Problems with Dual Mustang Halo Projector Headlights - LED (99-04)


I bought the Dual Mustang Halo Projector Headlights - LED (99-04) from AmericanMuscle.com about a month ago and I have had problems with the brightness of them.

I don't know if I'm the only having this problem but it seems like they are not as bright as they should be. I got them with the Luminics H1 Bulbs that they recommend that we buy but even with those bulbs it seems that the stock headlights were brighter than the aftermarket Headlights.

I don't think aiming is off but the headlights shines brighter on the sides than in the center and it makes it difficult to see what is in front when i'm driving in the dark and makes it especially difficult to see when there are curves as I cannot see the curves ahead.

If anyone has had these headlights and knows how to fix it, it would be greatly appreciated if anyone could help.

take you car somewhere where it is dark and face a wall with the lights on. if they are not centered then you will need to adjust them as it is sounding like they are off

Luminics bulbs are the ones we recommend for anyone looking for a blue headlight, but they aren't quite as bright as a stock white light. If you'd prefer a brighter, white light, we actually recommend Sylvania SilverStar bulbs. If you're looking for a less expensive bulb that's still bright, you can also go with Sylvania Xtra Vision bulbs, which are brighter than standard replacements. As wraitherx pointed out, they might also need to be adjusted. Aiming the lights properly can make a big difference in your visibility.

Thanks for the help, the adjustments were a couple of inches off.

However, brighter bulbs do sound better, thanks a lot.

problem with 2000 mustang halo lights


I just finished installing the halo lights on my mustang and only one the passenger side is bright, the drivers side is dim and when I click the high beams on the passengers side is super bright and the drivers side is super dim. Does anyone know what the problem could be??? I tried switching bulbs around with the same result and checked all the connections, but still the same
