FAQ

Halo lights are lights arranged in a ring around the headlights themselves. You've probably seen them on some cars, such as BMWs, where they are the factory option. In some cases the effect is achieved with bulbs, while on other vehicles it's done with fiber optics. Halo Lights can be a popular upgrade to make your car or truck stand out at night. Please be aware that most of theHalo lights we sell typically have to be manually wired up to your existing wiring harness. This is because your stock vehicle did not have Halos, and there is no wiring pigtail for them on the factory harness.

HID lights can also be referred to as Xenon bulbs (though not all Xenon bulbs are HID). Some vehicle manufacturers also use Bi-Xenon headlights. Bi-Xenon means the same bulb handles the high and low beams. If you have these headlights, your projector handles both, so in short, you only need to replace one bulb to upgrade or repair the functionality of your headlight.

Yes we do. Check out our PERDE Xenon and Krypton bulbs while looking up your vehicle. These cast a brighter, white light that reflects well off the road and allows you to see further in the dark. In most cases, these only use 35 to 65 watts. Here at headlightsdepot.com, we offer a limited Lifetime Warranty on perde bulbs. That's how much we believe in this product!

HID stands for "High Intensity Discharge". These bulbs use an electric arc rather than the glowing filament in a Halogen bulb. HID headlamp bulbs do not run on low-voltage DC current like a Halogen Bulb, so they require a ballast, which controls and regulates the flow of current. This ballast will require an ignitor to light the bulb. This is either integrated directly into the bulb or as a separate unit which is occasionally part of the ballast, similar to fluorescent bulbs in your home. In a vehicle, HID bulbs tend to be much more expensive to replace than a Halogen bulb.

Your old lights probably had moisture or condensation in them too, but the older, dulled and oxidized lens makes moisture less noticeable. Now that you have those new clear lights on your nice car, all of sudden you’re really looking at them, which is completely normal. Without going into too much detail, It's a fact that condensation happens just about anywhere. If there's a temperature difference between the inside and outside of the lens, moisture will occasionally develop, and, since your Halogen headlight bulbs put out some heat, the inside of the headlight is full of warm air while the outside is cooler. This is sort of like how the front window on your car can fog up and you have to turn on the defroster vent to clear it all away: The condensation in your headlights will usually dissipate after the headlights are turned on, as the heat of the lights evaporates the moisture. Your high beams will usually produce more heat to clear any condensation more quickly.
