- In the world of automotive lights two different companys, Auxito LED
and Lasfit LED come to mind. these are high quality led head light bulbs and
in this video we install expensive lights on our 202e hyundai Santa Cruz
Lasfit and Auxito both have some unique features when it comes to there LED lights and we are excited to compare them.

You guys went the extra mile by doing the oncoming traffic comparison test. That's the first time I see this on CZcams. Great video guys. Thank you so much for making this video.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
As long as the LED lights are double the lumens is good enough, anything over, is bonus. But I always take into consideration of the on coming traffic because I am on the receiving end may times of those after market installation that only care about lots of lumens and 6000k++😢
I liked that part, as well. Thanks for taking the time to do it.
A manufacturer’s claim of the % increase in brightness is seldom true. The only way to measure that is testing them using a brightness measuring tool. One CZcamsr did a bunch of different bulbs comparing the halogens bulbs to the LEDs in both a projector style housing as well as a reflector type housing. Two things were apparent after the testing. One, the projector lowbeam housing with the LEDs performed slightly worse than the reflector style housing with the same LED bulb. Also every LED was tested for what % of brightness they were versus halogens compared to what the manufacturer said they were. None of the bulbs were as much of a % brighter than halogens compared to what they said, but some were closer than others. For instance one bulb that claimed 500% more light was actually only 178% more while another that was a claimed 300% more light was 247% more. Also some LEDs produced a beam pattern that was terrible while another LED left a better beam pattern. This review was good because you did the oncoming traffic point of view comparison. I would have liked to see the comparison of the length from the mounting tabs of the base to the back of the fan. My Highlander’s lowbeam housing has a mounting hole that doesn’t allow most if not all fan equipped LEDs to fit and that’s not the dust cover that won’t fit it’s the bulb’s fan that hits the hard plastic part of the housing that the dust cover screws into. It’s impossible to get the bulb to fit all 3 mounting tabs into the bulb hole which means the bulb is crooked in the projector and the light beam is scattered all over the place and dimmer than a 4 year old halogens bulb. Isn’t there a plastic cover in front of the wheel arch on the bottom that can be unscrewed to access the headlight bulb? There is on the 2017 to2019 Highlander but every video on CZcams shows to pull the wheels inner fender and the wheel flare. A little heat is a good thing in colder climates to keep the lens from icing up but heat shortens the life of LEDs. 0:00

Pretty cool how you care about not blinding oncoming traffic.
That’s why it’s important. Especially with the right type of led bulbs like these two brands. Always make sure
the leds are supposed to be facing 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock to be pointed properly. redo em. and auxito always ships their bulbs with an allen wrench to adjust the bulbs
thank you fellas, what a great video. I ordered the Lasfit.
Thank you for this video! I was thinking about getting the Lasfit and I'm glad they are not that bright against oncoming drivers
I just installed my LASFIT on my sedan and they are amazing..
I appreciate your work in creating this video, thank you so much!
Happy to help!
Thank you very much really nice vídeo A+
I’m about to buy some bulbs for my new headlights and definitely this video helped a lot to decide which ones I want so thanks again
best video ive seen about this subject
I tried LEDs with fans in my old pickup a few years back. They didn't last nearly as long as they claimed. After a year the bearings seized up and they overheated. Been running ones with heat sinks ever since without a problem. Another plus with the heat sinks is they are more compact so work great if you have limited depth to mount them in.
I'd be interested to see how these hold up as well. Those auxitos boast 50,000 hours haha. Time will tell.
Do you know if they have changed the Auxito lights since you installed them? The ones you linked on Amazon say the don't fit 2023 Santa Cruz?
Sweet review. i have seeen the video a couple of times already so what Auxito model were they? and what what lasfit model were they? LS plus or LA Plus?
@ADVENTUREGT try having to remove the complete bumber cover to access the headlights to be replaced.
Bad ass review thank you
the auxito bulb has an allen screw below the rubber o ring that allows you to adjust the beam.
Sure enough. That's what I get for not getting into the manual lol. Still seems like quite a bit of work compared to the Lasfit adjustment. Thanks for the tip though
@@AdventureGT I ordered the auxito y13 and could not loosen the screw, so I returned it for another exact one and the same thing happened. They include an Allen key, but it works on every screw except the one that counts. My guess is that they might have glued them on. Well, I gave up and ordered Lasfit LC 50w leds which turn on their own instead
As long as u properly align the lights it wont bother other drivers. I use the Auxito M3 which is not as hot but I love them and highly recommend them
The M3 gets hot or on a cooler side by up to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is much better than others. However the Lasfit LA plus builts up to 96 degrees Fahrenheit. Which is one of the lowest temperatures on the market.
I've been using Lasfit LCPlus for a while. I switched the Auxito Q16, and what a difference! Much brighter and wider beam. As for the gloves, I thought it was supposed to use it while lights are one, and make sure it was set up properly. Since the fans get hot as hell!
If u have a separate low beam and high beams.
I would kept the LC plus for low beams and Q16 for high beams.
Because LC plus will last much longer because of the heat is up to 124 degrees Fahrenheit. And Q16 I’d 168 degrees Fahrenheit which is u should of take in the consideration.
Would you say lasfit is better than auxito
dope vid 👍
I always recommend these two brands. Both lasfit and auxito are the best options to go with. I have lasfit and auxito products in my 2015 lifted Scion xB.
My family’s 2017 Toyota sienna has lasfit, auxito, and even sylvania zevo brand.
And now my brother in law will have lasfit and sylvania zevo. And xenon depot.
Sylvania leds are pretty good, good warranty on them too
@@chrisd5758 ya they are. Wish sylvania make the led bulbs brighter up to 20 watts. Instead of 12/13 watts, which it gives the same lumens. But in reflector style headlights, it’s brighter.
I have a 2016 tc , can’t decide. What do you recommend? Car is white I’m thinking white headlights & ima get clear lens fog lights with switch back bulbs to white & yellow
@@user-rq9ud6sl8lthan I would highly recommend Lasfit - LA plus for ur headlights.
For ur dog lights, get Lasfit - LD plus switchback. I have them in my H11 switchback and I love them.
But I also have Lasfit - anti-flicker or resistor.
Because from my understanding, I see people use switchbacks and had some issues whether they had them and then stock working, or they start flickering. Or whatever the issue is.
Hopefully Lasfit already solve the problem.
So I went with on a safe zone, and get myself Lasfit LD plus switchback H11, with Lasfit - anti flicker.
U gotta make sure u mount them both external driver of the LD plus and the resistor, mount them on the metal frame for best heat dissipation as possible. That’s what u want.
And I also highly recommend, get ur hands with Morimoto - green dielectric grease. I think Amazon has them.
What it does is u put an extra barrier, to prevent moisture or water, from getting in to ur connectors.
It’s basically a cheap insurance to protect ur investment.
So even if it’s water proof, it can still potentially ruined ur led bulbs. Depends on what area u live in.
So if the braided cable is exposed into the elements, use the dielectric grease between the connectors.
@@user-rq9ud6sl8lget Lasfit - LA plus 9012.
If u get an H11 fog lights, get Lasfit LD plus switchback. And also get Lasfit anti-flicker for H11 to stable the led bulbs.
Get the Morimoto green dielectric grease for to seal the connectors, so the moisture will not get in the bulb.
I want to protect them at all cost for to keep the reliability and longevity going.
try the Lasfit LS plus series those are Lasfit top tier bulb
If not the pro series
Not sure but it looked like the Auxito had a screw under the gasket for focus adjustment.
On H11 they do. On LA plus it’s a 360 adjustable collar.
Can you please tell me which model are the Lasfit? I can't open the amazon link, thanks!
Sorry about that they are the LA Plus Series. I made a new link that should work now it that helps
I just installed a pair of Auxito DD-Y19 into my 2015 Dodge Charger they fit fine but they go on and off for a few mins then they just stay off any tips on what could be happening, I ordered them from Amazon?
Too much wattage maybe? I had a pair that was 120 watts n one side or both don’t remember anyway would shut down after few seconds n had to go with lasfit with lower wattage but I went back to stock halogen since no matter how much I lowered the low beam light still get people thinking i have highs on think just cuz the pattern not as great like projectors housing
@@xxdropdeadxx6679no such thing as too much wattage. In order to fix that, get an anti-flicker from Auxito or resistor to stable the brightness of the led bulbs.
Auxito led are excellent
The COB isn't sensitive. It's a gimmick from the old halogen bulbs that WERE affected by oils on your hands
COB led chips will never work for headlights.
If u see a led bulbs that has those COB chips, stay away from them.
Thank you, Sir
@AuxitoLED will this melt the housing? They seem to run hot.
The one with the canbus is plug n play in any car?
It should be. Might want to check on there website befor buying though
will the dust cover cause over heating due to no ventilation?
So far in 20 days there has been no change because of the heat they put off. The Fans do a pretty good job.
How did you chose the correct bulbs?
For which brand? I had both company's contact me and they sent the applicable bulbs.
If your asking which one I am currantly using. I went with lasfit based on the results.
@AdventureGT Lasfit, I've looked for the bulbs however I don't know which wattage to go with. My car is rated at 51W so should I choose the 50W or the 60W?
The bulbs linked in the description are the specific ones they thought were best for this vehilce. They are 60 watts. Been using them dailey for about 4 months no problems
@AdventureGT thanks alot I appreciate it
Happy to help!
laysfit
Lord.. People that engineer these new cars must suffer from brain worms
The truth!
I have a 2015 renegade lattatude, and just put in $100.00 Sylvania h13 9008 and flicker when engine is turned off....
I have used Lasfit and Hikari, Hikaris are more expensive, but both are very bright. If your vehicle uses the low beams as day time running lights, than the Lasfit will last about a year and a half or so, if not, they'll easily last 3+ years. I haven't had the Hikaris long enough to tell you how much they last, but they supposedly last at least 5 years. My wife's MDX has had the Lasfit for two years, fog lights, low and high beams with no issues.
@@LEGEND04131 I’m gonna get the auxito 9005 for my moms 2017 sienna. It uses high beam as a drl I will use an anti flicker system 😊 to prevent it
@@toyotabrony2729 You only need anti flicker on signal lights. You shouldn't need anti flicker for day time running light bulbs.
@@LEGEND04131 that’s true but here’s the thing. When it comes to DRL light system. Sometimes on drl lights, especially with led. They can flicker. I say that because the 5th gen 4Runners have the only most common for when it comes to two modes. A DRL function, and high beam function. When they install a high beam? It started to flicker. So putting a anti-flicker system helps to prevent flickering as well. Not just the turn signals.
Like mine. I have a 2015 lifted Scion xB with Lasfit - LD Plus switchback. I seen other 5th gen 4Runner with switchbacks with no issues. Especially on mostly Toyota. And I seen others on GM, Dodge with very sensitive canbus system.
My xB doesn’t have that high tech.
But since I have two modes of 6000k and 3000k. I use lasfit anti-flicker system as well. Not just for flickering. But I don’t want to come across with color shifts. So play safe for that.
Same goes to 2017 Toyota sienna le. Both 5th gen 4Runner and 3rd gen sienna use high beams as DRL’s. Well it also use turn signals as DRL and it’s an automatic system, wether if it decides to use turn signals or high beams as DRL’s.
So in conclusion, having a anti-flicker system on high beams that our vehicles uses as DRL function is necessary to prevent it.
@@toyotabrony2729 I see, I didn't know all that .
I'm sorry for commenting something I didn't know, good luck with those led's.
% better brightness is almost always. BS. In another video they used a measuring device to compare % of brightness between a halogen and several LEDs in both projector style and reflector style lowbeam housings. None of the bulbs were the % brighter compared to the Halogens that they claimed and some weren’t even much brighter at all. Some were close but none matched their claim. Also the LEDs all were brighter in a reflector housing than they were in a projector style, once again some close and others quite a bit of difference. I wish you would have compared the length of the bulbs from the mounting tabs to the back of the bulb’s fan as my2017 Highlander’s lowbeam housing doesn’t allow any H11 LEDs with fans to fit inside. Some heat would be nice in colder climates to keep the headlight frost and snow free but heat also shortens LED lifespan. The 2017-2019 Toyota Highlander has the worst lowbeam performance I have ever seen. In fact you can’t even tell the light is on in a dark and rainy night. This sucks because this vehicle could use a brighter LED. I’ve wasted over $200 on LED bulbs that I was told would fit in the housing but don’t and the last company told me he quarantined they would fit because they were more compact but they don’t fit, only 2 of the three tabs will go in because the back of the fan hits the hard plastic of the housing. The spare O rings are probably thinner or thicker O Rings to make fitting them easier ( I tried the thinner halogen o rings on the LEDs I have but that didn’t work either ). The company refused to refund me for these.
Bummer man, sorry to hear about you Highlander, it's crazy they won't refund you.
Look up bulb facts and headlight revolution. They do better of guess work for brightness, lumens, Lux, and for off-road pod lights is candela.
lasfit don’t last stupid quality
Quality is there. U probably have experience with defective bulbs.
Damn Whatta major Payne
What do u mean?
