Is Filing Required When Changing Halogen to LED Lights?
1 Answers
Changing car lights from halogen to LED requires filing. Moreover, the modification of car lights must be filed and approved before passing the annual inspection. If the vehicle's taillight modification is done without filing and the vehicle is driven on the road directly, the traffic police may issue a warning and impose a fine along with penalty points. According to the relevant provisions of the current "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," any changes to the body color, model, performance, purpose, and structure of a licensed motor vehicle, as well as the replacement of the frame, body, or engine, must be reported to the vehicle management office for modification registration. The required documents for filing include the identity proof of the motor vehicle owner, which is the owner's ID card or temporary residence permit (valid for at least one year). For company vehicles, the "Organization Code Certificate," official seal, and IC card are required. Other necessary documents include the motor vehicle origin proof such as the purchase invoice (first and fourth copies), the motor vehicle's complete vehicle factory qualification certificate or import motor vehicle import certificate, the vehicle purchase tax payment certificate or tax exemption certificate, the motor vehicle traffic accident liability compulsory insurance certificate, and other proofs and certificates that should be submitted during motor vehicle registration as stipulated by laws and administrative regulations.
