Hi azine members,

I have just replaced my turn signal bulb with LED 50W power and I noticed the bulbs are brighter than my headlights.

Should I change my headlights to brighter one or equivalent to the turn signals ?

Let me know how you all think !

Since it bother you enough, the obvious answer is yes. Your fogs too.

and your dome and courtesy lights and your map lights and license plate lights...



you can't let your front turn signal take away the thunder from the rest of your car!!!

They don't look brighter to me in the pics...just a higher temp with a more blue/purple hue.

And they aren't 50W LEDs. If you plugged in something to that socket that pulled 50W, you would melt the socket and/or harness.

Yup.. common misconception when it comes to LEDs.. crappy vendors like to use the wattage to trick people, it's really a marketing tool..


When they state 50w, they're saying that it is comparable to an incandescent bulb running at 50w from a luminosity perspective. LEDs draw considerably less power while also are brighter..

Any suggestion what to get for headlights ?

Also the fog light, preferably yellow, since it's all white.

Okay so I've been reading and researching but I haven't found anybody with the similar problem. I just got my acura this last christmas. It came with a headlight out. Then the driver side quite working (fog, headlight) So basically I ordered new hid bulbs for my headlights and new fog light too. So I replaced all the lights and when put back together I have both fog lights but now I have no headlights. This makes no sense.. I'm so confused, and yes I've checked fuses bulbs again please help

Is everything plugged in? Igniter correctly secured to the HID bulb? Did you get some decent bulbs or some ebay garbage?

Get to the ballast plug, check if it's receiving 12V, use test light not a voltmeter.
