Lights Compatibility Issue

[danegoesonline]

Hi po paano ko po malalaman kung kakasya ang lights na bibilin ko sa kotse ko? Anong specs po ang hahanapin?
Kunwari po gusto ko mag upgrade to LED.

Check you car’s manual for the bulb specification chart. Silipin mo rin kung may metal clip yung headlight assembly. Yung sa akin wala kaya kailangan ko bumil ng plastic na adapter to hold the LED bulb in place.

Recommended ko Philips na LED. Plug and play lang. Ok sa reflector housing.

the owner's manual usually lists down the various light bulbs of the car, indicating the wattage and the base type.
sticking by them ensures correct fit.
sometimes, one is tempted to get the higher wattage but still same bulb base. this might result in
1. overheating and melting; and
2. non-fit because the bulb is too big.

converting from incandesdent to plug-n-play led, might result in "complications", e.g., glare. google them, po.

good luck.

Tangalin mo yung bumbilya sa socket para may sample ka

Nakaprint din sa bumbilya yung voltage at wattage

The better known bulb brands like Philips, Osram, Sylvania have lamp finder sites. Just make sure your make & model year share the same headlamps as the reference model in those tables. A bud found out that PhDM Fiestas share headlamps w/ EuDM models, not USDM.

I've had a few cracks at PlugNPlay LED replacements. Have yet to have luck come my way on longevity & reliability. Note that some units would require not just the LEDs but CANbus Cancellers, too.

I'm now back to OE,. You can opt for brighter halogens like the Philips XtremeVision.

Yet to try Philips LEDs. They should be better than those I've had. The last 1 before I swapped back to halogens was this brand...

you've "been there.. done that".
so, why did you go back to OE ?

With LEDs, keep the stock ones in the trunk. Some can intermittently, unpredictably flicker, go off & turn back on again....even w/ CANbus Cancellers. A bud who electro-tinkers shared the same. It may not be the same for all brands. For predictability & reliabilty, go simple chip-free halogens. The brighter ones have lesser burn hours, but at least you'll know when they'd go.

one of my park lights is OE incandescent. the other is LED.
eminently logical... once you hear the background story.

Anong brand ang binibili nyo para sa H1, H3, H4 bulb?

Maganda ba bosch?

[yapoy86]

Madali lang install.. hahanapan mo nga lang ng pwesto yung led driver... maganda ang ilaw ng ultinon.. hindi sabog.. ang napansin ko maliwanag ang low beam pero yung high beam medyo kapos.. pero kung light tint lang ang kotse ok na ok sya..

May bago silang labas na pang projector type housing

^an enlightened individual based on experience (from halogen to led then back to halogen)

I dont led for the form of its look nor the power saving but from the science behind light which made me stick to halogen and never switched to led

Check mo reviews ng Philips Ultinon xtreme H4.

My LED fog lights are beginning to fail, with the right light being much weaker than the left.



I think I got my money's worth anyway - these cheap generic bulbs cost 350 pesos and lasted exactly a year.

Now contemplating if I should get another set of generic bulbs or just go for the much more expensive Philips Ultinon Essential at 3.5k (10x a generic bulb).

For sure the Philips will last longer, but I doubt it'll last 10x longer (i.e. 10 years).
