Is It Illegal to Modify the Shape of Headlights?

[LeXavier]

Traffic regulations stipulate that vehicle appearance cannot be altered arbitrarily. The shape of headlights is also part of the vehicle's appearance, and modifying headlights can be either legal or illegal. Car Headlights: Car headlights, also known as car front lights or car LED daytime running lights, serve as the eyes of a car. They not only relate to the owner's external image but are also closely linked to safe driving at night or in bad weather conditions. The use and maintenance of headlights should not be overlooked. Modification Methods: Increasing power or adding spotlights is a low-cost method, but its effectiveness is limited. Replacing a 50W headlight with a 100W one does not simply double the brightness; it only increases it slightly. Since the circuit is not designed for a 100W bulb, the corresponding increase in circuit loss will cause the voltage at both ends of the headlight to drop, leading to an increased load on the circuit and creating potential safety hazards.
