omg me too, i bought a set of 6 and got all the same h11 was like huh??? and returned them because thought was different and wrong sizes. this video helped a lot.
Been running H9 in lieu of H11 since one of my Morimoto 2 Strokes burnt out. Vey impressed with the output and it’s lasted as long as I’ve had 2 Strokes. Finally upgraded to H11 Xtreme LED pros because of the fan less option. It was truly the best bang for your buck. 👍
but if you put a more powerful (65w) bulb instead of a 35w bulb won't damage something in that light housing (like the inner part of it,the reflective mirror)?
You would only have to worry about heat damage with higher-wattage HIDs - the most you have to worry about with higher-wattage halogen bulbs is poor reliability. More wattage typically means a shorter lifespan.
Why Joel's advise matters: Electrical devices with different wattages are more dependent on the device, not the power source. A lower wattage device will run normally in a high-watt situation, while a high-wattage device can burn out lower-watt lines and fuses, and even start fires. Before upgrading, be sure your fixture and wiring (all the way to the source, depending on your application) support _at least_ the wattage of your device. Think of it this way: The power source does not _push_ power to the device, the device _pulls_ power from the source. If it pulls too hard, bad things can happen. This is why tiny night lights are fine in your home's wall socket, but a big guitar amp might burn the socket or blow a fuse. The device is usually fine in both cases.
Hi there! I am planning to swap out my halogen h8 35w fog lights from my a4 b9 as they are a bit yellow. I was wondering if i can swap them with led ones. Can i safely use some led with a wattage higher or lower than the 35 on the halogens as it seems i cannot find some 35w led. Thanks
Are H11, H9 and H8 the same? Yes, H11, H9, and H8 are the same bulbs they just carry different part numbers, positions, and default wattages for standard halogen bulb replacements. Aside from these minor differences, all three are identical on every other front from size and shape to locking tabs and connectors
Any chance you guys could revisit D1S Led bulbs? They’re all over the internet now and a lot of plug & play options. I’d love to get your updated opinion before I decide to give them a try over my current osrams.
My 2015 Dodge Dart GT has 2012 headlights and H11 foglights. I currently run Osram 9006 Night Breaker Online headlights and H11 Night Breaker laser foglights. I've heard 9012 are brighter but have yet to find a light brighter than my Osrams.
I currently use a Toyota Camry 2006 Model America Spec..please I'd like to know the following: 1: What is the best Head Light Bulb Brand or top 3/5 head light bulb brand 2: When I drive at night, my car light bulb is never bright, do I change the entire head light housing or just the bulb? What do I do? 3: My car head light housing is dull and the front glass is dull, does this affect the light brightness? Please what do I do? Do I change the entire house
1. Morimoto Lighting, GTR Lighting, SV4, Philips 2. How old is your current bulb? What are the condition of the lenses? Is the bowl burnt? Try replacing the bulb first, and then go from there! 3. Yes, a hazy lens will make light output worse. You can either re-finish the headlight lens or replace the headlight altogether.
I have halogen bulbs, I want to switch them to Leds. Do I need a bellaster for the Leds to work, or is there a led that is like a "plug and play" i could put in?
I have a 2020 Nissan rogue, I need to buy the low and high beam headlight bulbs LED (set of 4)my question:; is there a difference between the high and low beam bulbs, I know that the brightness is normally different between them, but is it because the bulb itself is more powerful and brighter, or it is the shape of the light housing itself is what makes the light brighter when it reflects. Anyone knows? Thanks
@@HeadlightRevolution thanks for the reply So in this case I already have the Sylvania H11 as a low beam. So I have to buy another H11 and no need to order the H9. Right?
@@HeadlightRevolution yeah,i thout i could make a DYI connector but i was thinking how about the mounting sockets on the headlight. 😅 thanks for the info. Btw... Love the videos bro
I didn't understand the video very well because it was not in the same language, but I have a question: Can H11 be installed on a vehicle with H9 high beam? Is there any difference?
@@HeadlightRevolution But while h9 is a 12v 65w bulb, h11 appears to be 32w. Does using 32w cause any problems? Can 32w be used instead of 65w? thank you for replying
Finally a video explaining this, I've been going crazy trying to figure this out for the past 6 months
You're welcome, glad we could help!

The Xtreme LEDs are a great option if you're worried about fan failure, glad you found a good replacement!

Could you please make a video for H7 vs H8 bulbs and which brand gives better brightness. Thanks
We can note that for a future video!

Not sure about a full headlight replacement, you might just be limited to LED bulb upgrades!
There's another one H16, 19W bulb
I agree, my 18 Highlander has H16 fogs at 19W. I wonder, if I replace them with a set of higher watt leds, will they be capped at 19W?
@@jacksonleung4479 to be on the safer side, it's better to install a relay kit and install H11 55w or H8 35w

Yes you can safely use LEDs in your fog light, they produce much less heat than halogen bulbs.
So that's why I've been getting blinded by so many people. I gotta get H9 for all my lights now.
YES!!! Tht 💩 burns my as,now I'm doing sum about tht.

Hi. What is the best headlight LED bulb replacement for my 2018 Toyota C-hr?

If it's an OEM LED headlight, unfortunately those bulbs aren't replaceable!

Does the h8/h11 led bulb the same connection as the factory 880 fog light on a 02 avalanche
880 is not cross-compatible with H11

These LEDs are competely plug and play, no ballast required.

Cab h11 led bulb and h8 led bulb be replaced with each other?

The low beam uses an H11 bulb type, the high beam uses H9. If you're replacing them with LEDs, it would all be the same size - H11.
@@HeadlightRevolution thanks for the reply
So in this case I already have the Sylvania H11 as a low beam. So I have to buy another H11 and no need to order the H9. Right?
But is it gonna be brighter as a high beam or it will be the same shine of the low beam, ie I’ll have 4 lights the same power of brightness?
Can i modify an h15 be fitted with h11? My setup is that my h11/lowbeam is brighter than my h15/high beam 😅
H15 will not be compatible with H11 sockets or connectors.
@@HeadlightRevolution yeah,i thout i could make a DYI connector but i was thinking how about the mounting sockets on the headlight. 😅 thanks for the info. Btw... Love the videos bro

And this is valid for the new photon LED headlight I will buy.
Yes, H11 can be cross-compatible with H8 and H9 bulbs.

ماذا عن H16 ?
H16 is also cross compatible with H8, H9, and H11
Excellent vid. Also the product looks super useful especially for mod 3 with such low/aero efficiency biased ground clearance
Absolutely, we agree!
