LED Headlight Install & Air Circulation


Recommended Posts

Just finished installing LED high and low beam headlight bulbs on my 2020 Silverado Custom.  They fit nicely under the factory dust covers and the improvement in night time visibility is well worth the effort.  The low beams were relatively simple to install from the top, but the high beams were a challenge because of the longer reach needed to access them.  I found the easiest way to install the high beams was to pull the front wheel and partially undo the front fender liner to provide direct access.  My only question concrns whether or not the factory dust covers provide enough air space for the LED lights to run efficiently without overheating?  I'd really appreciate any comments about this issue.

I pulled the rig out of the garage this morning and took some photos.  The difference between these LEDs and the stock halogen lights is remarkable.  I purchased the new lights on Amazon.  The brights are Sirius brand at: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KGZB8QP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and the low beams are Sealight brand at:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079KB7QX3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1  Incidentally, I ran Amazon LED lights on my previous 2017 Chevy Colorado for 30,000 miles with no issues.
