic made like oem. And some others is full aluminum. Auxito, Lasfit, sylvania led, even auxbeam I have to say, so far the quality of the led bulbs are right one the money. Yes we know that the all in one style led bulbs are not adjustable. That’s because we have cars that has offset halogen bulbs. Honestly I wish Lasfit and Auxito would redesign them all that has all in one style led bulbs, wether if it’s got a cooling fan or fanless with adjustable collar with Allen wrench or 360 adjustable friction fit collar. It’s not garbage if it’s made correctly. And u know what they say, u get what u paid for. If u think they are made of cheap plastic, why not go buy urself a Auxito - M4 fanless led bulbs for $30 a pair and see if u think it has plastic. That’s what I carry and it’s very solid.
Not really dude. It’s the same quality like Auxito. And they quality construction are on point. U honestly can’t go wrong with them. U get what u paid for and from my experience with Auxito. And this implies to autoone, it’s well built and performs way better
I’m not sure what are u talkin about dude. This guy knows exactly what he’s talkin about and knows the difference between right type of led and wrong type of led. And which one works better in projector and reflector, and which one is not. I say that because I understand what he’s talkin about. We know how it works. If u think he’s pretending, ur stupid then. How about u buy the led bulbs like Auxito - M3 or Lasfit - LC plus led bulbs and test them and see if u think they are correct? U just gotta know ur stuff and study a lot of research about it.
@@sjfk1306 ur obviously wrong dude. He knows exactly what he’s doing. I say that because I believe it’s true. If u think this is just pretending, ur majorly wrong. Why not go buy led bulbs and see for urself.
@ so your “beliefs” overpower actual scientific fact? SMH. You are an absolute failure. LED bulbs don’t work in halogen housings correctly. They put out foreground and glare, neither of which are beneficial…. The absolute garbage of society, like that idiot that stares at you in the mirror, thinks LED bulbs are cool because they can’t afford cars with factory LED but still wanna look cool. Brighter isn’t always better, even an idiot knows that, yet, somehow you don’t…
Funny, every single one of the Auxito brand bulbs I have bought in the last 2 years, are blown out already, every singe one. I see this as a total waste of time and money. 50,000 hours is a joke, I am lucky if I got 50 hours out of these piles of poo. Save your money and the headaches. DO NOT BUY THAT BRAND, I AM WARNING YOU, YOU WILL REGRET IT.
Not sure how that happened, I've been running Auxito for years now in multiple cars, never replaced a single bulb. Maybe you got a bad batch? Regardless, nothing wrong with switching brands, it's all personal preference!
We been running with Auxito and we know how it goes. This can happen to any. It doesn’t matter how good the quality led bulbs. No matter if it’s 1,2,4,5,8 or lifetime warranty. Things happen. If one doesn’t work from one product, we look for a different product that might perform better than the other.
If u think we have vision problem ur wrong. We can see fine. We want to see way better. And upgrade with led helps to see better and be seeing better, and especially with deers it helps so much better to avoid and reduce accidents. U don’t blind others if u get the right type of led. Get the correct type of led bulbs like two sided led, adjust the beam pattern height and orientation correctly. And ur set. Halogen is not bright enough and not safe enough to see on the road. And they are thing of the past.
If you are not able to see the road with regular bulbs, you have a problem with your eyes or you are driving very fast. I use my lights just to be seen on the road, i can see everything without them even with just moonlight. Also it doesnt matter what "kind" of led you are using, if it is not coming standart from the car factory, it blinds oncoming driver. Period.
@@burakozc3079 I use to see good with halogens before. After 6 years I canlpt see well before. I had to upgrade with sylvania - silverstar ultra. And it was great but it was not great enough. After 5 months I decided to upgrade with Lasfit led. And it was a huge improvement over stock and SSU. And no there was nothing wrong with my eyes as I can clearly see just fine. I want to see more at night. And yes it does matter than finding g the right type of two sided led bulbs. U just have to find which one works better for either both projector and reflector, one works than the other or vice versa. Especially when we have to deal with deers. So upgrading to led that’s design for projector and reflector headlights is a must. All you gotta do is shit tons of research and see them testing. And I don’t drive fast. And u don’t blind others if u get the right ones. 😉 Period.
In some countries it is illegal to modify the car headlights … if they come halogen you let them halogen , if they xenon they are required to have washers for headlights and auto level.. for newer cars the led headlights are in segments so they don’t disturb other traffic participants … some of them are not road legal rated … its says in the box. : offroad use only!

You did a great job describing the topic. I’m a Sealight guy myself. After I moved out to the country I was uncomfortable driving at night with the stock headlights on my old ‘14 Expedition. There are no public streetlights within 10 miles of my house and it’s a very hilly and winding highway to get to my private dirt road. I have an astigmatism and it’s hard enough for me to see at night anyway. I bought a set of X4’s because they were the brightest set they offered and are built with a collar that you can adjust to aim the LED’s in the perfect direction regardless of your setup. Once I installed them properly to perfectly replicate the filament of a halogen bulb they were amazing! They had the same exact beam pattern as my stock bulbs and both beams of my H13 bulbs worked great. Just bought another set for my new (to me) Excursion as well as all the bulbs needed for every light on the truck. I even sprung for the extra bright reverse lights because that’s really going to help out when I have to back out of my carport at night. Before I upgraded I was one of those people who would get upset at newer cars and their brighter headlights but after I upgraded I noticed that even the brightest (correctly aimed low beams) didn’t mess with my vision nearly as much. I always recommend people to upgrade to a quality LED bulb. Technically it’s not DOT legal but even the state inspectors where I live don’t care about the bulb type as long as it’s adjusted properly.
If anyone watching this video hasn't done so already, adjust your headlights!
I've seen so many people driving with them pointing wait too high or even way too low... it's crazy lol
How do you install on the older car you showed
3:24 This doesn't get brought up enough on arguments online about LED headlights, I have a pair of the Halogen pattern LED's for my Low beams, and normal halogens for my hi-beams.

Thank you!
I want to add something regarding replacing your lenses. If you’re going with a “stock” replacement, don’t buy from off brand on Amazon or EBay. I purchased reflector lenses off of Amazon for my ‘08 Corolla. They were exact replacements, nothing fancy. The beam pattern always seemed off, I blamed it on the LEDs. I decided to purchase OEM lenses from Toyota and it made a huge difference in the beam pattern. The bulbs were aimed a bit high, but I was able to adjust them. If you want to replace your old lenses with the exact same ones, I’d suggest going OEM or with a highly rated aftermarket one if you kind find it
Yes a lot of aftermarket headlights have worse beam patterns. But not all! I have used several brands with great success.
When you're talking about replacing lenses do you mean the entire housing or just the transparent plastic part. Mines has been busted because a family member ran into a truck while on their phone (not too fast just the bumper cover and plastic lenes are busted)
The entire housing. No one sells the transparent cover alone

Your video explains this heated touchy topic pretty well. People think you just plug and play and drive……Not at all. Numerous factors to consider, and most are trial and error and purchase to return. I went thru 3 brands and types before I found ones that are compatible with my vehicle, sit firm snug and tight, don’t blind other drivers, and last but not least, are aesthetically appealing…….unfortunately Most times the aftermarket projector retrofit is the best, sometimes only way to go. I got lucky I guess
Thank you!
I love LEDs and I think upgrading older cars to LED headlights completely changes your driving experience at night. BUT... you have to do it or otherwise you're just wasting your time and money, and getting frustrated at the bulbs. So that's why i made this video, hoping to share some knowledge with people that want to make the switch but are afraid to because they don't know how to do it, or people that have tried and failed and can now try again successfully.
Nice job! great explanation. I thought that Ant was on my computer screen. 😂
Thanks!
Hahahaha the ant
I've come across this because I've fitted LED's and one of them is great, the other is hardly providing a beam at all - and neither was the halogen - its not just poor light, its as if something is blocking it. This video shows me more about the internals (mine is projector type) and what you've said about bulb positioning makes sense - Even though it only appears to fit in one position. I'm off to experiment with that - thanks for an informative feature
Awesome, I'm glad this video helped!
Just checked my highs om my escape, they were put in by Ford about a year back. The bulbs were crooked, i checked cause you said high beams sometimes get installed wrong. Thank you.
Awesome, good thing you fixed them!
This video covers 99% of my questions. Thank you! Especially the types of light, and the way led simulates the bulb lights. Would you discuss the types of light connectors for cars, cause there's a ton.
When it comes to the buob type, you just have to match what's on the car already.
Something to consider is the colour rendering (CRI) of any aftermarket headlight. The point of headlights is primarily to be able to see in the dark after all, and while brightness and aim are important, if the headlights make certain colours “disappear”, you are still blind to those things.
In this regard halogens are naturally superior, the incandescent lightbulb has a CRI of nearly 100.
Also worthy of mention is that the CANBUS system on many vehicles will often not be happy with many LED replacements, especially if you are changing from incandescent.
Some bulbs “fool” the CANBUS by having what’s essentially a resistor in parallel with the LED to mimic the current draw of the OEM light. Which is a bit silly since you are now effectively wasting the energy saving potential of LED bulbs 😂
Overall I think sticking to what the manufacturer specified and making sure the light assembly, lenses and wiring are in good condition is a better idea than to start messing around with aftermarket replacements.
Question ?? On most sites it gives you the wattage & how many lumens combined , so how do you know like for instance oh many lumens is the low beams compared to the high beams ??
The lumens are usually the same between those two especially on LED bulbs. The difference is the mounting area of the bulbs, and where the beam is pointing through the headlight housing.
Those little ones are rebrands as Auxito. CLR tested those called Auxito - 10S.
They produce 16.5W per bulb after the observation. And they get warm up to 141 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is very good.
The lower the temperature, the better the lifespan is.
The higher the wattage and temperature, the shorter the lifespan is.
I will look into that, thank you!
also, if possible, see if your budget allows for auto adjusting Xenon’s. In my opinion they’re better than LED’s and Halogens. They’re as bright as LED’s, if not brighter. But can move around on their own to adjust for vehicle height and body roll.
That's something that would work great on a vehicle that tows often, but even so in most cases it's hard if not impossible to add that feature if the vehicle doesn't already have it.
@@AutoFixYT I forget the brand i’ll have to look it up again, but there was one out there that made a universal kit that had a gyroscope type of thing in this little computer that would auto adjust the lights, only issue was that it costs almost 2k
Excellent explanation of reflectors vs projector headlights and upgrading to LED's! 😊
@@DaveNanan Thank you
My bulbs comes in from the side, how should i install it? 12/6 or 1 led side facing projector front?
I have never seen a side mount bulb before. Place it so the LEDs are perpendicular to the direction of the beam, and they are always supposed to be at 9 and 3 o'clock
Great..thanks for the information dude!
Quick question,,do you have to change any fuses or something because of probably different power ratings of halogens and led?
No need to change any fuses! Just plug them in, make sure the lights are aimed correctly, and off you go!
Very informative video, i didn’t know how the Led side in the bulb needed to sit inside the housing. Thanks man
Glad it helped!
Easy answer. Never put anything other than halogen in halogen lamps. The light refraction will never be right because leds do NOT emit light correctly.
Halogen emits 360 degrees. Led emits horizontally. Whatever you see hitting the ground, they will emit the same upward into the face of other drivers.
Exactly! 💯
LEDs can't perfectly mimic a halogen bulb. This is why it's ideal, not to use them in refractory style headlights. They can work in projection headlights, but it's a trial by error even with those.
Easy answer, get over it
This guy don’t understand that there are shit LEDs that do exactly what he is saying, and then there are good quality LEDs that contradict everything he has said. I don’t wanna hear the shit honestly….i promise you this: There’s no way anybody who watched or commented on this video tested every aftermarket LED bulb themselves and came up with the same negative conclusion on all of them.
I’m using LEDs for my high beams from Ali Express which had good reviews. They work amazing!!
If it works it works!
High beams are easy. No fancy beam cutoff needed.
Agreed, but they still need a good beam pattern so they can shine far enough.
question on your lexus bulbs, were they a straight up replacement? meaning I can just order a d2s bulb and swap out the HID bulb? or do I need to do something else? Thanks!
U can change from HID to LED if it’s specific design. Lasfit and Auxito makes for D2S HID for LED.
They are brighter than a 35W and 55W HID.
Because every single year we see more and more improvement that are better in the world of LED.
So projektor headlights are better to convert to led, then a reflektor headlight? Converted my headlights on my 04 forester with h4 , to led´s but lowbeam is bad, it has some blind spots and the light output seems weak, sure one of the headlights is clody but its going to be changed to a better one, also going back to halogen bulbs with osram nightbreaker
Yes it's better to convert projector, but that doesn't mean you can't convert reflector. Your weak beam is likely a combination of a wsak bulb as well as the haze on the headlight. The pattern comes mostly from the reflector, but can be negatively affected by a bad bulb or one that wasn't installed correctly
So all reflecter car are gonna be the same on all cars and the led should be upright and of good quality?
@@arhumtariq9455 yes
When buffing go down to 500 and work your way up it works alot better!
Great explanation brother
Thank you!
Nice video. My headlights are dieing out slowly, doesn't help that the lens is busted mostly on the highbeams part. Im thinking about going halogen again since the amount of blinding LEDs in texas is crazy, every other car has two suns as their lights it seems...went 2 wheeling once because of their lights (hope you understand the slight saltines😅). But i may reconsider LED. Projectors seem really cool though with halogens (i like the color). Definitely gonna replace my moms headlights with non glarely ones, she bought it with the crappy unaligned, glarely, probably cheap Amazon ones the previous owner installed.
Oooh yes, trucks will blind cars no matter the bulbs honestly because they're higher up. When I drive my Corolla, every single car on the road blinds me because it's lowered lol. But having the proper bulb, installed correctly, and headlights aimed properly, makes the car go from having 2 suns to 2 bright headlights. Also, keep in mind that if you have dimmer lights on your own car, your eyes are adjusted for that (darker) and when someone with brighter lights comes by, your eyes will be more sensitive to those than if you had brighter lights to begin with. This doesn't present itself that much but it's a factor to consider.
So you CAN in fact replace a Halogen bulb with an LED bulb in reflector headlamps? As long as the LED is positioned correctly (standing upright) ?
Yes, exactly. You also need to make sure it's a well made LED not a cheap one that will not reflect light properly.
@AutoFixYT thanks for you fast reply. My car is 2017 toyota yaris and the headlight bulbs are HIR2 fitment. Will I be able to get an LED straight replacement? Without need for extra cooling
@@rodeoman2751.... Not to take away from this video, at all... but do yourself a big favor, and Look up "Headlight Revolution" youtube channel... he does a Fantastic video showing and explaining all the nuances of different LED headlights.... which type "work" and which types Do Not... and WHY, they work (proper beam without blinding oncoming traffic), or Not.
I believe that particular video was called "The Truth about LED bulbs - Don't Buy LED Headlight Bulbs Before Watching This!"..... and you WILL understand why, after watching it.
He is Very detailed in his explanations, yet Very Easy to understand.... he obviously Really Knows and Understands, Automotive LED's and Everything associated with them, such as cooling, wiring, etc,etc,etc.... and he should, he's spent the last 15+ years researching, trying all different types of LED Automotive lighting.
He even has a thick, detailed Catalogue out now, that many auto-parts stores use as a quick reference guide to help identify the correct type to use on different, specific vehicles, complete with actual night time photographs of different LED types and the actual Beam that they project, in different housings. You Will learn a Lot, just from watching that one video (out of Many, that he has, regarding Automotive LED's)... I guarantee it.
There is one from Philips
@@rodeoman2751look up Auxito - M3. Those are known for perfect beam pattern exactly as oem. And it uses ZES led chips.
I was under the impression you MUST install a resistor when changing over from halogen to led .
@Love4raine no, that only applies to turn signals so they don't hyperflash. Even those, you can replace the relay and skip the resistor.
I’m so glad there’s still more and more people that knows how led bulb works. Two sided led bulbs with big enough heatsink and cooling fan.
A two sided led chips such as CSP,ZES,CSP flip chips, SMD, Osram, LMP, and Cree led chips that’s the same size of the halogen coil filament, with very thin center piece of the led bulbs works a lot better than halogen, and way better than those dreadful.
Disgusting, horrible 3-4-5-6 sided or 360 degree cone shape led, square shape with a bubble led, or double stack led will never perform the same as original halogen headlight bulbs.
I had an argument with one dude sayin u know nothing about led, yes we do. With lots of research, see them testing, lots of education. We truly do.
Thanks to headlight revolution, car light reviews, Sergiu garbor, and bulbfacts.
If it wasn’t for them, this would not happen.
My dad had the 4 sided led bulbs (h4) as an upgrade from the halogen bulbs he had originally. They sucked. At night, no beam pattern. Poor illumination on the road, basically a driving hazard even when you're few in the highway in the middle of the night.
I removed them and placed the original halogens, Osram Bilux, illumination is better but not bright. Hopefully I'll upgrade to Philips h4 or a bi-led projector headlights.
@@Chris0-58 Philips are expensive but they are worth it.
But why not jump on Lasfit? I recommend Lasfit - LA plus. We have them our Toyota and Scion and I bought more for my friends as well and they love how bright they are, the beam pattern is perfect. And they are reliable:
$70 a pair and it’s worth it.
Give them a shot before u spend $200
What K do you recomend for LED headlights? Something like 6000K more or less? What is the best
@dimitarhristovskii 6000k is good, it's a nice plain and bright white temperature. A higher number will result in a more blueish hue, colder. A lower number will be warmer, more yellow.
3000k for weather is great. 4300k warm or oem white to up to 6500k cool white is best ones.
I appreciate this video, hardly anyone tells you how the bulbs are supposed to be oriented. They must be perfectly vertical. I assumed it differed on a model by model basis, but that's good to know, thank you.
5:11 I see a little plastic doodad under the Corolla's left headlight, what is that? I assume it's a spacer to help hold it up?
Ah, yes. That's the Camry, and that plastic piece was there for years because the headlight pivot point was broken and it would fall down. So that piece held it at the perfect height hahaha
@@AutoFixYT ah, a camry with a broken headlight pivot point. Sounds like mine, assuming the piece looks like a plastic piece with a hole to accommodate a metal knuckle. At least I know the name for it now!
@LuwiigiMaster yes haha that's it! I ended up replacing the headlights on thay car but that's pretty much the only way to fix it, is to replace the headlights.
@@AutoFixYT a headlight kit comes with the required piece? Interesting, good to know!
Very good explanation across the board for types of headlight and installation, to include correct orientation of the bulb👍
Time to change my bulbs. They were halogen but it lasted for only a year. I'm thinking of getting LED but I remember on highways, the further you are from the car that's behind you. The sharper his white LED lights are. Do you think that the problem is solved by following your tutorial?
That shouldn't be a problem if they're installed properly. If you get good bulbs and have a good clean lens, and you adjust them right, they will work very well.
Very helpful explanation
Thank you!
That is a great video! Wish all drivers could watch you!
Haha thank you!
Great video!
IMO, get either a Morimoto-brand bulb or GTR 2 lighting bulb. You won't regret it!
Heard good things about those, thanks for the recommendation!
Chris fix from temu?
@@alfred7136 lpl
I have Marsauto LED in 3 vehicles with no problem. Brighter than halogen but not blinding.

Not sure if you mentioned it in the video, but what size projectors are installed on your corolla? 2.5 inch?
I did not mention it actually, but yes, 2.5" projectors. They work great!
I ordered H9 philips led as high beam for my passat 2015,cant wait to see them at night,great video✌️
Best explanation. Thanks!
You're welcome!
Awesome video, wish I watched it before I installed mine, but thankfully all went well, I would love to see a video about upgrading from xenons to LEDs, and how to replace the HID projector with an LED projector for optimal LED performance
How much chris fix do you watch?
Yes.
Chris Fix Jr?
@@brianjoshuabanawis3105 lol
Very well expalined the reflector part (i am foreigner and understood that part well) however can you explain little more about projector? 🤔 Do they need special bulb? Because I learned from this video I habe projector on my e92 (that explains why I have combined for road lights and normal lights) but they light very slow and maybe I have incorrect bulb 🧐
You don't need a special bulb but a very bright bulb helps when it comes to projectors. If it's LED or not, the brighter the better. If you have halogen bulbs, consider upgrading to LEDs for more light output. If you have xenon bulbs and they aren't shining well, replace them with good xenon bulbs.
@@AutoFixYT honestly I do not know yet what I have because it is car from second hand. I somehow lookes trough lens and I saw something like led but this car should have xenon so I suppose preciousnowner put cheap led inside. I ordered xenon. I hope precvious owner didnt changed wires and antything crucial.
I've got SILVERHOLDER LED bulbs, with the little fans, in my Toyota. I call them my "retina-burners!" They are brite!
You can clean that hazy lense with brake fluid dot 3
Hello and thanks for all your videos, i watch a lot of then.
Any way, i have a 2017 Chevy Impala. As per led head Light's, are the led lights to face side to side or do the leds face up and down. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks 👍
LED bulbs always have to face side to side
U r good at explaining 🙏🏻
Thanks
so easiest way to instal them in projector housing will be to put an arrow with marker on bulb that shows top and bottom so you can turn them enough to know how they are positionited easy you can try
Yeah that would work well! Thanks for the tip!
I have Toyota Corolla model 2011 with low beam halogen bulps of type HB4 and 51 watt. Can I install 120watt led lights (HB4) without affecting car electrical system?
I looked everywhere for autoone led bulb info.
This info helped a lot.
Thank you
Thanks!
personal opinion
if you want leds and you are going for the brightest and not gonna adjust them atleast use them for the high beam so that you wont be a pain the but for everyone else on the road
Yeah, good point. But best thing is to adjust the beam no matter what you do lol
Unless people prefer the brightest ones for low beams and as long as they adjust them.
But yeah, I prefer super bright like around 30W, and brightest for high beams.
Even fog lights, don’t want to be brighter than low beams..
Exact or less bright than low beams.
good video😁
I have a Malibu 1980 and i would like to pud led lights any suggestions?
@JoseRodriguez-fy9so Pick a brand that you think works for you performance and price wise and then just go for it! I've used Auxito, AutoOne, Lasfit, and other brands woth great success.
I can appreciate your view on 'blinding' on-coming drivers...but realistically, 99% of drivers who buy LED's to replace the Halogen headlamps in their car, DON'T CARE if they blind other drivers...they only care how the LED's look in THEIR car...
I'll try these LED's in my 2010 Lexus RX 350 ( projector lenses), but my experience has been that the Halogens are easier to aim, and throw more light further down the road than LED's...the LED's are just more diffused and do not lend themselves to being focussed...good video.
Usually bad quality LEDs will do that. I have put good quality LEDs on every type of headlight there is and have had much improved results over halogen. I've also worked with cheap crappy LED bulbs and that's exactly what they do. Diffuse a bunch of light in all directions with no focal point in the center.
U only get the ones that diffuse if u get the wrong type of led like a multi sided led. Two sided with tiny led chips like ZES,SMD, and CSP led chips work a lot better in projector and reflector headlights.
Not every correct type of two sided led bulbs are created equal.
hey guys chris fix right here... i mean auto fix
Lol
Yes thank you for the flash bangs when you put the shity bulbs in
They give gloves to not touch the LED’s with your hands. The oils will cause a hot spot, leading to burnout.

Mom- we have chris fix at home
The chris fix at home .........
Was looking for this one
In the projectors the led should be horizontal not vertical i think 🤔
@@ismailniro No, of you put it horizontal it will not reflect correctly off of the back and you won't get all the light output.
Leds are 💩 and in the UK they won't pass our MOT Test. Not a problem, just swap em it for the test.
However, I've tried many in my projector headlamps and every one was fantastic when first turned on and within 5 to 15 minutes they lose output/brightness so much so you're almost driving blind.
The hotter leads get the more they degrade until they cool down.
Even if you leave the access cover off the casing.
They also don't work for very long. From one week to a month and they're done.
Save your money, have your headlamps adjusted properly and stop BLINDING OTHERS‼️
That sounds like an issue you were having with the LEDs you purchased. I've never heard of that happening. I've had many brands of LEDs, and so many people here in the US convert and never have that issue.
As for blinding others, I think you missed the entire point of this video. You blind others when you don't do it right. But done right, they should work like factory! I have successfully converted many cars that look like they now have factory LEDs. This video was meant to help others achieve the same results.
The philippines has a better led light market. Brighter and longer lasting
It's possible
Morimoto - 2stroke 4.0 does a way better job than Philips led
Is China best LED ? 🤔
That's all you're gonna get so not much of a choice in regards to manufacturing location.
These LED bulbs are extremely blinding. The NTSB needs to do their job to end this hazard.
I think you missed the point of this video lol
Only if u get the wrong type of led bulbs. The correct ones retains the same beam pattern and it will not blind others.
Exactly
@@toyotabronyif you’re using it in a reflector lens. I would only recommend Philips or osram led bulbs as they will be made properly
@@hamza3p342 that’s because they use better led chips. Such as Osram and Philips.
I go for Lasfit, Auxito, and Sylvania led.
If I want to put led on a reflector headlights for mimic the perfect beam pattern.
Definitely go for Auxito - M3, as they use ZES led chips. And they perform extremely well in a reflector.
ZES,CSP,LMP, and SMD led chips work well on both projector and reflector. Just truly depends the rest of the led bulb design.
As long as it’s a thin two sided led bulbs. That’s all that matters.
1st - projectors have reflectors too and their geometry is different for HID and halogen bulbs. 2nd - now compare that cheap garbage bulbs to Osram LED smart which are ECE R112 (road legal.)
There’s nothing garbage about the led bulbs, as they are well made as well.
And it doesn’t matter if the quality is better than the other, no matter if the warranty is 1,2,3,5,9,10 or lifetime warranty. Thinks can happen if it becomes defective or bulb burned out.
These led bulbs are great for the money.
We stick with Lasfit, Auxito, and even Boslla, and Sylvania led and zevo led on our cars.
Because we know quality is there nowadays.
And plus, we know which one is a very good low failure rate.
DOT or not. We rather upgrade with led.
Ripping off the Chris Fix approach, super cringe
these are total garbage!, they have no beam ajustments, they are made of cheap plastic, the throw is going to be garbage..... see the locking ring that should be ajustable around the led light to retain proper light cut off, STOP trying to say these are good, they are not....now look up something like a BPS B2, or ultra V. those are high quality LEDS
Are you talking about the bulbs or the projectors? I understand that there might be better quality, but what i purchased actually works great, it looks and shines the same as a modern factory projector. I've been running the same setup for i think about 6 years now. i
Could you recommend me something for my 2015 Chrysler 200 limited🙏
@@greacelightning4670 Auxito, Lasfit, AutoOne, Boslla, and several other brands that you can find on Amazon are great. Look at those.
I don’t know about plastic. As these autoone or Auxito led bulbs have very good aviation 6063 aluminum quality construction bulbs.
They are purely well made. Some of the led bulbs is almost pure full aluminum but the connector is good plastic made like oem.
And some others is full aluminum.
Auxito, Lasfit, sylvania led, even auxbeam I have to say, so far the quality of the led bulbs are right one the money.
Yes we know that the all in one style led bulbs are not adjustable.
That’s because we have cars that has offset halogen bulbs.
Honestly I wish Lasfit and Auxito would redesign them all that has all in one style led bulbs, wether if it’s got a cooling fan or fanless with adjustable collar with Allen wrench or 360 adjustable friction fit collar.
It’s not garbage if it’s made correctly.
And u know what they say, u get what u paid for.

@ so your “beliefs” overpower actual scientific fact? SMH. You are an absolute failure. LED bulbs don’t work in halogen housings correctly. They put out foreground and glare, neither of which are beneficial…. The absolute garbage of society, like that idiot that stares at you in the mirror, thinks LED bulbs are cool because they can’t afford cars with factory LED but still wanna look cool. Brighter isn’t always better, even an idiot knows that, yet, somehow you don’t…
Funny, every single one of the Auxito brand bulbs I have bought in the last 2 years, are blown out already, every singe one. I see this as a total waste of time and money. 50,000 hours is a joke, I am lucky if I got 50 hours out of these piles of poo. Save your money and the headaches. DO NOT BUY THAT BRAND, I AM WARNING YOU, YOU WILL REGRET IT.
Not sure how that happened, I've been running Auxito for years now in multiple cars, never replaced a single bulb. Maybe you got a bad batch? Regardless, nothing wrong with switching brands, it's all personal preference!
We been running with Auxito and we know how it goes. This can happen to any. It doesn’t matter how good the quality led bulbs.
No matter if it’s 1,2,4,5,8 or lifetime warranty.
Things happen.
If one doesn’t work from one product, we look for a different product that might perform better than the other.
Led light is ridiculous. If you cant see your way with halogens, just go to a doctor, not put blinding led sh1t into your car!
Around me we have a ton of deer and being able to see them sooner with a led has saved me a vehicle or two
@@josephgerst2551 I dont think it is because of led bulbs but you have an issue with your eyes or you are driving faster than you should.
If u think we have vision problem ur wrong.
We can see fine. We want to see way better. And upgrade with led helps to see better and be seeing better, and especially with deers it helps so much better to avoid and reduce accidents.
U don’t blind others if u get the right type of led.
Get the correct type of led bulbs like two sided led, adjust the beam pattern height and orientation correctly. And ur set.
Halogen is not bright enough and not safe enough to see on the road. And they are thing of the past.
If you are not able to see the road with regular bulbs, you have a problem with your eyes or you are driving very fast. I use my lights just to be seen on the road, i can see everything without them even with just moonlight.
Also it doesnt matter what "kind" of led you are using, if it is not coming standart from the car factory, it blinds oncoming driver.
Period.
@@burakozc3079 I use to see good with halogens before. After 6 years I canlpt see well before. I had to upgrade with sylvania - silverstar ultra. And it was great but it was not great enough.
After 5 months I decided to upgrade with Lasfit led. And it was a huge improvement over stock and SSU.
And no there was nothing wrong with my eyes as I can clearly see just fine. I want to see more at night.
And yes it does matter than finding g the right type of two sided led bulbs.
U just have to find which one works better for either both projector and reflector, one works than the other or vice versa.
Especially when we have to deal with deers.
So upgrading to led that’s design for projector and reflector headlights is a must.
All you gotta do is shit tons of research and see them testing.
And I don’t drive fast.
And u don’t blind others if u get the right ones. 😉
