Hi chaps, does anyone have cheap/good value for money LED headlight bulbs they can recommend for vehicle headlights?
I'm looking for the H4 size and ideally 4000k light temperature, Banggood and the usual suspects seem to sell plenty but I'm just not sure which ones are worth it.
I'm not sure where to post this thread so apologies in advance to the mods if this is posted in the wrong section.
For what car is this?
Honda CRV, uses H4 size headlight globes, will the type/make of car make any difference other than the globe size/type?
Most of the times LED bulbs don’t work on a projector, but if you’re looking to use it as DRL/highbeams they work just fine. I had a 2013 Honda CRV with the 2-in-1 DRL/high and I installed one from OPT7 and has 3 sides with a 15W Cobb each and a cooling fan in the rear.
I believe this model is now discontinued and now they have bulbs with XM-L2 and XHP50.
Kind of disappointing compared to the HID but since I rarely use the high beams I kept them, because as DRL they are fantastic, I hate Incan lights on cars. After 3 years still going strong.
You mean for LED bulbs to work properly you need to replace the reflector as well, stock reflectors are only optimized for halogen?
My headlights are not HID, just halogens.
yes that is exactly the case. it will not be focused correctly, it will flood foreground and make it difficult to see far, you will basically turn them into flood lights, you will also blind the sht out of incoming cars and those that in front of you.
how old is your car? did your headlight lenses turn yellow, and somewhat frosted? cuz if they did, no led, or hid will make it better, polish lenses, you can replace your stock bulb with comparable HIR bulb, but it wont be day and night difference, a little better, but if you do both (polish lenses, install hir bulb, you will see improvement.
