What is the model of the Envision's headlights?

The model of the Envision's headlights is H7. The front headlights include low beam and high beam, both of which are LED lights; they also include turn signals and position lights. Headlight maintenance: Just like replacing the engine oil and oil filter during regular maintenance, the headlight bulbs also need to be replaced periodically. Generally, after driving 50,000 kilometers or about 2 years, the brightness of the headlight bulbs will diminish. At this point, it is best to have them inspected at a 4S shop. If there is indeed insufficient brightness, it is recommended to replace the bulbs. It is advisable to replace both sides simultaneously to avoid uneven brightness between the two sides. Introduction to car headlights: Car headlights, also known as car front headlights or car LED daytime running lights, serve as the eyes of the car. They not only relate to the external image of the car owner but are also closely linked to safe driving at night or under bad weather conditions.
As a veteran driver with twenty years of experience, the Buick Envision is my daily ride, and I'm quite familiar with car lights. Standard halogen headlight models are usually H11 for low beams, depending on the year: models from 2015-2018 mostly use H11, while high beams might be 9005. I recommend checking the owner's manual or the label on the light housing to avoid buying the wrong bulbs and wasting money. The bulb replacement steps are simple: first, turn off the engine, open the hood, locate the rear cover of the light socket, wear gloves to prevent oil contamination, pull out the old bulb, and snap in the new one. Regularly cleaning the light covers improves brightness, and I check them during annual maintenance to avoid nighttime driving hazards. Last time, I replaced them with H11 bulbs for just 15 yuan, saving on repair costs. If the lights still don't work, it could be a fuse or wiring issue—get it fixed promptly to avoid trouble.
In my auto repair shop, I often work on the Enclave, and replacing or repairing headlights is a common task. The basic model for headlights is the H11 halogen bulb for low beams, which is quite prevalent. When working on them, open the hood and check the label on the lamp socket, as there might be slight variations depending on the year. Replacing them is straightforward with a Phillips screwdriver, but be careful not to break the clips to prevent short circuits. LED upgrades are popular, but make sure to buy compatible types to avoid flickering issues. Always remember to disconnect the negative battery terminal for safety—I've seen beginners damage parts by forcing them. Also, keep an eye on bulb lifespan; it's recommended to replace them every 20,000 miles, and using branded products ensures better durability. Regularly check for loose wiring connections, and if there's rust, clean it thoroughly to extend usability.
