2011 KXS Head light upgrade

Recommended Posts

Hi All

I own a 2011 KXS Kluger however have found that the head lights are not as bright as I would like. My 1999 VT SS seems to provide better lighting.

I am looking at

1. Upgrade the existing globes

2. Purchase additional Spot lights

Would love to hear what other owners think of the lighting and any upgrades undertaken

cheers John

Hi John

I have a 2012 KX-S that I have tried upgrading the bulbs, in the facelifted model the main beams are now H11 bulbs. I bought some bulbs off eBay as H11s are rare at the local auto parts store - they turned out to be less bright (although whiter light) than the stock ones.

Not sure it helps you, but please share how you end up.

Cheers

Chris

HI JOHN, when I had my prado, I upgraded the globes in my headlights with IPF XEON H1bulbs, which improved low beam performance and better high beam range, I didnt have to change my factory harness, they just plug straigt in,some of the globes you may have to upgrade the factory wireing looms, there is fairly big range of different types of globes in the IPF range, from halogen to xeon,there not cheap, Icant quiet remember how much they worth ,but are worth it,so hopefully there one to suite the kluger or you needs, if not you can always get a good set of driving lights.
