Chevrolet Suburban Custom Projector headlights? Angel eyes? Halos? Blue light? What do all these terms mean? Let’s start with projector headlights. Suburban projectors headlights originated in Germany about twenty years ago. It was technology taken from racing vehicles driven at night. Chevy Suburban projector headlight technology started seeing the common roads on many upper-class vehicles such as the BMW and Mercedes Benz. BMW and Benz wanted to produce a headlight that would focus the light directly in front of the car instead of on the sides of the road and into the sky which standard parabolic headlights do. It was important to have the maximum amount of light in front of the vehicle when traveling at speeds over 150 kilometers/hour. Shortly thereafter, Japan borrowed the projector headlight technology from Germany and used it on a few Lexus vehicles. Now, Suburban projector headlights are used on most new vehicles (foreign and domestic) built today including many trucks and SUV’s. Suburban projector headlights are becoming more mainstream opposed to the previous parabolic headlights used in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Again, the purpose of the Suburban projector headlight is to focus 100% of the beam of light in front of the vehicle instead of all over the highway....in areas where lighting isn’t really necessary.

Suburban projector headlights will take the place of your existing OEM headlights. MyTightRide.com sells its Suburban projector headlights in complete sets (left and right side). And, the headlights come included with halogen bulbs and a wiring harness for a quick plug-n-play installation. Many of the aftermarket custom Suburban projector headlights will NOT use the same OEM bulb that your Suburban has from factory. For example, the 2000-2006 Chevy Suburban uses a 9006 halogen bulb from the factory for its low beam. The aftermarket custom Chevrolet Suburban projector headlight uses either and H1 or H3 low-beam bulb and a 9005 high-beam bulb depending on the manufacturer. These bulbs are readily available from local auto parts stores if replacement is necessary. No need to replace the entire headlight housing if a bulb burns out. MyTightRide also carries aftermarket H.I.D. bright headlight bulbs if you want to add a lot of brightness (I mean a LOT of brightness) to your headlights. You can read more about H.I.D. headlight bulb kits if you check out our bright H.I.D. headlight bulb section.

Most custom aftermarket Chevy Suburban projector headlights come in two flavors or colors. Colors depend on the housing of the projector headlights. One color is chrome and the other color is black. Again, these colors are the housing itself and not the front lens. The front lens is a clear, top-quality Plexiglas.

The new generation of the Chevrolet Suburban custom aftermarket projector headlights will now come with an amber side reflector. Back in May 2006, the DOT forced importers and manufacturers of projector headlights to ensure the headlights were DOT-compliant and street legal. Therefore, we cannot sell any projector headlight without an amber side reflector. Unless, the OEM headlight did not have a reflector like the 1999-2002 Silverado/Tahoe/Suburban headlights, the projector headlight will have an amber side reflector. The custom aftermarket Chevrolet Suburban projector headlights will not have side reflectors. Most others will.

Angel eyes? What’s an angel eye? The term angel eye again came from the BMW line of cars. Many of the modern BMW vehicles have an LED ring that circles the low and high beam lights. These LED rings are separate from the headlights themselves and really don’t provide much as far as lighting the road. However, they do look pretty sweet. Many of the custom aftermarket projector headlights come with either one or two angel eyes…depending on the size of the lens. Likewise, the term halo is referring to the same LED ring. Many aftermarket projector headlights come with dual halos (or angel eyes) depending on the size of the lens. These halos or angel eyes will require wiring to an alternate power source. Check out our installation of a set of 2002-2005 Ram projector headlights for our description of a projector headlight installation and halo wiring.

What’s that blue light I see on many BMW and Mercedes Benz vehicles these days? Is that a projector headlight? Well, the answer to that is no. Many of the late-model Benz & BMW cars and SUV’s do have projector headlights. However, the blue light you see is from an H.I.D. lighting system.H.I.D. is High Intensity Discharge and requires a different type of bulb, ignited by a ballast. These H.I.D. bulbs burn much brighter than a stock halogen bulb, cooler than a halogen bulb and requires much less energy to light. Instead of a filament producing the light, an H.I.D. bulb produces light by creating an arc that is generated between two electrodes. The effects are truly remarkable…three times higher luminance that closely resembles natural daylight. So, the quantity of light is far greater while consuming half the energy of stock halogen bulbs. MyTightRide.com sells an aftermarket H.I.D. bright headlight kit for many applications.

Many customers ask if they can use an H.I.D. kit with their projectors. The answer is yes, you can! However, purchase the projector headlights first, then purchase the H.I.D. kit afterward. Or, purchase them together from us at MyTightRide.com and we’ll make sure you get the correct H.I.D. bright headlight kit for your aftermarket projector headlights. Do note, many projector headlights do not have the depth required by bright H.I.D. headlight bulbs. Many projector headlights have a bar in the center of the cavity in which the bulb resides. We will verify your H.I.D. headlight bulb kit will work with the Chevrolet Suburban projector headlights you purchase from us.
