Getting New Headlights for Your Chevrolet

Keeping the lights on your vehicle in good working order is essential to safe driving. Fortunately, having new headlights installed is an easy, straightforward service that can be performed by your Chevrolet dealer. Here’s what to expect when scheduling headlight service.

Replacing your lights before they are completely out eliminates the risk of driving in the dark. If your headlights are flickering on and off, or if they don’t seem as bright as they once were, they’re probably close to the end of their life and ready to be replaced. Another sign of concern is if your low beams work but your high beams don’t. And if your headlights are consistently burning out, you may have an electrical issue.

Headlights that are cracked or that are showing other signs of damage should probably be replaced. And headlights that are giving off a foggy, yellowish glow mean need a good cleaning. Dirt and grime can build up on the plastic lenses that cover your headlights, making the light less direct. Our service department can remove your headlight lenses and clean and buff them.

Replacing Both Headlights Is a Good Idea

Drivers often bring their cars in because one of their headlights is acting up. In most cases, we recommend that you go ahead and have both lights replaced at the same time. The headlights on your vehicle are likely about the same age, and if one is acting up and in need of replacement, the other probably won’t last much longer. You might as well have both lights addressed when you’re in for service.

LED Headlights May Be an Option

Halogen headlights have long been the standard option, but LED headlights are becoming more and more common, including on Chevrolet models. LED headlights offer a longer lifespan and greater energy efficiency. The clear light they emit, which is similar to daylight, also offers increased visibility. The next time you replace your headlights, you’ll likely have the option of upgrading to LED. We can walk you through that decision and install the appropriate lights.
