Are LED headlight bulbs worth it?
Are LED headlights worth it? LED headlights offer an improvement over their halogen counterparts. However, you should come out ahead in the long term as LEDs are more energy efficient and may last longer than halogens. That means less strain on your vehicle’s battery and less money spent on replacement bulbs.

Do LED headlight bulbs make a difference?
LEDs operate about 90% more efficiently than incandescent bulbs, and because they generate less heat, that helps them last much longer than other types of lights. Because LEDs are smaller than bulb-type lights, they allow more design freedom with headlights and other vehicle lights.
