Hi there and thank you for this upload! I've had a pair of Headlight Revolution's Star HID Projector (55W) Headlights for the past six (6) years on my 2006 H3 and they have been simply AWESOME! They were super easy to install...just a tiny bit of trimming on the mounting bracket to allow for the rear of the projector. Trimmed it in under a minute with a Dremel. Other than that, it was true Plug & Play the rest of the way... I love these lights and it would have to be something SPECTACULAR for me to even FATHOM replacing them with another headlight...especially with one that entails so much cutting here and trimming there... It's GOT TO BE true "PLUG & PLAY" without any Mickey Mouse trims and adjustments for me to consider another headlight kit... Once again, thanks for this upload and thumbs up from me as usual... I have been a subscriber of yours for years now and I thank you for all that you have accomplished... Stay safe... Rico
The Starr HIDs are excellent headlights with amazing lighting performance! I was considering buying a set years ago, but I never did. I am sad that they have been discontinued because they were actually reasonably priced at around $500 to $600. You can still get H3 headlights that look like that from HIDProjectors .com but prices start at around $735 and can go up to $1500 with options since every headlight is hand built to order. I think this video kind of bridges the gap between the cheap Amazon 7" headlights and the really expensive HIDprojectors headlights because there is a number of options in the $150 to $800 range that people can choose from. Thanks for watching!
@@Ricovette Thanks I appreciate it! Yeah these videos take incredibly long to make. Sometimes even longer than I anticipate myself, but I think they are worth it. Thanks for watching!
The one issue I've found with LED headlights that have a sharp cut off is you are essentially driving with very little light scatter (makes sense to avoid blinding oncoming drivers). But this means you're looking at a well illuminated area of the road and then total darkness after the cutoff. Your central nervous system is designed for light to diminish with distance....otherwise you end up with tunnel vision. This becomes very fatiguing on long night drives when using the low beams. Plus it is kind of dangerous and frustrating not being able to read road signs taller than 4' high. LED's are great for being seen but their light output frequency is so short the light just doesn't travel well compared to HID or halogens, especially if the ground is wet of their is fog in the air. Let us know what you think after you've had them for a while....keep up the good work on the channel.
Thanks for the comment! Yes you are correct that there is less light scatter. In the real world low beam test I did in the video, you can see the new KC projector headlights don't illuminate the streets signs in the distance as bright as the Amazon headlights did. I am pretty sure there is a lot of truth to wait you are saying about fatigue, but it seems as if that is where the automotive industry as a whole is moving towards. In the past 10 years or so, more and more cars are incorporating this technology into their vehicles so it is kinda of fun to keep up with the times and modernize the H3. Also since my H3 is lifted so high over stock ride height, I think other drivers on the road will appreciate that I am not blinding them 😂. Great comment!
That's something I have really been meaning to do, but I still got more modifications planned. As of now I got about $6500 wore of uninstalled parts sitting on my shelves. Rear air suspension, new headunit, rear steel bumper, 4 camera system, LED offroad lights, new tail lights, etc. I have been trying to make videos on the stuff I am installing at the time. I got a few videos already started, but still need to go back and film some more stuff to complete them.
That bumper is from Road Armor. They are huge aftermarket steel bumper manufacturer. They did make this bumper specifically for the H3, but it looks as if they no longer offer it on their website. I am sure if you were to call them they would still have the design laying around and could make you one though. Back in the day it costed $2350 but that was in the 2010s and since then the price of steel has gone up. So I could imagine price could be somewhere in the $3000 to $4000 range. These bumpers are very rare to see on H3s. I think I have only seen this bumper on like 3 or 4 other H3s. Back when Road Armor developed this bumper for the H3, they showcased it on the hummer forums and everyone immediately complained it was too expensive, so for that reason not that many people bought them. Road Armor's main customer demographic is owners of brand new pickup trucks and jeeps. You see these bumpers on a lot of $100K+ show trucks and high dollar offroad builds. There is just not a lot of H3s out there in general and far less who are willing to spend that kind of money on a bumper since the most H3s have a market value of somewhere around $7K to $25K depending on condition and spec so not a lot of H3 owners bought them. That being said, it is an awesome bumper and probably the most well built and good looking aftermarket bumpers out there.
@@4lowmode Dang, for $4k I'd rather save up a bit more and wait for a Rancho to appear... That I would have zero problems dropping a couple of grand on. Thanks for all the info though man! Solid stuff. I just installed those amazon lights like 2 years ago, but this might be worth the extra dough. I'm a bit disappointed with the light performance of the ones I have installed
@@notsojoerogan Yeah it is something to look into. I thought the Amazon headlights were okay, but after 2 years I started looking to see if there is anything better. I would highly reccomend that you watch Headlight Revolution's 7in LED shootout videos to get a better idea about current 7in led headlight offerings and see if you find anything you like! Not all the lights they present in those videos are projector headlights that 5 or 6 inches thick, some of them are just the normal 3.5in. Headlights from brand names are going to offer much better performance than the cheaper on Amazon because much more research and development has gone into their creation. So if you find a standard sized LED 7" headlight you may not need to do the modifications I presented in the video, but have found that some of the sharpest 7in headlights are projector headlights that are 5-6 inches thick. Hope you find what you are looking for!
Woah great video you explain everything so well thank you a lot. Those headlights are like a 2021 vehicle’s & newer but like you said if you don’t have the money led headlights do the job too.
Yeah they are not going to be for everyone, but its something to consider down the line. As you saw, I started with the Amazon headlights and ran them for about 2 years. Also I did include some cheaper 7" projector headlight options out there for people that are interested. Actually, some of these high end projector headlights are LED, like the KC gravity pros. But you can also get real HIDs from HIDprojectors .com if you want.
Been following you vids for about a year now since I bought my h3! Was wondering if you knew if lased design are still making the 7” bezels? I’ve got the adapter kit ordered and on the way but they always seem to be sold out of the bezels whenever I look, and I’d love to get me some to complete the overall look of my headlights.
I just talked to the owner last night and yes he is still making them. The reason why they are out of stock a lot of the time is that take a while to print and they are also printing multiple other products for the H3 that they sell on the website.
I just ordered the 7" Round Headlight Retrofit Adapters Gen 2 for my H3. I wanted to go with new headlights like your Amazon ones. This projection ones are nice though. But don't want to drop so much money. The brackets were already 150$
Yeah that's fine. To start out with you can go with some of the cheaper Amazon headlights. Then if you want to upgrade in a year or two, that could work.

Since @4 low mode is saying that they no longer offer it a good alternative bumper to get would be the ARB Deluxe front bumper. I have one on my 2006 h3 and I love it. For me it ran around $1500 + a $500 10k smittlybuilt winch so around $2,000
Just watched the comparison towards the end of the video of the old and new. Thing I noticed is the Amazon lights shine farther down the road than the KC. Lit up more of the road. The KC cutoff do not go far enough. You can easily out drive the lights IMO. At low speeds that would be ok. Not at highway speeds would that work for me. Unless I am not seeing the true light pattern from the video. Great video though. Thank you.

Nice! 7" headlights fit into the H2 with no aftermarket adapter. To get these 7" projector lights to fit, you have to do a good bit of trimming though.
Hi idol. I just want to ask regarding the size of wirings for headlights. Are they 18 awg enough for them? Which size do you recommend for fog lights as well. TIA
Hey man i admire your work, do you know someone who sells rancho suspension kit or there is no longer in salr, and wich tyres do you have! Looks amazing! And how much did you lift the truck, a big hug from north of Mexico.
The rancho lift kit has been discontinued since 2016, so the only real way to get one is to buy a whole H3 with one and swap it over it your vehicle. The tires I have are the Toyo Open Country M/T 38x13.50x18R which are basically 38in tires. From the factory, the H3 has 33in tires if equipped with the adventure package. The lift I have on my H3 is a combination of things. I have the 4in Ranch Lift Kit, the daystar 1in body lift, Schwarttzy rear extended shackles, front torsion bar lift, and the larger tires cause the H3 to sit like 2in higher.
Hey! Wondering if you’d have an idea what would cause the drivers side low beam to go out. I used all the adaptors and polar converter recommended and it worked fine for 2 years. Think the converter could be an issue?
I have had these polarity converters now for three years with no problems it is most likely going to be either the ground connection or one of the pins on the H4 harness plug has fell out. I have had this happened to me before and just had to stick the pin back in for it to work again.

@@Gravediggerx2 You still will have a 200K+ mile H3. The trans could go out, the bushings will need to be replaced, you may need to replace parts of the cooling system, I would change all fluids, etc. There is a I5 H3 and V8 H3. Also there are 2 different I5 engines and 3.5L and 3.7L. If you are replacing the engine in the I5, you need to get the same engine. If you have a 2006 H3 with the 3.5L and find a 2007 H3 engine which has the 3.7L, you are gonna have a heck of a time trying to get everything to work. Getting the same engine makes it much easier. Cost to replace the I5: $5K. If you get the V8 version, it can last around 350K miles, but the V8s are about 5K-7K more than the I5 and high mileage V8s will still have the maintenance upkeep that comes with owning a higher mileage H3. You may think of buying a cheap I5 H3 and if the motor goes bad, you can just V8 swap it, but the average cost will be around $10K and it would have been cheaper just to buy the factory V8 in the first place. Me personally I have a 2008 H3 Factory V8 that I bought at 250K miles and it now has 257K miles. In that time period I have replaced: Radiator + coolant flush, water pump, thermostat, font hubs, rack and pinion, both CV axles + axle seals, all 4 O2 sensors, all A/C seals, power steering pump, did a trans rebuild, horn, bump stops, front drive shaft, windshield, hvac resistor + harness and I still got more to do. Some things I still need to do are the front axle bushings, sunroof motor, sway bar bushings, new catalytic converters, steering wheel angle position sensor, something with the EVAP system, front end alignment, and a couple other things. H3s can be reliable vehicles, but I would highly reccomend buying one with lower mileage so you aren’t immediately hit with maintenance.
That is true. They do not fit Euro spec H3s that come with oval shaped headlights and clear turn signals from the factory. I have covered this before in my Hummer 7in Jeep Headlight Update Video

@@4lowmode in that case, I think the better option would be Iron Bull Bumpers. They still make Bumpers for H3/H3T, H2 and they give you different options of design. Also their price range is from $1,600-3,000 depending on the design you go for and the add-ons. They also coat all their bumpers with a line-x like substance.

Back when Road Armor developed this bumper for the H3, they showcased it on the hummer forums and everyone immediately complained it was too expensive, so for that reason not that many people bought them. Road Armor's main customer demographic is owners of brand new pickup trucks and jeeps. You see these bumpers on a lot of $100K+ show trucks and high dollar offroad builds. There is just not a lot of H3s out there in general and far less who are willing to spend that kind of money on a bumper since the most H3s have a market value of somewhere around $7K to $25K depending on condition and spec so not a lot of H3 owners bought them. That being said, it is an awesome bumper and probably the most well built and good looking aftermarket bumpers out there.
Love Hummers! I have 2 H2’s.
Nice! 7" headlights fit into the H2 with no aftermarket adapter. To get these 7" projector lights to fit, you have to do a good bit of trimming though.
@@4lowmode yea, both of my H2’s have the 7’s.
@@modificationnation73 Nice!
Hi idol. I just want to ask regarding the size of wirings for headlights. Are they 18 awg enough for them? Which size do you recommend for fog lights as well. TIA
Please let me know where i can get H3 headlight adapter. I have 2 H3s and want two sets. Lased Design would be great, but always out of stock.
So did you already have the adapter bracket or just modify the stock stuff?
Hey man i admire your work, do you know someone who sells rancho suspension kit or there is no longer in salr, and wich tyres do you have! Looks amazing! And how much did you lift the truck, a big hug from north of Mexico.
The rancho lift kit has been discontinued since 2016, so the only real way to get one is to buy a whole H3 with one and swap it over it your vehicle. The tires I have are the Toyo Open Country M/T 38x13.50x18R which are basically 38in tires. From the factory, the H3 has 33in tires if equipped with the adventure package. The lift I have on my H3 is a combination of things. I have the 4in Ranch Lift Kit, the daystar 1in body lift, Schwarttzy rear extended shackles, front torsion bar lift, and the larger tires cause the H3 to sit like 2in higher.
where can i buy the headlight bezel i cant find them on ebay😢
Donde consigo ese bumper
Will the H3 break down easily?
Hey! Wondering if you’d have an idea what would cause the drivers side low beam to go out. I used all the adaptors and polar converter recommended and it worked fine for 2 years. Think the converter could be an issue?
I have had these polarity converters now for three years with no problems it is most likely going to be either the ground connection or one of the pins on the H4 harness plug has fell out. I have had this happened to me before and just had to stick the pin back in for it to work again.
Where did you order your V1 headlight studs at?
Luv that Bull Guard? Custom?
Does the Hummer H3 Stabilizer/traction feature work on the Manual 5 speed Transmission ? 2006 H3 5 speed manual.
I love your bumper- anyone making it still- name/brand?
That bumper is from Road Armor. They are huge aftermarket steel bumper manufacturer. They did make this bumper specifically for the H3, but it looks as if they no longer offer it on their website.

@@4lowmode crap ok I shall keep looking thanks
What size bulbs do these headlight use?
They are LED. They are a sealed enclosure. They don't have bulbs.
OK thanks
Your hummer still run perfect?
Nope. It is a never ending project. I still go a lot more to do to it before I get it fully functional.
@@4lowmode shit, so I shouldn’t buy a h3 then ? There’s one over by me for 10k,
@@Gravediggerx2 I would reccomend getting one in the 100K to 120K mileage range. Buying one at 200K miles will require a lot of work.
@@4lowmode can’t I just buy an engine with low miles and swap ?
@@Gravediggerx2 You still will have a 200K+ mile H3. The trans could go out, the bushings will need to be replaced, you may need to replace parts of the cooling system, I would change all fluids, etc. There is a I5 H3 and V8 H3. Also there are 2 different I5 engines and 3.5L and 3.7L. If you are replacing the engine in the I5, you need to get the same engine. If you have a 2006 H3 with the 3.5L and find a 2007 H3 engine which has the 3.7L, you are gonna have a heck of a time trying to get everything to work. Getting the same engine makes it much easier. Cost to replace the I5: $5K. If you get the V8 version, it can last around 350K miles, but the V8s are about 5K-7K more than the I5 and high mileage V8s will still have the maintenance upkeep that comes with owning a higher mileage H3. You may think of buying a cheap I5 H3 and if the motor goes bad, you can just V8 swap it, but the average cost will be around $10K and it would have been cheaper just to buy the factory V8 in the first place. Me personally I have a 2008 H3 Factory V8 that I bought at 250K miles and it now has 257K miles. In that time period I have replaced: Radiator + coolant flush, water pump, thermostat, font hubs, rack and pinion, both CV axles + axle seals, all 4 O2 sensors, all A/C seals, power steering pump, did a trans rebuild, horn, bump stops, front drive shaft, windshield, hvac resistor + harness and I still got more to do. Some things I still need to do are the front axle bushings, sunroof motor, sway bar bushings, new catalytic converters, steering wheel angle position sensor, something with the EVAP system, front end alignment, and a couple other things. H3s can be reliable vehicles, but I would highly reccomend buying one with lower mileage so you aren’t immediately hit with maintenance.
The Lased designs brackets do not fit all H3's
That is true. They do not fit Euro spec H3s that come with oval shaped headlights and clear turn signals from the factory. I have covered this before in my Hummer 7in Jeep Headlight Update Video
What Grill guards do you have?

@@4lowmode in that case, I think the better option would be Iron Bull Bumpers. They still make Bumpers for H3/H3T, H2 and they give you different options of design. Also their price range is from $1,600-3,000 depending on the design you go for and the add-ons. They also coat all their bumpers with a line-x like substance.
@@alejandromonreal3250 Yeah not sure on the Road Armor price as it is just a guess. You would have to call for exact pricing
