All vehicles that come equipped with halogen headlight bulbs can be upgraded to LED conversion. The primary benefit is a substantial improvement in road illumination, leading to enhanced safety during nighttime driving.
We offer three series of LED performance bulbs: T2, X1, and X2. Our LED bulbs are designed to be "plug-n-play" and come with bulb mounting collars that fit into the same socket and mate with the same wiring connectors as your original halogen bulbs. Installing them is easy.
Please note that the X1 Series bulb base is larger and may occupy more space in your headlamp assembly. On the other hand, the T2 Series, with its innovative aluminum fin cooling system, provides better fitment thanks to its heat sink design. For applications with limited space or plastic dust caps, we suggest using the T2 Series.
This guide will walk you through the steps on how to install a LED Conversion Kit.
Step 1: Determine the Bulb Type for Your Headlight or Fog Light
Your car or truck comes with a designated bulb size/type installed at the factory, following a universally recognized standard for identification. This standard is consistent across the automotive industry, assigning a unique code number to each bulb type.
Find the perfect bulbs for your car using our Year/Make/Model Search. As a safety measure, we advise referring to your vehicle's owner's manual to verify the headlight bulb size.

Step 2: Choose the LED Bulbs That Suit Your Needs the Best
To dissipate heat from LED headlight bulbs with standard brightness, specially designed copper and aluminum "heat sinks" are utilized. These heat sink materials can take the form of flexible braided ribbons or rigid fins arranged in a radial pattern. When we refer to "standard brightness," we are describing the level of luminosity produced by most LED headlight bulbs. It is important to note that this brightness is more intense than that of any halogen headlight bulb. LED bulbs with higher output incorporate small cooling fans into the base of the lighting assembly. These fans draw air over the built-in heat sinks and expel it through strategically placed vents. Technological advancements have also resulted in the development of energy-efficient fans that effectively cool the bulbs, providing a lifespan equal to or greater than the bulbs themselves.

STEP 3: Choose the Required Wire Harness
If you're dealing with CANbus or PWM system-related problems in newer vehicles, you might require an additional harness. Take a look at this straightforward guide to help you choose the right harness for your LED light conversion needs.
Step 4: Find and Remove the Halogen Bulb
Some modern vehicles have limited space under the hood, which means you need to remove the entire headlight assembly just to change a bulb. In some cases, removing the headlight assembly requires unbolting and moving forward the front bumper cover for clearance.

Step 5: Installing the LED Bulb
Caution:
The majority of LED Headlight Conversions are as simple as replacing your stock bulb. Only 10% of the applications require optional steps.
STEP 6: Adjust Headlight Aiming
Ensure optimal visibility on the road by powering up your headlights and testing your LED lights. Take a moment to check the aiming of your headlights to avoid blinding other drivers with their brightness. If necessary, adjust the position of the headlights using the headlight alignment screws. For detailed instructions on how to adjust the aiming of your headlights, consult your owner's manual.
