Headlights OEM Subaru or OEM Chevrolet
Reviews
My 15 brz had a dial under the left side of the steering wheel.
Pros: dial under steering wheel
Vehicle:
Subaru BRZ
Not sure about the Forester, but common issue on Outbacks. You can't adjust the brightness, but you can adjust the angle. You need a long shank Phillips screwdriver and you can angle the lights down a bit
Pros: adjust the angle
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
On my 2012 Cruze: I pulled into a gas station during a snow event to manually clean buildup off my headlights and the base of the wipers.
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Cruze
I have been worrying about this ever since I got my 2025 Crosstrek. These new headlights are much better for my lousy eyesight while I'm driving at night
Pros: better for eyesight
Cons: pissing people off
Vehicle:
Subaru
Man, I drive a Subaru. My apologies. You are getting the regular headlights, not hi beams. They’re just very bright. Sorry. ;(
Pros: very bright headlights
Vehicle:
Subaru

Vehicle:

Since the night I drove my car home, I've been getting flashed by drivers while using my low beams.
Cons: blinding other drivers, getting flashed
Vehicle:
Subaru
I'm a paramedic and we drive the chevy Demers ambulances. The headlights are extremely poor and unsafe to the point where i think demers/chevy is becoming legally negligent. Driving out to a suburban/outskirt town for a nightshift in my new car and then hopping into an ambulance to do a transfer back to the city and im like leaning over the steering wheel squinting to see the road at dusk, its such a stark contrast in headlight performance and throw.
Cons: extremely poor, unsafe
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
I came to reddit to make sure I wasn't crazy. 2025 Impreza. I just got it and had it out at night for the first time last night. Same exact issues. Very odd cutout on the road in front of me. Very distracting.
Cons: odd cutout, distracting
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
I decided to Google the 2025, Subaru. Crosstrek headlights, because mine have these black circles that show up on low beams. It is so distracting and so annoying, and my low beams look so low, that straight ahead is not bright at all.
Cons: distracting, annoying
Vehicle:
Subaru
