Headlights OEM Toyota or OEM Porsche
I drive an Innova with stock lights and medium tint in expressways, skyway, main roads, side roads, thru rainy days and nights. No problem with my stock lights, I can see clearly.
My 996.1 is my first Porsche, and it’s consistently able to make me happy. Even the dumb lights are aging surprisingly well.
That\u2019s crazing and is not from driving, is caused by heat and direct sunlight, happened to my 981 on a very hot week I left the car parked unused, one day they were perfect a week later they were exactly like yours. A professional detailer sanded the outer layer and polished it, I then added PPF and they were perfect again.
They work exceptionally well though, the dipped beem on this car is like the full beem on my previous vehicles haha
I had to replace one of the PDLS+ headlights and it was $3,600. So that's an expensive fix but at least they didn't tear up the rest of the car.
My 2021 Toyota Venza XLE was unable to unfold the power side mirrors, was failing to move the power seat to its presets, and had issues with the back up camera not showing any grid lines. I was also having issues with my right (passenger side) headlight and noticed that it had condensation in it.
Some modern headlights performance is poor, I assume due to getting the price down to a price point where HID / LED can go in every trim, not just the top trim. Toyota's are known for purple fringing, Tesla is known for excessive glare.
We bought a 2013 Toyota last winter and I was surprised to find it was a step backward in headlights from the 2004 Toyota we replaced. Our previous car didn't have an "auto" setting but at least we could just leave the headlights in the "on" position all the time and they'd shut off when we turned the car off, and turn back on when we turned the car back on. With our current car it's like a step back to the 1990s. There's no "auto" setting. The "on" setting really means "on" even if the car isn't running, and if you try to get out of the car without turning the headlights off the car will beep at you incessantly to warn you the battery will die if you don't turn the lights off. Needless to say this has been an adjustment and I have on a few occasions driven a couple of blocks at night before realizing I forgot to turn the headlights on.
I own a 2022 Toyota, and I was just complaining to a buddy that the headlights on Auto don’t come on unless it’s basically pitch black. I wish they were more conservative.
I rented one of this those recently and can confirm the headlights are insanely bright! I was so happy to go back to my little old dim-bulbed Camry.
