Bright path: Additional mounted headlight optics

Safe movement on the road gives the driver confidence and peace of mind. For comfortable and high-quality driving, the car must always be in good condition and have the best components. To improve visibility of the roadway at night and avoid a traffic accident, car owners install additional low-beam headlights.

The devices not only provide excellent visibility at night, but also make the car stylish and presentable. Also, the additional light element can be used during the day without turning on the standard headlights.

Additional low beam headlights on the car

Description of additional lighting

On the auto market you can purchase headlights of a wide variety of characteristics, types, and configurations. The cost of devices depends on the chosen model, manufacturer and luminous flux power. Additional light is represented by the following types:

• A spotlight is a source of large amounts of light. Perfect for night driving. With its help, not only the road, but also the side of the road is illuminated. The main disadvantage is the strong flow of light, which blinds oncoming drivers.
• Anti-fog lighting – ideal for use during bad weather conditions. The light is directed downwards, so heavy rain, fog or snow will not affect the ride quality. Hella fog lights are the leader in sales of this type of lighting and comply with European standards. During operation there is virtually no light scattering. The device can be installed in any position.
• High beam - an additional light source is scattered by tunnel or flood beams. This greatly improves visibility of the road and even extends to the side of the road. The tunnel beam is considered safer because it does not blind oncoming drivers.
• Low beam - allows you to move well in the dark. Headlights of this type are easy to install and function well with standard optics. Additional low beam on a car emits a cone-shaped stream of light. Although it is somewhat shorter than the others, it illuminates the roadway in front of the vehicle, providing excellent visibility.

For a stylish, high-quality and innovative lighting system, hella headlights are the perfect choice. With their help, you can emphasize the design of the car and make the appearance of the car attractive. Headlights improve the safety and comfort of movement.

Optional Universal Low/High Beam Lens GT886-7002HL

The Farplan lighting store presents additional LED low beam headlights for:

1. Combines, tractors and all types of special equipment
2. SUVs and cars/trucks
3. Motorcycle technology

LED headlights improve visibility on the road and increase the viewing angle. The brightness models are as close as possible to daylight and are characterized by a wide diffuse beam of light, thereby reducing the strain on the driver’s eyes. Low beam is also called work light, since headlights with this beam are best suited for field work.

In addition, the catalog contains models of headlights with STG, which do not dazzle oncoming drivers and thereby increase safety on the road.

Purpose

Each type of lighting device is designed for specific travel conditions. Optional low and high beam headlights increase visibility and are easy to install. They are designed to illuminate the road in bad weather, and also allow you to see the side of the road at night.

The spotlights are distinguished by the delivery of super-powerful streams of light, which is ideal for night driving. With this device, the front of the car, the road and the side of the road will be perfectly visible. The disadvantage of using this type of headlights is the bright light that can blind oncoming drivers.

Hella fog lights provide excellent illumination of the road in rain, snow and fog. The direction of the beam allows you to see the road from below, where the impact of weather conditions is minimal. Buyers can purchase round, oval, square and oblong models.

Each type of headlight has its own purpose, so it is worth deciding for what purpose the devices are installed and only then purchasing them.

Additional headlights from Hella

Hella additional low and high beam headlights are equipped with the following elements:

• installation kit;
• instructions;
• dust caps;
• light bulbs;
• wiring;
• mounting bolts;
• plugs for the rear of the headlight;
• toggle switch.

Important! When purchasing headlights from this manufacturer, you must pay attention to the certificate of conformity and the presence of an international approval mark. This way you will protect yourself from buying a fake.

Hella optional optics are available in different shapes: round, oval, square and oblong.

The principle of operation of these products is that light is reflected from a special elliptical reflector, after which it falls on a lens, which is responsible for focusing the light flux and its projection onto the surface of the roadway. Between the lens and the reflector there is a screen that regulates the amount of light. This makes Hella's optional low beam headlights completely safe for oncoming drivers.

If we talk about the best headlight models from this manufacturer, round elements called Micro-DE are especially popular.

Lamps of this model are the smallest among analogues from other companies. The body of the compact round headlights is made of heat-resistant material and equipped with convenient fasteners.

Micro-DE are fog lights that are characterized by a high level of light output, while the beam is perfectly focused, and when it is scattered, there is no loss of light.

Healthy! These headlights can also be installed to provide high and low beam lighting.

Such lighting elements are relatively expensive (about 5,300 rubles), but this money is worth paying for high-quality headlights that will illuminate the road well even in fog, rain or during a snowstorm.

The following models are also popular:

• A set of Hella Comet 450 headlights for 4,600 rubles.
• Headlights Hella FF 50 – 4,900 rubles.
• Additional lighting Hella FF 75 costing 5,200 rubles.

If we talk about a more budget option, then pay attention to the manufacturer DLAA. Despite the fact that this is Chinese lighting technology, it is of good quality and characteristics. At the same time, the world-famous manufacturer has an ISO 9001:2000 quality certificate. DLAA lamps cost from 550 rubles apiece.

Types of products and their features

There are three types of headlights:

• Halogen.
• LED.
• Xenon.

Halogen additional headlights

Each type of device differs in power, pricing policy, parameters and characteristics.

The peculiarity of halogen headlights is their affordable price and ease of use. They are widely used in the automotive industry, but have a significant drawback - a short service life. At the same time, xenon devices will last a long period of time, as they have a different functional feature. These models will cost the buyer more, but the cost is justified by the quality and attractive appearance.

LED headlights are durable, do not dazzle drivers moving in the oncoming lane, and last a long period of time. The devices are sold at an average price and fit almost all headlights.

Headlights from MTZ

The driver can install additional low beam using headlights from MTZ. The device produces a narrow beam of light that can shine over long distances. The durable housing increases the service life of the product.

Halogen headlights

A special feature of halogen headlights is the beam of light with a yellowish tint. This is a budget option that perfectly illuminates the road during precipitation without reflecting it. The device is easy to install and produces good light. Unfortunately, halogen lights can quickly fail.

Halogen headlights for cars

Xenon headlights

This type of lighting device is installed on almost any car. The beam of light is snow-white or with a faint blue tint. Since the light is brighter and the road surface is illuminated better and further, the cost of these devices is higher than halogen ones.

LED equipment

LED devices have proven themselves well in the automotive market. Users note the main advantage of using headlights - they do not blind oncoming drivers. In addition, the headlights save energy consumption and are resistant to vibration. The devices are durable, affordable, and 100% efficient and quality.

Best HID Fog Lights

Gas-discharge lamps are called xenon-filled lamps. The use of lamps of this type in fog lights has many restrictions related to compliance with Technical Regulations and traffic regulations.

Bi-xenon can only be installed in optics marked D (H for halogen lamps). If there is no D marking on the factory PTF, then, according to traffic regulations, xenon cannot be installed in headlights.

Most modern cars do not have such markings, and yet, some drivers prefer gas-discharge lamps.

Request a call back

To improve high beam, many people are faced with the question - what additional high beam headlights to choose? Xenon, LED or classic halogen high beam?

In this article I will try to talk about the advantages of all high beam headlights for SUVs, trucks, special equipment or cars, so that you can choose the ones that are right for you.

As with choosing any product, choosing high beam headlights is a compromise between price and quality of lighting. I'm not talking here about the quality of the product itself, because... We supply only high-quality headlights to our customers, and I’m talking specifically about the quality (brightness) of the luminous flux.

Where can high beam headlights be used?

To improve the quality of light, additional headlights can be installed on prepared expedition SUVs, rally cars, as well as trucks and cars. Additional high beams are also installed on any special equipment. High beam headlights are especially necessary for agricultural machinery, road repair, and construction equipment.

Where to install additional high beams

Unlike additional fog lights, high beams can be installed both on the bumper and on the roof, there are no restrictions. When installing additional high-beam headlights on the roof or expeditionary trunk, you can get additional effect on off-road conditions by reducing the length of shadows, but this is a matter of habit. The headlights mounted at the level of the bumper shine just as wonderfully.

Which high beam headlights should you choose?

Now on the Russian market of additional headlights there are three different types of headlights based on the light source: Wesem halogen headlights, LED headlights and beams, and LOYO xenon driving lights. All products are of high quality and when choosing headlights, you should focus on the price and the light source in the headlight - xenon, halogen and LEDs. I'll tell you more about this.

WESEM halogen headlights

WESEM halogen headlights for H3 lamps have long established themselves on the Russian market as a very high-quality and reliable product. These headlights are not afraid of either moisture or dust. Their degree of protection corresponds to the IP 66 standard, i.e. protection from heavy rain and directed jets of water. It is not recommended to place these lights on a submarine or submerge them underwater. When installing WESEM high beam headlights on the roof, you don’t have to worry about them at all.

The luminous flux of WESEM headlights is determined by the installed lamp and, with a standard power of 55 W, is approximately 1300 Lumens, which is quite sufficient for high-quality road illumination. The shape of the beam of high beam headlights is a beam that illuminates, depending on the model, at a distance of 100 to 300 meters. It is worth remembering that the size of halogen headlights directly affects the quality of light. The larger the reflector area, the denser the light fill.

The entire WESEM catalog High beam.

We also have excellent chrome-plated fog lights and high-beam headlights for installation on kengurin.

I recommend the following Wesem high beam headlights:

Xenon high beam headlights

Xenon headlights are truly the leader among high beam headlights. We have 2 wonderful models with a diameter of 220 and 280 mm in a round case. The xenon ignition units have already been removed inside the headlights; all that remains is to connect the xenon headlights to a 12 Volt voltage source. The luminous flux from xenon headlights is 2800-3500 lumens (for the 280 mm model, 55 watts), and the light range of xenon headlights is 400-700 meters.

LOYO xenon high beam headlights are also protected from moisture and dust according to IP66 class. In our opinion, xenon headlights are the best choice for installation on the bumper or bumper of an SUV, as well as for trucks.

LED headlights and high beams

And finally, about the most important thing - LED high-beam headlights. Additional LED headlights are considered professional lighting. LED headlights can be installed on any equipment with the most severe operating conditions.

The LED headlights are rated IP67, which means they are completely protected from dust and protected from short-term immersion in water.

Also, LED optics, due to their design, are protected from vibration loads much better than xenon and halogen headlights. LED high beam headlights are successfully used on quarry equipment, excavators, dump trucks, as well as on road and agricultural equipment.

Shape of LED headlights.

LED driving lights can be made either as classic headlights in a rectangular or round body, or in the form of LED beams that are installed on the roof or bumper.

You can see all the classic LED headlights here!

It is also possible to install additional high beams in the form of an LED beam chandelier on the roof of an SUV , special equipment or truck. The choice of LED roof beams is very large and you should focus primarily on size and power. LED roof beams come in both diodes arranged in one row - single-row LED beams, and double-row LED high beam chandeliers.

LED beam mounts are included and are located along the edges or bottom of the beam, depending on the model. More details about the fastening can be found in the drawing in the product card.

Best Selling 2 Row LED Roof Beams:

Single-row beams have the advantage that they are lower in height and, when installed on the roof, offer less resistance to the flow of incoming air. Single-row thin LED headlights are made using the most powerful and economical CREE (USA) LED chips.

The most popular models of narrow LED beams of the MASTER SLIM series.

Criteria for selecting additional headlights

The main criteria for choosing lighting devices are:

• The product must be equipped with a sealed, durable case, have thick glass and reliable fasteners.
• It is recommended to buy dismountable headlights so that you can change the lamp yourself in the future.
• A high-quality headlight should be equipped with an adjustment mechanism.
• The headlight power should not be more than 50-60 W.

Choosing the right headlights is quite difficult, so you should study the issue carefully and approach this procedure responsibly. It is recommended not to save on this equipment, as this may lead to the purchase of low-quality products that will fail in the shortest possible period of time.

How to install and connect yourself?

To install the headlights yourself, you must complete the following steps:

• The first step is to remove the optical element from the headlight housing. This is done to preserve the glass in order to avoid damage during the installation process.
• Next, the installation location of the headlights is marked (everything should be symmetrical) and holes are drilled, which are recommended to be treated with anti-corrosive.
• After installing the headlight housing, the relay is attached (contacts point down).
• The next step is to install the switch and make the electrical connection. This process is carried out through separate fuses to the relay. Output No. 85 must be connected to the battery positive via the ignition switch contact or with a separate wire from the battery. Output No. 87 is connected to ground anywhere.
• The installation stage is completed by connecting the positive terminal to the battery and securing the connecting wires.

The headlight can only be turned on when assembled. Finally, the device is adjusted.

Recommendations

An equally important question is what are daytime running lights on a car? With the help of this type of lighting devices, the car stands out noticeably on the road, and as a result, the number of accidents is reduced. These include high and low beam headlights, fog devices and independent front lighting devices.

Philips X-treme Vision+130% H7

Every driver faces the problem of replacing headlight lighting. Then the question arises, which h7 low beam lamps are the best? An individual approach will help solve this problem. Among a wide range of lamps, it is possible to choose the desired type of device, select the right characteristics and, based on the parameters, make a choice. The cost of products plays an important role in this process.

Adjusting headlights with your own hands is a long and painstaking process that requires careful preparation and concentration of the master. You can carry out the process using a diagram that is drawn on a flat wall (the car is placed perpendicular to it). For quality work, you need to take into account the load capacity of the machine and measure the tire pressure.

If you need to replace the Ford Focus 3 low beam lamp, then it is better to consider several lamp options before starting work. This car model is equipped with lens headlights and lenses. The most common and successful product models are Philips H7, Philips X-treme Vision+100%, Bosch Blue Vision Ultra and IPF H11 XY64-2400K. Each of them has proven itself well and received positive customer reviews.

When buying taillights for a Niva, the car owner should focus on the power of the device, color temperature and the material from which the housing is made. It is best to purchase headlights with LED lamps; they will provide improved illumination over a long distance.
