hey guys,

so as per title, i got into a slight mishap that resulted in my passenger side headlamp being replaced. after the replacement it looks like the new lamp is more yellow and clearer than my driver side lamp. the driver side lamps are a bit more hazy and have a bluer tint.

i was wondering if anyone has any idea if it's an issue with the bulb, the colour difference. and what i can do with regards to the lamp haze. i've searched but i wasn't able to find any thorough instructions on how to remove the lamp and disassemble it for cleaning. or if there's an easier way to remove the lamp haze.


thanks in advance guys!

jason.

 

Replace in pairs or just kinda deal with it.

 

You might try to swab out the inside with detail swabs(harley dealers sell them, giant Q tips) or lint free cloth on a stick through the hd lite bulb hole. I did this on my Norton headlight, I was going to replace it and it cleaned/cleared up nicely.

 

Thanks for the tip! i'll give that a shot and see how things go!

 

Concerning the color difference, do you have xenon headlights? Xenon bulbs do emit bluer light as they age. You need to replace the older bulb if you want the color to match.

 

yes i do.
wow that explains a lot! thank you! hahaha!

 

Do the minis have a plastic or glass lense?
