How To Align and Aim LED Bulbs For the Brightest Light Output | Headlight Revolution

All LED headlight bulb upgrades for your application:

When your new LED bulbs aren’t aimed properly a couple things happen:
#1: You have a weird beam pattern that makes it hard for you to drive your car.
#2: You’re missing out on the maximum brightness because they’re out of focus.

This is why it’s so important to make sure your new LED bulbs are aligned correctly inside your Housings! In this video, John goes through some alignment steps and examples on how to do it yourself. Most of the time the LED chips on your bulb should be pointed horizontally, left-to-right, or at “9 and 3”. It is possible that your bulb may need to be aligned a little differently, depending on the application, but most of the time this rule of thumb holds true. If you have them installed this way and you still think you could use more brightness, pull up to your garage door and experiment with some slightly shifted alignment attempts.

Note: This video is for educational purposes only and may show street-use content with products that may not be DOT-compliant for use on public roads. The video is not intended to imply vehicle-specific street legality. LED and HID bulbs are street legal in the USA for fog light use and not in low beam or high beam headlights because they are not compliant with DOT / FMVSS108. When looking for on-road-use headlight upgrades we recommend DOT-compliant headlight housings, not bulb replacements. Certain specialty vehicles strictly limited to off-street use and not having DOT registration or license plates may use these products exclusively off-streets.

  1. Recently purchased the beam tech light bulbs and I’m putting them on a projector style headlights. Does the angle of the bulb matter in these as well?

  2. Does HID need to be aligned as well? I find it too difficult to get proper alignment in my jeep grand Cherokee, I bought the morimoto 2stroke 4.0 and resulted terrible worst than halogen. Because of that I’m switching to HID

  3. Why are most led lights today fog lights ? It seems that’s all I can find when searching for led headlights. I lost $100 on some the guy wouldn’t return them.
