Heated headlights on my 2016 Freightliner Coronado Glider. Why aren't LED headlights good in winter?

  • LED headlights are bright and more energy efficient but, they don't produce heat from the bulbs so allow snow and ice to build on them. Wath the video and I'll explain.

      Thanks Lynn. She got good news on her GI Specialist blood work. So far God is letting all the results come back so far just tiny things and not what they were expecting to see. GOD is good.

    I opted for the low budget unheated ones too (4x6 4 of them ), same problem . I'm not in snow or sleet too often, tried spraying em down with WD40, helps a little but not like those heated ones. 👍

    I drive an 07 coronado... looking to upgrade my headlights too. Im sure something has to be different between the years but very cool upgrade.

      your coronado is the same body style as our gliders, first generation. 2011 was second generation for non glider trucks from freightliner.

    Where did you get your bracket for mounting the headlights? I’m looking to get the same mounting brackets you have.

    Hey man which headlight bracket are you using to hold the headlight in place? Because freightliner said they have nothing that fits 7inch LED only the original headlight assembly.

    • @TheTourettesTrucker
      @TheTourettesTrucker  ปีที่แล้ว

      When I replaced mine back in 2016 I never saw a universal bracket but they have them now.

      They are a tad pricey for sure but I know they do keep the snow from building up and I can see better with these over the halogen.
