How do I know if I have a projector or
reflector headlight?
 A projector has an obvious fishbowl lens sitting
right in front of the headlight bulb. It’s not hard to
miss.
 On the flip side, a reflector has a more open
design. A reflector bowl is riddled with mirrors in
place of a lens, which acts as a reflector.
Pros & cons of reflector/projector headlights
Reflector Projector
Pros - Affordable manufacturing costs
- Simple design
- Conserves space because it's not as
deep as projector headlights
- Well focused beam chart
- Absence of dark spots
- The bright lightning hardly dazes other
motorists
- Compatible with bright light bulbs
- Luminous and far-reaching lightning
- Impressive aesthetics
Cons - The light isn't far-reaching
- Lightning cannot be controlled or
guided
- There are blind spots in the beam
- Weak and ill-focused lightning
- Consumes more space because it's
deeper and bigger than reflector housing
- High manufacturing cost
- Slightly complex design
LEDs and HIDs: Which is the best for a
projector/reflector?

For a projector headlight, a High-Intensity Discharge
(HID) bulb is the missing piece that completes the
puzzle. Because the projector lens was designed to
amplify HID bulb tech. The projector housing is
characterized by a confined space that keeps heat
entrapped. This makes it even more suitable for
HID’s temperature. It also has a cutoff shield that
helps guide the beam from an HID bulb in the right
direction (down).

A LED light functions well in a reflector headlight.
However, there’s a significant condition attached to it–
A retrofitted LED bulb requires an upgraded reflector
bowl. If you default, chances are you’d dazed other
drivers everywhere you go!
A LED light in a reflector housing eliminates the
possibility of an extremely blinding headlight- largely.
On the flip side, HID light’s outcome in a reflector
housing would be a blindingly dangerous headlight.
Can LEDs be used in the projector headlight?
 LED technology is proof that technology can create magic.
Though LED isn’t the best match for projector housing, it’s not
impossible. So yes, you can use a LED in a projector headlight; of
course, but there are some factors you need to put into
consideration.
 Using an LED light with a projector leads to a distortion in the
appearance of the beam. As a result, the highest distance of
projection will reduce drastically. If your car is equipped with the
projector housing, we would recommend a HID bulb.

Why HID shouldn’t be used in reflector
headlight?
 A reflector headlight is incompatible with HID. The reason is
simple, the brightness of the light becomes amplified, and it
dazes other motorists. Simply put, you’d be creating an
accident-prone headlight if you combine those two.
 A bright and far-reaching light while driving is desirable. But
the compatibility of the housing headlight and bulb should be
considered- always.

Projector vs. Reflector: Which is the
best for my car?
 It’s evident that projector headlight is a better choice. Performance-
wise, lightning wise, we’d recommend a projector headlight.
 Although this headlight is quite expensive, it has undoubtedly
checked all our boxes. The best headlight for your car is a projector
headlight.
 If your car is equipped with a reflector headlight, you can replace it
whenever you are ready. A trip to an aftermarket would get that done.
 The beam from your headlight is a necessary part of your car. It really
shouldn’t be neglected. To be candid, there’s a lot more to learn about
Projector and Reflector headlights. To learn more, check out our
equally explicit articles about the different types of headlights.
