    I know there is a thread for this but just can't find it. So if you know where it is at please help. I want to swap my halligan headlight bulbs. (Next time they go out.) Do I just change bulbs or is there more to this? Is it worth the extra money? Just seems like my 2012 Prius C loves to eat light bulbs.

    It is a direct swap, nothing special about installing them. I have Beamtech H11s in the low beams, I love them and in conjunction with adjusting the lights just a bit higher than stock made a huge difference in night driving vision and safety. I bought them from Amazon. I recommend you just do it, these cars projector low beams work great with LED retrofits unlike others.

    Low Beam H11 for Prius C 2012.

    I bought Philips Ultinon Essentials H11 LEDs. Decent brightness and throw. However I always advocate headlight beam adjustment to make sure you don't care other road users. Safer for everyone!

    *Note: High Beams run the DRLs. If you choose LEDS/HIDs, turn off the DRLs.
