True it's a hositile enviroment, that's why my car has got through three if not four sets of halogen headlight bulbs in 5 years. Bog standard ones, not "high brightness" ones. Tried a pair of those, better light but only lasted a month before literally exploding. Complained and got a refund. Design fault IMHO, sodding big solenoids (you can hear them operate inside the car) that moves a shutter to produce the dip/main beam. If there is one thing halogen bulbs don't like it's being thwacked when lit. and energy saving is not an issue..... Don't think there is a lot in it between halogen and LED anyway. ... but then again fannies just love to replace all their cheap bulbs with expensive led lights... I would if they shoved out more light than halogen. ... and they love all those illegal colours....and they bugger up my eyesight Not getting confused with HID and "projector" fittings are you? They were and still are awful. It says something when the, to be legal, fitting has to have automatic leveling and washers. The optics produced colour fringing and a very intense point source. LED on the other tend to be a much larger source without colour fringing. you can only adjust my headlight aim up or down....quality |
