Thank you for this video and explanation

Hi, I plan to upgrade hid to led, just wondering the ballast connector will heating or not, because I have burn the connector before, that time still using hid. btw my car is handa Crz

Wow...nice share..tq bro👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hi everyone. So, this means that the led bulb still needs the ballast?

Hey my friend I have old Lexus rx 330 HID I want to change LED please let me know what brand I can use

Bro anh10 is using which one?TQ

bro, tak payah modify ape2 ye kalau tukar led yang ni? heard that if we wanna change to led, we need to modify

You mentioned at 3:41 that you can turn the bulb to make sure the focus is correct. In your experience with this bulb, how do you orientate the bulb to get the best focus or in your opinion, it's not important how you turn the bulb?

@TCsAnythingGoes

Жыл бұрын

Depends largely on your reflector/projector. For my inspira, the best focus I get is when the bulb is vertical. For my Alphard hi-beam, its slanting 45 degree towards the center. For the Alphard main beam (projector), it didn't make any difference whichever angle i twist it.

Hi TC, what’s your Headlamp Type on this Alphard? Was it Reflector or Projector type? Thanks.

Hi bro TC's, I had install same brand LED like your that purchased from shoope. Mine are D2S type. But after installed the light output dimmer than my HID stock. Had adjust the focusing but not much help Can you advise it?

That’s the whole scam that “just” replacing hid bulbs with led bulbs is. The majority of the time - you’re simply getting an incorrect beam pattern because it’s impossible for them to place the leds in the same location as the center of the hid bulb…. So Here’s what you should try: 1) if you have hazy or cloudy external plastic housings the. Go to headlight restoration pro - and - sand polish coat your lights. 2) Consider doing a new projector retrofit such as morimoto d2s 5.0 or if you want to go LED there’s a morimoto and nhk options. The main idea is to get a projector that is designed FOR led from the start. There are no shortcuts Every single time we get new lighting upgrades on the market - same bs games where people try to scam others into buying cheap upgrades that most often do not work. It’s the same cycle every 5-10 years… Lightwekz has all sorts of retrofit options… go there

Hello, What is the difference between D2S D2R vs D4S D4R? I have a 2007 Lexus IS250, which one should I order for low beam headlights? Thanks

Size, mount and wattage use. Choose the same one as what you have in order to avoid any complication. Your bulb size should be a D4S based on a short google search I did.

Why do my LED's come on for a second but then shut off? I got LED's exactly like yours in this video that include a connector that plugs directly into the vehicles D2S connector. Is the vehicles D2S HID ballast putting out too high voltage to work with LED? DO I need to remove the ballast somehow?

Does your car have AFS? After I installed this D4S LED bulb, my car's AFS sign keeps flashing.

@TCsAnythingGoes

Жыл бұрын

Yes, my car has AFS. If its flashing there is 3 possibilities:- - you might have accidentally pop the projector out of the socket mount ( to verify, just rock the projector and if its loose then its out. Just pop it back in.) - either the wiring or a socket is blocking the movement of the projector, check and verify that nothing is stuck - new bulb is too heavy (i had this issue last time when I just got the car and it came with some very heavy LEDs that everytime i go over a speedbump, it gives me the AFS flashing light) Let me know if this helps.

@@hal752 4300k - yellowish white. 6000k - white. The output color is determined by these kelvin units. Higher = whiter to blueish. I would stay at 6000k for best performance in dry and wet conditions. If you have ever driven a car with 8000k bulbs in the night rain, you will understand that the light will just bounce off the water surface making the road really dim and dangerous to drive. As to whether LEDs are brighter or not, you have to see the lumens value. And LEDs have various lumens depending on the brand, design, chip used and etc. So a cheap LED may even be dimmer that HIDs and there are LEDs that outperforms HIDs. As to the beam pattern, it also depends on the housing of the light and the design of the LEDs. If the housing is designed for HID, obviously it will work very well with HIDs. Based on my tryouts of LEDs few years back VS now...... LEDs have definitely improved vastly and even surpassed HID in terms of performance and efficiency. Few years back, I tried moving to LEDs and I returned it after just one drive with the LED (not even a cheap LED). As recent as this year itself, I tried cheap LED (Brand C6) on a projector housing meant for halogen and the light output was worst than halogen. Then I tried a more expensive brand (Brand Novsight) in the same housing and the light output and beam pattern definitely surpasses even the HID in my Alphard. My point is, give it a try. LEDs aren't as terrible as it used to be anymore.

@hal752

Жыл бұрын

I agree there not terrible however on my car I've found that d3s xenon bulbs at around 5000k provide a higher lumin rating at 10 meters compared to a LED. I tested against a pair of bull vision LEDs and they miss the hot spot that xenons offer which is in turn used in high beams. Xenon light in my car has further range than the LED. Personally it would say if the xenon was 100 percent the Led would be around 85.
