Which automotive light bulb do I need for my vehicle?
Halogen bulbs, xenon HID and LED bulbs are the three main types of automotive bulbs on the market. Halogen bulbs are the most popular as they are affordable and provide sufficient brightness for headlights, fog, and interior lights. However, they are not as bright or as long-lasting as other car light types. HID bulbs provide a whiter and brighter light than halogen and are highly effective as headlight bulbs. However, they are more expensive and may not be suitable for all vehicles. Finally, LED bulbs are known for their energy efficiency, long lifespan, and brightness. They are popular for headlights, taillights, brake lights, and turn signals. While they may be more expensive upfront, they provide great long-term cost savings.
Are automotive light bulbs universal?
No, car light bulbs come in various shapes, sizes, and specifications to fit different vehicles. It’s important to refer to your vehicle’s manual to find the right bulb type for your specific vehicle.
