Do I need to file a record with the vehicle management office for headlight modification?

Modifying headlights requires filing a record with the vehicle management office. Without approval from the traffic management department, the modified vehicle cannot be driven on the road or pass the annual inspection. Basic requirements for headlight modification: The low beam must not be less than 1050 lumens, and the high beam must not be less than 1450 lumens. Scattered light is prohibited. The best solution for headlight modification is to add a bi-xenon lens, which ensures the modified light does not cause glare or scatter, and does not affect others' safe driving. Since the height of each car varies, it is necessary to adjust the light angle properly to avoid compromising others' safe driving. Precautions for headlight modification: Halogen lamps are essentially a special type of incandescent lamp, operating on the principle that a resistor emits heat when an electric current passes through it. When the temperature is sufficiently high, it emits blackbody radiation within the visible light spectrum. There are generally two types of halogen lamps: iodine tungsten lamps and bromine tungsten lamps. When an incandescent lamp is lit, although the filament temperature does not exceed the melting or boiling point of tungsten, a small amount of tungsten still evaporates at high temperatures. After modifying a car's headlights to xenon, they will continue to function even when submerged in water and will not crack due to immersion or moisture.
