Led Headlights

[mostcorey95]

So have been looking at led headlight bulbs for my tradesman. Debating between aux beam, auxito, lasfit or rpm 956 bulbs. Does anyone have experience with them working or not working well for the housing.

Have you thought about installing some led housing off of a Laramie trim Ram? It seems like all the retrofit led bulbs scatter light all over the place. It sucks for oncoming traffic. Especially those in lower height vehicles. Not trying to be a jerk, but driving around here is miserable at night with people running led bulbs and light bars even.

Its usually only the cheap amazon bulbs that scatter light. good bulbs will not be any worse than the oem led reflectors and about 1200$ cheaper…. Check out headlight revolution they have some great videos explaining this.

To the OP id look on headlight revolutions sight they have some great options tailored to the 4.5 gen rams

I bought diode dynamics made in the USA, they have a nice cutoff in the halogen housing. I had the wife take for a ride and I came the other direction in her vehicle to assure my alignment was not blinding along with scatter as mentioned.

No was looking at them and good bulbs.

I use gtr lighting low and high beam. I do have a set of the reflector led housings going in next week, but those led bulbs have been fantastic.

Yeah I was talking to them about the ones I posed as well. As they stated they are all good options they all have a cut out and adjustment. I have used rpm on my 4th gen and aux beam auxito seems to be the knock off.

Hikari is another great brand that I use regularly……..being colorblind I have limited depth perception at night as a result of it. Also, it doesnt matter what quality of halogen bulb I used, they all limited my peripheral vision and made colors hard to distinguish due to the Kelvin scale (halogen bulbs are typically 2700-3000 kelvin, vs. 6000 kelvin for LED). For those reasons, I am a huge supporter of LED bulbs. The color temperature of the LED gives me all of my depth perception back. I have LED bulbs in all my vehicles and motorcycles and NEVER get flashed. Then again, be respectful and re-aim your bulbs after. I do the old measure the height of the center point of the bulb, transfer it onto your garage door or a wall, mark 2” below that, back up 25’ and make that mark your beam cutoff.
