Has anyone tried XenonPro HID headlights and fog lights? My hubby wants upgraded lights for his 2015 Silverado 1500 for Christmas and I’m not sure if these would be good. I’m looking at the icy blue color.
Help would be appreciated with led headlights

I have a Auxbeam LED bulbs on my 19 (Low, High, and Fog). They are a lot brighter than stock and are about $55 a pair and on Amazon Prime. https://www.amazon.com/Auxbeam-Headlight-Headlights-Conversion-Temperature/dp/B07BT9VZKW/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=Auxbeam+H11+Led+Headlight+Bulb+Led+Headlights&qid=1580508881&s=automotive&sr=1-5
More on reddit.comLED / HID bulbs are flickering
Flickering is generally caused by one of four things:
- CANbus system - onboard computer not recognizing the aftermarket bulbs
- Daytime Running Lights (DRL's)
- Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) systems
- Insufficient power (rare)
LED / HID bulbs are not turning on
If your LED or HID headlight bulbs are not turning on, the cause is likely a polarity issue.
LED and HID bulbs are polarity sensitive, which means that if the positive doesn't line up with the positive and the negative with the negative, no power will flow from the vehicle to the bulb.
Below, we explain how and where to reverse the polarity on LEDs and HIDs.
2 Daytime Running Lights (DRL's)
This is the second most common reason why aftermarket LED/HID headlight bulbs flicker.
DRLs operate kind of like dimmer switches in the sense that when they are used during the day, the power supplied is lower and the light is less bright compared to when they are not dimmed and fully powered at night.
When the lights are dimmed, insufficient power is fed to the LEDs/HIDs, causing them to flicker.
This issue can generally be resolved by setting your light setting from automatic to manual or by disabling your DRLs.
If neither of these options solves the flickering issue or if your car does not have these options then your vehicle cannot use LEDs/HIDs and will be limited to halogen headlight bulbs.
