Hi MaTTyBiGs,
I've been looking into upgraded my wife's 2016 Subaru Forester XT's headlights for a few months now. When we purchased it she said she didn't care about headlights and as a result we went with a basic package. Now that she's been driving it for almost a year she feels the headlights are so dim that it's dangerous to drive at night as they basically don't illuminate anything.
I've seen you post on the forums quite a bit regarding the safety of conversion kits, so my question is, what are my options? I found some housings on Aliexpress, but I doubt they've been approved by regulators, and all the after market sites only sell conversion kits rather than full housings. I will likely post on the forums but I value your respect for safety and want to know what my legal options are with regards to upgrading my wife's vehicles headlights.
Thanks for your time!
