Note: This video is for educational purposes only and may show street-use content with products that may not be DOT compliant for use on public roads. The video is not intended to imply vehicle-specific street legality. LED and HID bulbs are street legal in the USA for fog light use and not in low beam or high beam headlights because they are not compliant with DOT / FMVSS108. When looking for on-road-use headlight upgrades we recommend DOT-compliant headlight housings, not bulb replacements. Certain specialty vehicles strictly limited to off-street use and not having DOT registration or license plates may use these products exclusively off-streets.

I absolutely enjoyed watching this video! I find it really entertaining and you explained the different types of bulbs really well! I run LEDs in reflector headlights and they come out way brighter and way better. It depending on what bulb your looking for and like you said in the video, figure out the length and the width of the led bulb. A lot of people will say “No! You can’t use LEDs in reflector headlights! You’re blinding everybody!” I did have slightly shorter length LEDs in reflector headlights, I didn’t ever get flashed by oncoming cars, however, I’m always being a self conscious that the beam pattern isn’t brilliant and the cut off line isn’t great. I look into slightly longer ones which is Novsight ones again, it depends of how long and the width of the bulb you’re looking for. I gone for longer ones and the beam pattern comes out much better! Thank you so much for the info about the different bulbs!

In a way, You're right. The headlight bulb collar can only be inserted and locked into place one way. From there, Most headlight bulbs can be adjusted or 'clocked' inside the collar itself. This will allow you to ensure the LEDs on the bulb are oriented properly in that particular headlight.

Wow, I am so pleased to finally see someone who actually does know what he's talking about. Great job explaining why leds dont work in halogen reflectors. Another aspect to consider is the kelvin factor. The AMA asserts that the super white or high kelvin bulbs actually cause your pupils to constrict reducing visibility further. We see best with sunlight about 4500k since millions of years of practice. Oh, and could you please do a video on how to, and the importance of adjusting headlights correctly. Seems like some people need that. Great job , thanks.

I watched this after I installed the 4 sided 9006 low beam led lights. I was using 2 sided 9006 LEDs and I saw 3-4 sided ones when I was browsing. Since their prices were very similar to my 2 sided ones, I decided to UPGRADE my low beams with the more powerful ones. Actually they are producing more light than my 2 sided ones in my case but the problem is they have vertically wider angle with the same headlights. I was trying to find out how to adjust the aim of the low and high beam lights separately because the upper line of 4 sided LEDs were quite higher than my high beams. I found only one adjustment bolt in my 2006 Honda Odyssey that adjusts the aim of the whole assembly. I am not a professional but if I understand everything correctly, there should be no way to adjust them properly while preserving the aim of the high beams. Because the additional sides of the 2 sided bulbs will always create a problem since they are not designed properly as you explained in this video. Thanks for sharing 👍
@HeadlightRevolution 3 жыл бұрын
That is the issue with those multi sided LEDs, they usually produce terrible beam patterns. If adjusting the headlights is not fixing anything, I hate to say it but the bulbs themselves may be causing the issue.

Hoping to match my upgrade to the headlight's which work perfectly!! Theory seemed will founded...all those LED's should have lite up a football stadium. After install and facing the car, they didn't seem overly impressive but the light color matched the headlights... from behind the steering wheel I thought they had burnt out!! Being it was twilight outside at the time, I thought they would get better at full darkness. NOT! Turning the fog lights only on, was the only way I knew they were working. I literally had better down the road brightness holding my cellphone out the window with the flashlight on. Thanks for the info to understanding why it doesn't work!!!

I noticed the cone shaped led was only used in the halogen housing which I would have suspected would look like crap. But, if it was used in a projector housing with a shutter that calls for say a 9012 bulb, it seems to me that this would be an ideal situation, because the shutter would cut light from the end of the bulb in low beam and open the entire light source on high beam. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Last week purchased a 360 degree like the black one. Indeed a worthless light pattern. Waste of money. Thanks for this video. Wish I'd seen this video a bit sooner 😅

Vision Pro P series is an interesting bulb it's for projectors. It's Sit in the housing and the two chips are on either side like this...∆ it worked awesome on tests. Still two sided but led chips are positioned at 10 and 2 rather than 9 and 3. Your thoughts???

Have you ever tested LED bulb in housing that are for off road equipment? The housing that I am wondering about were reflector style and generally used a 9005 bulb. Typically they were setup to produce either a trapezoidal or flood pattern. I assume the same basic apply for the trapezoidal hosing but what about the flood?
@HeadlightRevolution 4 жыл бұрын
A good set of LED bulbs should still imitate that same pattern, Especially if you go with something like the GTR Lighting Ultra Series 2 or the S-V.4

I totally agree, that 2sided LEDs are the way to go. BUT I have headlight with separate high and low beam and it seems, that multiple-sided led would be better for high beam reflector. Yes, their light source may have larger area, but I don't think it is a downside in high beams. They may be hot, but I think that would be okay, because you don't use high beams for long periods of time. What do you think please?
@HeadlightRevolution 4 жыл бұрын
The issue with using multi sided LED bulbs for high beams would be the lack of brightness and also a terrible beam pattern. Even though you don't have to worry about blinding people when your high beams on (assuming no traffic is coming since they are on) you won't have the light going where it's needed. 2 Sided bulbs will still be better for high beam applications.

I like how the video used some measurements, however I personally disagree with the fact that having multisided led is bad for headlights, i might agree in some regular headlights but in most modern headlights which contain a lens, it is automatically designed to gather the light into one spot

I recently found your channel and admire your knowledge of LEDs. I’ve been watching for any info I can get on buying some LED lights to upgrade the fog lights on my 2008 CTS Cadillac, regardless of price, can you recommend the best LED specifically for the fog lights of my car?

Great Video! I was so hesitant on asking a question on your suggestion for a LED setup for my vehicle. But after seeing your response on just about all of the comments, I'll take a chance. What LEDs would you recommend for an 08 Mercedes E350 4matic (current H7 halogens) easy DIY, plug n play setup. I've looked all over and most venders suggest easy install but once I referenced a KZfaq vid on install, I saw it required "Jerry Rigging" of cutting plastic n metal or even wires of which I'm not trying to do. I would like to do low, high beam and fog all at once. Any brand is on the table. Thanks for any input sir!!!

I'm glad you took the time to comment, We're here to help out as best we can! To be honest, The best route on your Mercedes is going to be an HID kit. That being said, Those Mercedes vehicles can be pretty picky when it comes to aftermarket lighting. Send us an email to Sales@HeadlightRevolution.com and we will go over a few options for you on your E350.

You're doing amazing job. Do bad most people are idiots and just buy whatever is cheapest or has the highest number. I even know a guy who was going for an LED bulb and I told him "You're gonna blind everybody with that" .. He told me "I know, it's awesome!"

I think you’re right I just installed an led with 4 sides in my Mercedes headlights didn’t work the light doesn’t shine far away and the lights just spread out not pointing to the road but no blind spot I hated it. I’ve used an Hid for more then 3 years and it works good but it just that I wanted to see far away that’s why I changed to LED . What can I use on my car headlights ?

LOL, I just ordered 2 sided LUXTAR® Premium Canbus bulbs and thought "damn they are Multi-Sided", then I realized he thought of "multi" as more than two rather than more than one side, and I sighed with relief 😁
