How to improve headlights on a VAZ 2109

Dim headlights have become a big problem for many car owners. Poor lighting on the highway means you can see only part of the objects along the way and there is no chance of normal, confident movement. Poor quality low beams in the city, especially in wet weather, mean the risk of not seeing a pedestrian on the road or not noticing cars driving without illumination.

So it’s always worth remembering what the light on the car should be. There are dozens of options for improving the brightness and quality of the light beam from headlights. Today we will look at some of them. Let us remind you right away that we will be talking about halogen headlights, which are permitted by law.

Although xenon improves the quality of light, it reduces safety due to significant blinding of drivers of oncoming cars.

If your car comes from the factory with halogen lamps installed in the headlight optics, this is exactly what you need to proceed from. It is interesting that even in this version there are many ways to improve the light beam, its direction and quality. So you should initially try legal methods and forget about powerful xenon and other not the most successful solutions.

It's best to use factory type optics, but today we're going to talk about how to improve the factory light. However, many motorists operate a car with poor low/high beams, without even suspecting that the optics were much better from the factory.

So, for many drivers, it will be enough to return the actual factory settings of the headlights in order to receive complete satisfaction in terms of the operation of the car’s optics. Let's look at a few improvement options.

Headlight lenses are faded - solves the problem by polishing or replacing

Dull headlight lenses are one of the serious problems for motorists. Yellow glass or a dark inner side are troubles that indicate a malfunction of the optics mechanism itself or a too long service life. Yellowed and scratched glass can be polished if it is smooth using the following options:

buy a special polish for car glass, do not skimp on this product, otherwise it will not help remove microcracks and various other minor problems;
prepare the headlight in a garage or other dry place for polishing, wash it and wipe it dry (it is not necessary to remove the optical device);
Next, apply the required amount of polishing paste to the glass and rub it with a soft cloth over the entire surface; you can first polish a small area;
then rub the polish into the glass surface with quick circular movements and watch for changes in the appearance of the headlight; the procedure can take quite a long time.

It is often recommended to use expensive toothpaste as a polishing material. In fact, this does not always work, so it is better to buy special products for such cases. Moreover, you can significantly delay the very expensive replacement of headlights by carrying out this operation correctly. Cloudy glass is one of the first causes of reduced light intensity in your car.

What to do if the headlight lenses are constantly sweating?

The issue of headlight glass fogging is also quite complicated. It often happens that the optics sweat, and this greatly reduces the penetration of light during the trip. It is best to check the tightness of all elements of the headlight unit, look for the presence of rubber seals and tightly closed covers. If you cannot find the reason on your own, take the car to a mechanic. Most likely, the headlight will have to be changed (it is better to perform this process in pairs for two optical elements).

Or maybe just change the light bulb to a powerful one?

One of the options for solving the problem of poor light on domestic cars is to install high-quality lamps. And if cars of foreign origin have quite good light bulbs installed from the factory, then our cars are equipped with something cheaper. Almost every buyer has to face this problem. Choose one of the following options:

A brief overview of the design of automotive optics

The design of a regular headlight is not complicated. Most often, the headlight combines the following elements:

light source (LED, metal halide, xenon and other lamps);
reflector (reflective element);
light-scattering element (corrugated glass);
housing with fastening.

Headlights with super-bright diode lamps are very popular among car owners. Such headlights require a record low amount of energy and can work for a long time without interruption.

The operating hours of such headlights range from 30 thousand to 100 thousand hours, while a conventional halogen lamp has a service life of only about 2000 hours.

Headlights for VAZ 2109

Most often, headlights are considered in terms of their functionality, i.e. how well they perform their assigned functions - road lighting. However, headlights can highlight the appearance of a car and add personality to even the most ordinary design.

In this article we will try to figure out which headlights are optimal for the VAZ-2109 car, methods for upgrading and tuning headlights, as well as common models of headlights and rear lights.

Standard equipment of VAZ-2109

The usual power of the lighting devices that come with the VAZ-2109 car is about 60 Watts. Despite their low power, such headlights can easily serve for 10 years, and even more if used carefully. But if you purchased an uncertified headlight, its service life will not exceed several weeks.

Headlights may not fit

Therefore, if you do not want to change your headlights every 2 months, choose high-quality optics from the original manufacturer. But if you are not satisfied with the classic headlights on the VAZ-2109, then you should carefully choose alternative options so as not to purchase a low-quality product at an inflated price many times over.

There are quite a few models of headlights for the VAZ-2109, but unlike the “official” models, it is not produced on an industrial scale, but is purchased as a piece. Therefore, when choosing, you should focus only on your experience and the integrity of the manufacturer. In the second part of the article we will tell you what to look for when choosing headlights, but for now we will talk about tuned headlights, their classification, varieties and distinctive features.

Reasons for choosing alternative optics

Today, more and more car enthusiasts prefer unusual alternative options to standard headlights. There are many reasons for this decision. The most basic:

Alternative optics

alternative optics are developed taking into account increasing the aesthetic value of the car. If the alternative headlights looked less attractive than the base kit, there simply wouldn't be a need for them;
alternative headlights are a great way to emphasize your individuality by adding a unique design to your car;
The basic headlights are not always completely satisfactory for the car owner. In this case, replacing optics is dictated not only by the desire to stand out, but also by the need to replace a low-quality item with better quality headlights.

Standard headlights on the VAZ-2109 do not always meet all requirements. Due to unreliable sealant, moisture can get inside, the glass becomes covered with condensation and becomes cloudy. If oxidation of the headlight contacts occurs, it goes out. Changing just the glass is time-consuming and unprofitable - if the glass is not reliably insulated, any ingress of water will lead to a short circuit and damage the headlight. The only option left is to completely replace the base headlights with alternative ones.

Classification of car headlights

In order to properly navigate the many alternative optics options for passenger cars, in particular VAZ, we will consider the most common light sources.

An incandescent lamp is a tungsten filament placed in a sealed bulb made of durable glass.
When heated, the metal filament emits tungsten from the surface and emits a beam of light. The disadvantage of such a light source is its short service life compared to other automotive optics. Over time, tungsten wears out and the lamp burns out. In addition, due to constant evaporation, the optics darken over time.
A halogen lamp differs from an incandescent lamp in that inside the bulb with a metal filament is halogen gas (most often I or Br).
Thanks to the gas, the heating temperature of the filament increases, and the lighting capabilities of the headlamp are improved. In addition, a halogen lamp lasts many times longer than an incandescent lamp (up to 1000 hours).
A gas discharge lamp allows you to create a much more powerful design.
Such lamps are also called “High intensity discharge” or HID. Illumination occurs due to the heating of gas under high pressure. HID lamps use xenon due to its maximum light output. The disadvantage of such a lamp is its high cost, because To operate such a device you need special equipment.
Light-emitting diodes or LED are the most efficient, long-lasting and bright lamp.
An LED is a semiconductor device that converts electrical current into light. In recent years, diode lamps have become more popular than others due to their relatively low cost, bright light and huge service life - more than 3 thousand hours.

LEDs

The most common halogen headlights are gradually making way for LED ones. LED headlights have not yet become widely used, but their use reduces maintenance costs, their service life is much longer than others, and their energy consumption is the lowest. However, xenon headlights are still considered the most prestigious. Let's compare them.

Comparison of xenon and diode headlights

The design of an LED headlight is much simpler than that of a xenon headlight, so low cost is added to the other advantages.

Xenon lamps are a privilege of business-class cars, and despite their high light emission characteristics, their maintenance is very expensive.

Just look at the cost of a separate ignition unit and control unit! In addition, when xenon headlights are on, they consume a huge amount of energy - when turned on at full power, they can drain the battery in just a few hours.
