Does Replacing the Headlights Affect Used Car Sales?

Replacing the headlights does not affect used car sales. Here are specific details about used cars: 1. Definition: A used car with replaced headlights does not become an accident car. An accident car refers to a vehicle whose structural components or frame have been stretched, deformed, or damaged due to a collision. As long as the body's covering parts are damaged without affecting the structural components, it will not compromise driving safety. 2. Annual Inspection: Regarding the requirements for headlights during annual inspections, issues such as excessively high color temperature, scattered light sources, or insufficient brightness will cause the car to fail the inspection. In some cases, if the beam angle exceeds the standard (e.g., one high and one low beam), it is usually due to improper installation. Therefore, it is advisable to have the replacement done by a professional and experienced service center.
