We recently switched from HID to LED Low Beam headlight bulbs...
Lasfit LED Pro H11 Bulbs for the Toyota 4Runner 2014-2021
amzn.to/3tnDk0j
Let's do a quick comparison of the Low Beam Headlight Bulb Options out there - Halogen, HID, and LED. For our 2015 4Runner OEM headlights weren't cutting it, and our HID bulbs aren't made anymore... Enter the Lasfit LED Pro H11 Bulbs...
I plan to do a follow-up video on this after running these bulbs for a while. So, please be sure to put any questions below.
Cheers!

Awesome video! Thanks for letting be apart of it! LASFIT really made a difference when driving country roads at night!

Any issues with these lights

Well done!

HID gets over 500F , halogen over 700F, leds you’d be hard pressed to see temps over 300F on any part of it.

Coming from someone who use to have an HID retrofit and now have morimoto led headlights. The LED output brightness is no were near the HID retrofit i had plus not to mention that cool looking blue cut off line.

Same here. The morimotos were nowhere near my XenonDepot HID, for the same price. Not sure it these Lasfits are different, but they are also twice the wattage and twice the heat output.

lol is that Boerne lake? Stumbled upon this as my wifey just snagged an off-road and im disappointed by the fact that HIDs arent standard. My 06 TSX was standard with them and after 11 years im still on the same bulbs *knock on wood*.

How does the downrange illumination compare? I had the Xenon Depot HID kit on my 2016 Trail Premium, and loved them. The LC has LEDs as stock, and while brighter, they just don't seem to have as much throw. Not really comparable, as they are completely different housings. Worse, the horizontal cut-off with the LC leaves pitch black beyond that point in rolling hills. I switch on the Baja Design Squadron-R Pros just to see where I'm going! The HIDs in the 4Runner were much better for that type of terrain. Since you had both together to compare on the same vehicle, I thought you might have some thoughts.

So, downrange is hard for me to quantify for 2 reasons: 1) I haven't had a chance to get these out on straight/flat roads. 2) My lights are angled down a bit too much right now since my swing arms, gas can, hi-lift, and fridge are not weighing down the rear end at the moment. Our 4Runner is in "daily driver mode" right now. So, I need to do a follow up video on how the long range throw is once I get some time. I had pretty big ambitions for putting information in this video, but my wife's 40th birthday, sneaking her parents into town, then sneaking her brother into town, a promotion at work, my best friend's wedding, weather, and repairs to the 4Runner all hindered my plans. February was a ridiculously busy month for me. :)

@@TrailorSailYT Thanks for the reply. I was just curious, since I've seen comments on traditional round auxiliary driving lights having more throw vs the LED equivalent. Definitely understand life being busy. Fall is my favorite time to travel, and we have our second daughter's wedding in October. So much for planning much this year...

Really eyeballing these after reading some reviews but still a little skeptical long term. I went to go look for your follow-up but seems like 10 months is still to short lol. Anyways, how are they holding up as of right now. Any complaints or things you noticed that aren't so good such as light quality fading/dimming, fans sounding weird, etc.

@TrailorSailYT Жыл бұрын

Terribly sorry about the lack of follow up. I am hoping to getting back into making videos again soon, but the day job has been brutal the past year. To sum things up: Still no complaints. Pattern is still the same. No noticeable fade - even under extreme temperatures. Honestly, I still feel like this is one of the simplest and cost effective upgrades for the 4Runners that don't already have LED Lighting.

Do you have any fogging issues in the headlight housing after changing the gray dust cap with the lasfit?

How about the high beams?

The problem with LED bulbs in 4Runner housings is they just won’t hold up. Do to the heat especially down here in Texas heat. If they would make some type of heat pipe or remote head exchanger,, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

@crs1474 5 күн бұрын

Not sure about that. I’ve had LED bulbs in my stock projector housing which is inside a dust cover all through the lower western states (AZ, NM, TX, LA) for nearly 3 years and they’ve held up pretty well.

The HID had more glare then the Led.

I hate projectors, they were a good idea in theory, but I’ve yet to drive a vehicle with projectors and not be disappointed by how terrible they lights preform.
