I have been working out of town for the past few years and have not considered buying a car. After I returned to my hometown last year and stabilized, I bought this 22 model Sagitar. Usually, when I get off work late, and sometimes I have short business trips, I feel more and more that the lighting effect of the Sagitar headlights is poor. The brightness of the low beam is low, and the high beam is also very diffuse. On the highway, when the oncoming headlights turn on, , I didn’t dare to drive too fast for fear of danger. This immediately gave me the idea of changing the headlights!
(A close-up view of the basic version of the car light scheme, the lens is big and bright! The overall style also looks much better)
But I am a novice about car lights and don’t know anything about it, so I bought a light online. As you can imagine, the result was that not only was it not installed, but the headlights of the original car also started to malfunction! One time I was having a meal with my brother and I was complaining. He said that he had just upgraded his car lights some time ago and the effect was pretty good. As he was talking, he gave me his boss’s phone number! After making an appointment, we drove over.
Because of the limited budget, I upgraded a basic version of the car lighting solution:
1. No need to cut original car parts. The decorative frame, brackets and lenses of the original car were all removed and replaced with a high-end liner specially developed by the manufacturer for special cars, which directly improved the appearance by several degrees! (I have seen some simple and crude modifications on the Internet before, and I am afraid that my Xiaoteng will also be treated in this way. After all, I have not driven this car for a long time. I feel sad!)
(There are no cutting marks inside the headlight assembly, and the design is novel)
2. The headlights of the original car have been upgraded to modified Hella 5 bifocal lenses. The high and low beams switch very smoothly. The width, brightness and paving effect are several times better than the original car headlights!
(The upgraded lens is particularly bright, and the lighting effect is also good during the day)
3. Changing the light source is very technical! As we all know, Germans are rigorous in their work, so the internal workings of the Sagitar's MQB platform are very precise, and any changes to the working equipment will cause malfunctions. Therefore, in order to avoid reporting a malfunction when upgrading some car lights, they will hide the original car's light source, and then open a line from the original car line to install the additional light source. In this way, the old and new light sources work together, and it is easy to exceed the approved power and cause line failure. load! If you have insurance, it's okay, the lights will just go out suddenly, but if it's serious, it may spontaneously ignite.
However, the boss said that my car light upgrade plan does not need to retain the original car light source, so there is no danger of increasing the load. The product plan developed by this manufacturer includes a decoding module that can match the original car’s computer protocol, so that the instrument panel can also There will be no fault report! (The boss is reliable, give me a thumbs up!!!)
4. Able to pass the annual inspection. I mentioned this when I first talked with my boss. I was afraid that it would not pass the inspection after the modification, which would result in wasting money and having to dismantle the lights.

Below are the lighting effects at night on different road sections recently. The brightness is quite good. You can refer to it!
(There are country roads, sections with few street lights and urban sections)
This is my first car light modification experience. I don’t have much experience, so I added some things to the car lights. I will talk about it in detail in the next post! Welcome fellow riders to communicate together!
