Will the other party be fully liable for compensating modified headlights?

No, the insurance company will only compensate for the original factory assembly, as modified parts are not covered under the claim. Precautions for modifying car headlights are as follows: 1. First, check the lighting configuration: It's essential to understand the lighting configuration clearly. Even for the same car model, the headlights may differ depending on the trim level. Generally, lower trims come with halogen lights, while higher trims may feature xenon or LED headlights. 2. Check if the original car has a lens: Taking the original halogen lights as an example, if they come without a lens and only have a reflector bowl, modifications will require drilling holes in the original reflector bowl for installation. For halogen lights with a lens, since the new xenon headlights and the old lens may not match, scattering of light can occur. To avoid this, it is recommended to replace the old lens with a new xenon bi-xenon lens and use a dedicated bracket for installation.
