H7 car LED bulb

H7 LED headlight bulb for your car: bright white light in 12V and 24V

An H7 LED bulb replaces the familiar H7 halogen bulb. Depending on your car, the H7 fitting is used for dipped beam, main beam or the fog lights. Here you will find six H7 LED headlight bulb sets of 2, so left and right give exactly the same light. There are sets for 12V and sets for 12V and 24V (also for vans, motorhomes and trucks), two sets with CAN-BUS, sets with a fan and a silent set without a fan. The light colour is daylight white: 5700K, 6000K or 6500K, with 2000 to approx. 5000 lumens per bulb (manufacturer's specification).

What to look for when choosing

• Light output: the entry-level set gives 2000 lumens per bulb, the more powerful sets up to approx. 5000 lumens per bulb.
• Cooling: a fan cools actively and keeps the LEDs at temperature; the set without a fan is cooled passively via a heat pipe and runs silently, with no moving parts.
• 12V or 24V: 12V is enough for a passenger car; if you drive a van, motorhome or truck on 24V, choose a set for 12V and 24V.
• H7 LED CAN-BUS: if your car quickly shows a bulb failure warning or the bulb flickers, choose a set with CAN-BUS.
• Light colour: 5700K is bright white without a blue tint, 6000K and 6500K are cooler white.

Will it fit your car?

First check which fitting you need: you will find it in your car's owner's manual or on the base of the old bulb. An H7 bulb has one filament and a base with two flat contact pins. An H7 LED bulb is usually longer at the back than a halogen bulb, because of the cooling or the fan. So check beforehand whether there is enough space behind the headlight and whether the dust cap still fits. One set has a removable collar, which can be handy when space is tight.

Laws and regulations

In the Netherlands, only LED retrofit bulbs that are European-approved for your vehicle are permitted in a halogen headlight. Therefore check beforehand whether use in the headlight or fog light of your vehicle is permitted in the country where you drive.
