Can Halogen Lights Be Directly Replaced with LED?

[Foster]

To replace halogen lights with LED lights, the entire LED light assembly needs to be replaced. Simply changing the bulb is ineffective. Relevant details are as follows: 1. If the original vehicle does not have a lens, it is recommended not to modify the lights. Not only will the post-modification effect be minimal, but it may also cause driver glare, impair visibility, and pose significant safety risks. LED lights do not focus properly, so a lens must be installed for proper focus. 2. The original vehicle is designed for halogen lights, and the focal points of the reflector bowl and lens differ. Therefore, after modifying some vehicles with LED lights, the lighting may either be uneven or form light beams. Additionally, LED light circuits generate considerable heat, making heat dissipation another issue. 3. If the modified LED lights do not meet national requirements, they may fail the annual inspection. If you are determined to proceed with the modification, it must be done at a professional auto repair shop or 4S store. Small roadside shops may easily encounter issues during installation.
