    Thanks for showing the inside of the headlamp assembly. I dropped the original halogen bulb inside of there accidentally and I am at a crossroad between trying to fish for it somehow with my meaty hands, or removing just enough of the bumper to be able to remove the entire headlamp assembly as a unit and rattling it out.

    Great video and instructions. I purchased the bulbs from the link and was able to do the installation. I found that the driver's side was actually more difficult due to more limited visibility than the passenger side. I flipped the lights on after installing each side to make sure that the LEDs were working before putting in the heat sink into the enclosure and closing the dust cover.

    I ordered these bulbs and put them in last night. Easy to install, but driving at 5:45 AM this morning I felt they provided more peripheral lighting, but less light directly ahead. When I finally merged onto interstate, I could see the lights from the car behind me lighting up the road better than my lights. Maybe a brighter bulb would work better, or a HID. Any Suggestions would be appreciated. I put the halogens back in tonight for my morning commute. These bulbs look great, but do not seem to throw enough light for me.

    • @TheLawnEngineer
      @TheLawnEngineer  2 года назад +2

      Yes, there are brighter led bulbs available. 9005 is the frame size of the bulb but within that the lumen rating is how bright they are.
      If you look thru 9005 bulbs you can find much higher lumen ratings. You will notice that they will start to add cooling fans because of the higher energy draw.

    I would suggest disconnecting the wire from the bulb before removing the bulb. Also I test the new bulb before I completely install it. I would also suggest installing the bulb and then connecting the wire. Another suggestion is to use some dielectric grease in the housing of the bulb where the pins are.

    I'm going to try out the Toshiba HIR1 / 9011 bulbs, ordered from Daniel Stern Lighting. He insists that LEDs is a bad choice. Stock: 9005, 12.8V, 65W, 1700 lumens; New Toshibas: 9011, 12.8V, 65W, 2530 lumens. The Toshibas share identical filament geometry and base architecture as well as the same power consumption as the original 9005 HB3 bulbs. They have some sort of special Infrared Reflective Coating, which makes them a big upgrade.

    • @TheLawnEngineer

      The bulb in the link fits low beam or high beam for pacificas with the standard low beams. It’s a bit confusing because HIDs were also offered for the low beams.
      In van’s with HID low beams the linked bulbs will replace the high beam bulb and for vans without HID the led bulb will fit low or high beams.

    In your description you mention the 9005 bulb for both high and low beams. However, the link takes you to a set which includes 9005 and 9006. Are you using both in your vehicle? My wife's '17 TL+ low beam went out and I'm looking to improve the awful night visibility at the same time.
    Also, do you have any flicker? I read somewhere that there is a special Mopar pigtail required for these vehicles.
