Can the Geely Vision use xenon headlights for low beam?
2 Answers
Geely Vision can use xenon headlights for low beam, but it requires professional modification. Advantages of modifying xenon headlights: After modification, the vehicle's lighting effect will be improved. Xenon headlights have a longer lifespan than halogen lights, and their color temperature provides higher comfort, effectively reducing driver's visual fatigue and significantly enhancing driving safety. Precautions for modifying xenon headlights: Do not install the ballast near a heat source; it can be mounted on the bumper to aid in heat dissipation. During installation, ensure the wiring of the dedicated harness is as aesthetically pleasing as possible and avoid connecting it to heat sources to prevent wire short circuits or breaks due to excessive temperature.
As someone experienced in car modifications, I believe the Geely Vision's low beam headlights can be upgraded to xenon HID lights, but caution is required. The stock setup likely uses halogen bulbs, and switching to xenon can enhance brightness and color temperature, improving nighttime visibility—sounds appealing. However, before proceeding, technical details must be considered: you'll need to install projectors to focus the beam and prevent glare for oncoming traffic, along with ballasts and voltage-matched circuits to avoid damaging the original wiring. I've seen many DIY cases where owners faced issues like faulty lighting control modules or failed annual inspections, so professional installation is advisable to sidestep risks. As an added note, if budget is tight, LED lights are a solid alternative—more energy-efficient, longer-lasting, and simpler to install than xenon.
