Sooner or later, any motorist is faced with such a problem as the choice of an autolamp. The first thing to do is to determine the basic parameters of the lamp: base, voltage and power. Before purchasing an auto lamp, be sure to read your car manual.
Instructions
Step 1
When choosing auto lamps for a car, first determine their type. This can be done by reading the manual for the car or by removing the old lamp and looking at the markings. Also, you can use specialized catalogs that allow you to select auto lamps by purpose, characteristics, car make and type of base. Autolamps can be of the following types - Н1, Н2, Н3, Н4, Н7, НВ3, НВ4, W5W and others.
Step 2
The next thing to look for when choosing auto lamps is the manufacturer. There is a wide range of car lamps on the market, it all depends on your budget and type of lamps. Halogen lamps, similar in their characteristics to xenon lamps, have become very popular. Automotive lamps of foreign manufacturers are in the greatest demand.
Step 3
Next, decide on the power and light output of the autolamp. In the domestic market, you can buy auto lamps of both standard power (60/55) and increased (90/100). Since the increased power of auto lamps affects the electrical components of the machine, lamps with a standard power and increased luminous efficiency are currently being produced. It is recommended to install just such auto lamps, because they significantly improve visibility at night while driving without harming the electrical components of the machine.
Step 4
When choosing an autolamp, you should immediately decide how many of them you need to buy - one or two. As you know, the service life of identical cars does not differ much. Therefore, if one lamp has burned out, then you should expect that the second will also fail soon. In addition, during the operation of a halogen car lamp, its light output may change, and as a result, there will be a difference in the illumination of the two car lamps. It is better to buy two autolamps, so that later there will be no various troubles.
