Adjusted the light — logbook Toyota Land Cruiser 1996
Finally, I adjusted the additional headlights - now it’s light, otherwise the reflectors in the regular ones can be seen completely faded.
Along the way, it turned out that the left standard headlight shines strongly to the right and it was not even possible to bring the adjustments back to normal - the service worker sins that she is Depovskaya. Although I heard from other experienced servicemen that right now Depot is of decent quality and even put on foils, not to mention the Koreans (for reference: there are plastic reflectors on the foils of some in standard Hell headlights, but Depot puts iron reflectors in the same headlights ).
Now in thought: to change the regular light to Depot or to save up for native Toyota?
Well, I have one regular Toyota headlight, it already has dust inside and some kind of dirty reflector, and the second regular Depovskaya, it seems without dirt, but also the nifika doesn’t shine anymore ... Depovskaya is probably about 5-7 years old, and she’s not “crystal†", but the usual corrugated.
So I mean, the spraying on Toyota goes many times more than Depovskaya ... although for Depot it turns out a decent time.
There is not just plastic, but some kind of oak crap that the soldering iron does not take and you use a file like a luminous one. So, if this plastic is exactly made, everything is in a bunch. The question is how long the mirror coating will last.
Well, yes, right now Depot is even put on German cars from the assembly line. Moreover, a metal reflector goes to the Depot, and the same Hella plastic sucks
A friend on Mibubisi (kupehu for America) changed the headlights at the Depot, the light is better.
The second time we tried it by changing the headlight to a Ford s-max (it broke with an icicle), and here it’s not bad, the light is similar to standard optics.
But their fogs were screwed onto the Opel, either the light was 5 meters away, or they were blinding ...
If there is a lot of dust in the headlight, you can try to remove it and rinse it with vodka, chat several times and drain. Without lamp.
the glasses seem to be alive, but they are a little high compared to the puzothers: o)
perhaps from time to time, the headlights have a lot of chips and small scratches, take a closer look.
If the glass (plastic) is in good condition, you can try changing the lamps.
Yep, got it. Tady will not bother with xen, so as not to blind.
I have yellowish ones in my regular ones, like demi-season ones. I'll try to change, we can change something. And then I went to a long distance with these lamps (then without additional light), so finally you can hardly see anything in the dark in the winter.
Xenon, it is better to put it in xenon optics, it has beams of everything 3 times more powerful than lamps. With such a headlight height, this is a mega blinder. Although everyone is shouting that my xenon is not blinding, they are driving, and not in an oncoming car. And at the sight of such a blind, they themselves spit. Just for each person, a certain light spectrum is suitable. Eye, thin device. Yes, and depending on the optics, there is a different perception of light.
There are 08 Zhiguli headlights, I really liked Philips lamps, but in the Volgovsky headlights with Philips you can’t see anything, I tried several lamps, I chose General Electric (420r a piece). In hella optics, I really like the general electrician (380r piece) or philips (night). I don't remember the model.
You just need to choose a lamp that suits your eye.
and if in the Depot the corrugated plate is screwed in with normal xenon, or is it better to put it in "crystal"?
If everything is in the mind, then the reflector shines. And so, the optics really get old, 5 years and need to be changed, xenon optics are more durable. (not a collective farm, namely xenon). So two new and properly adjusted headlights will fix the situation. And Depot, it's much better than an incomprehensible manufacturer.
