How do you know when it’s time to upgrade headlights? Really, it comes down to personal preference, but you may notice some signals that it’s time to modify your headlights.
When Should You Upgrade Headlights?
- Having trouble seeing while driving at night
- Your headlamp housing is yellowed/hazy as opposed to clear
- Your headlights are constantly burning out
- You simply don’t like the look of your current headlights
- You want to change the color of your headlights
When I recently upgraded my headlights, it was because I was unable to see on dark roads at night. My car was only two years old, yet the headlights only emitted enough light to see a short distance in front of me. As I lived close to the mountains, I would frequently see deer and elk in the middle of the road. It seemed like there were frequent collisions with wildlife in the mountains. As an avid outdoorsman, I spend a lot of time in the mountains and wanted to ensure that I never had any unwanted “run-ins” with any animals. I researched the cost of installing factory fog lights at a local dealership, but that would have cost me more than $500. So, I decided that, for my own safety, I should upgrade to a brighter beam. This has not only changed the look of my car but has also helped me to drive more comfortably at night. I decided to start this website to help others who were considering purchasing new lights for their car.
