Important things to know about aftermarket GMC Cars head lamps
Many of you maybe all have familiar with oem head light cover oxidized after a period of time due to nature causes. It is possible to fix this issue with some buffing and cleaning works, but it will not likely be as its brand new condition. When this happens, you might want to consider replacing your stock headlight unit to a pair of aftermarket .
When it comes to purchase a set of led headlights, there is a several type of headlamps available in the market. You have the choices of LED headlights, Halo headlights, angle eyes headlights or CCFL headlights. You also have the options to choose the housing color from black, chrome or smoke. The prices on these headlights vary depending on the manufacturers and quality level can be dramatic.
We are highly recommended buyers to research over the web on the headlight reviews prior you buy anything online. The majority of the headlight manufacturers for headlight products only offer 1 month warranty from the day its ordered. so, it is extremely important to know which head lamps for your ride that you can trust to buy instead of wasting your hard-earned money.
Anyhow, what exactly are the things a customer should be looking out for with the aftermarket headlight unit? Here are the tips:
1. The silicon sealing- some headlamps are not sealed 100% air-tight so it might causes short circuit, you need to add additional silicon seals around the edges to eliminate this future issue.2. Halo position- Some halo position can be tilted or loosen, this is the manufacturing defect and it will not be fixable. You will need to get replacement set from the retailer.
3. LED shortage- If you purchased a pair of headlights with LED , you need to test the LED and make sure it works fine. If not, you might have to replace the whole head lamps if the LED bulb is not removable. (If this is made by JunYan, their LED are all removable, you can just reach your retailer to have them shipping you the LED bulb kit to fix it)
4. Halo & CCFL is not lighting up- this is not something you will be able to fix, you have to have the whole headlights replaced !
