Can the high beam position of the new Lingpai be modified to accommodate a lens?
3 Answers
New Lingpai high beam position can be modified to accommodate a lens. When driving at night, interior lights should not be turned on because they can severely affect the driver's visibility and compromise driving safety. Theoretical basis: When driving at night with interior lights on, the brightness inside the car is much higher than outside. In this situation, the windshield acts more like a mirror for the driver, significantly reducing its light-transmitting effect. Precautions: When driving at night under conditions of no street lights, poor illumination, or low visibility due to fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, vehicles should turn on headlights, position lights, and taillights.
The space for the high beam position in the new Lingpai model is generally sufficient for lens modification, but careful measurement is required before proceeding. Due to the compact design of the factory headlights, adding a lens requires consideration of the lens size and thermal management. Standard 2.5 or 3-inch lenses usually fit well, but larger sizes may cause housing deformation or heat dissipation issues. I recommend first removing the headlight cover to inspect the internal available space. With professional tools, precise drilling and fixing can be achieved. After modification, the light becomes more focused, enhancing nighttime driving safety, but it's essential to test if the light axis is misaligned to avoid glare. It's best to have an experienced technician perform the operation, as DIY carries higher risks. Remember to choose a lens model with good dustproof and waterproof features to prevent future water ingress or dust accumulation that could lead to malfunctions. Regular maintenance is also crucial to ensure stable lighting performance.
My friend's Lingpai has been modified with lenses, and he said that modifying the high beam position is completely feasible. There's enough space; he used 3-inch lenses without encountering significant obstacles. The modification was done at a professional shop and took about half a day. After the modification, the headlights became brighter, providing clearer visibility, especially making driving on rainy nights more reassuring. However, I reminded him to pay attention to the compatibility of the lenses, as some low-quality products generate excessive heat, affecting their lifespan. I suggested checking online tutorials or consulting experienced drivers first. I haven't personally modified it, but after inspecting the Lingpai's headlight assembly, I feel there's ample space and the operation isn't difficult. Keeping the modification cost under a thousand is reasonable, and don't opt for cheap products to save money, as it might backfire. In short, if the goal is to improve lighting, modifying the lenses is worth trying, but don't rush into it.
