If you want to trade your old factory headlights for a new one, you should consider getting an LED headlight. Not only is it brighter and more energy-efficient, it is long-lasting, too. When searching for a pair of new headlights, however, you may encounter a number of terms that may confuse you. Like many other car accessories, headlights also have their own key terminologies. Knowing what these terminologies are will help you determine exactly what sort of headlights you should be looking for.
LED Headlight Terminologies
1. LED
LED means light emitting diode. Brighter and tougher, LED headlights are usually made into a strip by a row of single LED lights. This row of lights serves as DRLS or a decorative lighting highlight.
2. Black headlights
Black headlights refer to a custom headlamp assembly or housing with a noticeably black background. This black background is quite visible through the clear lens and the size and quantity of lighting elements this headlamp kit has determine how much "black" it can show.
3. Chrome headlights
Chrome headlights refer to another type of custom headlamp housing. Instead of black, this kit has a chrome background.
4. Combined low/high beam
A "combined low/high" beam headlamp assembly uses one light bulb per side. As the name indicates, that one light bulb generates both the high beam and low beam. With this setup, this means your car will have a total of only two headlight bulbs.
5. H4 headlight
H4 headlight is the first dual-filament halogen bulb to produce both a low and a high beam. It is widely used in many parts of the world, except in the United States, where the use of this type of headlight is not allowed for automotive purposes.
6. Custom assembly
When you say "custom assembly," your headlamp kit will contain design or lighting elements that do not originally come with the factory headlamp. Some of the design and lighting elements that you can customise are the colour or background (as in the case of chrome and black headlights) and the type of lighting (whether halo or LED lights).
7. DRL
DRL refers to "daytime running lights." DRLs are illuminated every time the car's engine is running. So even if it still bright outside, the lights are on. However, unlike typical headlights, they do not light up the road. Rather, they make the car more visible.
8. Factory headlamp assembly
A "replacement factory headlamp assembly" is similar to the car's original headlamp in terms of appearance and fitment.
It pays to be informed when shopping for a headlight kit for your car. As such, make sure to keep these key headlight terminologies in mind to have a better shopping experience.
