H4 LED Headlight Bulb Conversion Kit, Complete High and Low Beams, PAIR will convert your Halogen H4s to a lighting source that is more reliable, 3X brighter, and draws up to 80% less current too! Keep your H4 housings, and just install this kit for a huge upgrade!
While H4s are a tremendous upgrade over
regular sealed beams, HID's are even more dramatic! This kit does NOT
include the actual H4 housings, you need to already have those, or
purchase them separately!
Here at ACN we carry 3 levels of lights.
- H4s with Halogen Bulbs (Good; Nice upgrade)
- H4s with LED's (Better; Super easy installation, most expensive)
- H4s with HID (High Intensity Discharge) (Best: Inexpensive, light color choices, but 2 hour installation)
The stock headlights had a combined bulb and housing. When the bulb burned out, you had to replace both. You can get those lights at any FLAPS, which is why we don't bother carrying them.
The H4 Housing is an upgrade because when the bulb burns out, you keep the housing and replace just the bulb. H4 is a bulb "Style", in that it's a combined bulb and housing. H4s have a vastly superior quality on the glass and reflector than the throwaway incandescent bulbs at the FLAPS.
For lighting, the stock bulb is around 35W. Most H4 Halogens use a 50 or 55W bulb, and are almost 2x as bright as the stock 35W. HID and LEDs are a LOT more efficient than either stock or Halogen, so a 30W LED or HID is about 3x brighter than stock. Both HID and LED will draw a LOT less electrical current (power draw), despite having a lot more light.
Most of you are asking yourself at this point, "If I want a headlight upgrade, which is right for me?".
Here are our recommendations!
If you are poor yet want better lights, get Halogen H4s. This is still a huge upgrade over stock, with about 2x the light output.
HID's are fantastic, but there is a bit of electrical and mechanical work to complete the conversion. HID's offer the best lighting, are relatively cheap, but they do take a couple hours to complete the conversion; ie: running new wires, a little drilling, etc. The second thing to know about HIDs is that they take 30 seconds to "warm up". We have not found this to be an issue at all, just be aware of it. HID's also have several options for "Color", which is not the case for Halogen nor LED.
LED's are the way to go if you want better lighting, but don't feel comfortable with a "conversion". With LED's it's as easy as changing a headlight! You can do both headlights in 15 minutes. Furthermore, LEDs are "instant on", with no warm up required! But LED's cost the most of the 3 H4 options out there.
Note that with the LEDs and HIDs, the housing must be purchased in addition to the kit.
The only other thing you need to be aware of is that with any headlight conversion you'll need to re-align your headlights for proper aiming when you are finished, for the safety of yourself and the cars approaching you.
