The new generation of LED bulbs has surpassed old xenon kits and has become economically accessible and easy to install since there is no need to install ignition control units; simply remove the old bulb and install the new LED one: the front of the vehicle will take on a more modern appearance, significantly improving road illumination and avoiding the annoying glare from old xenon kits; to install the bulb on the passenger side, remove the engine air filter box to access the bulb holder, remove the cap, and replace the bulb.
