What kind of Bulbs are Used in Cars?

We have a massive range of bulbs for all types of vehicles. If you’re looking for something energy efficient, then purchase one of our LED car bulbs. They are exceptionally bright plus they will drain less energy from your car battery.

There are 3 main types of bulbs used in vehicles.

These common bulb types are:

Halogen Bulbs

Halogen bulbs are fitted to most cars because they're more cost-effective to manufacture offering a cheaper replacement than other bulb types. They fitted to most types of cars today.

They cost less than Xenon or LED bulbs and at GSF Car Parts we stock a vast range of halogen bulbs for every make and model.

LED Bulbs

LED bulbs are a brighter option for your car. They are highly energy-efficient using less power from your vehicle's battery. They have greater longevity than halogen bulbs.

150-300% brighter than halogen and they can last up to 10 years. The downside is that they are more expensive than halogen bulbs.

Unfortunately, although it is legal to have LED bulbs internally in your car, there is no legislation to approve the use of replacement LED lights externally. And since 2021, MOT testing centres will now fail LED upgrade bulbs unless they were fitted by the manufacturer.

Xenon Bulbs

Xenon HID bulbs have a xenon gas which is 300-450% brighter than standard halogen bulbs and they can come in different colours. They should be replaced around every 3 years and in pairs. 

Like LED bulbs there is currently no legislation for Xenon bulbs to use legally as replacement bulbs in your car. Unless fitted originally by the manufacturer.
