NOTICE
HID lamps have superior perform‐

halogen bulbs depending on their
frequency of use. They will probably
require replacement at some point in
the life of the vehicle. Cycling the

headlamps on and off more than
typical use will shorten HID lamps
life. HID lamps do not fail in the
same manner as halogen incandes‐
cent lamps. If a headlamp goes out
after a period of operation but will
immediately relight when the head‐
lamp switch is cycled it is likely the
HID lamp needs to be replaced. HID
lamping components are more com‐
plex than conventional halogen bulbs
thus have higher replacement cost.
