Whether a car can pass the annual inspection after replacing the headlights with LED ones depends on the specifications and performance of the modified headlights. If the modified headlights meet the national requirements in terms of color temperature, brightness, and beam angle, which affect driving safety, they can pass the annual inspection. Two main aspects are checked: Whether the brightness meets the requirements, meaning the brightness must not be less than 1400 lumens. Whether the beam angle is compliant, as long as the high and low beam angles are normal. Essentially, as long as the modified LED headlights do not affect driving safety, the car can pass the annual inspection smoothly. Relevant regulations for car annual inspections: Vehicles that fail the annual inspection must be repaired within a specified time limit. If they still fail after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate their license plates and prohibit them from continuing to drive. Vehicles that do not undergo the annual inspection without reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to drive on the road or transfer ownership. Vehicles that meet the scrapping conditions or exceed the specified service life will not be inspected, and their license plates will be revoked, their records deleted, and they will be scrapped.

How to Identify China VI Emission Standard?

There are two methods to identify the China VI emission standard: 1. Check the vehicle conformity certificate: The vehicle's conformity certificate can only be viewed after taking delivery of the car, so this method is not very practical. 2. Check environmental protection information: (1) First, locate the vehicle nameplate near the B-pillar on the passenger side. It contains basic vehicle information. Note down two crucial details: the vehicle model number and the engine model number. Then, search online by opening the 'Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Information Disclosure Website' and enter the engine model number to search for the corresponding vehicle model number. (2) Once the model numbers match, you can view detailed information. The emission standard will be clearly stated in the information section.

How long can a paint protection film normally last?

There are currently three popular materials used for paint protection film on the market: PVC, TPH (a softened version of PVC), and TPU. 2. Each of these three types of paint protection film has its own advantages and disadvantages. PVC material tends to yellow and harden, leaving a lot of adhesive residue when removed, typically lasting about half a year; TPH is softer and more easily damaged, with a lifespan of 1-2 years; TPU is durable, resistant to yellowing, and has strong self-healing capabilities, lasting 5-10 years.
