Headlight bulbs?

I may have most of the bulb numbers I used. I got them from Summit Racing accept for the front Turn and DRLS up front.

It is recommended to get an LED with a cooling fan.
Regardless of what a vendor may advertise about their "fanless" designs, I would caution LEDs without fans will not last as long or reliably. They often start flickering and next will fail
If the Sealight bulb fits, it is worth the money.
I've used Sealight LEDs for 3 cars now and some 6 years.
After auditioning and trying 11 other brands, Sealight has several models that performed well and lasted. There are two or three other brands also that do well.

Front DLR and Turn lights are I think 3157 LED but in Switchbacks. they will be yellow in the day time and white at night or yellow when turning. I do not have a number on these and one of the vendors here had them. They will also keep you from melting the housing for the light. Check yours as if it is original likely it is cracked or melted.
The Relay 30 Amp. DAK-RLY-1. It is a 4 wire but you will only use the Black and White wire and cut the other two off.
Extension Wite Harness 2 Piece 9005-9006 Headlamp socket connector adaptors. from amazon. You cut this wire and splice the relay in so it is plug and play on the car. Bolt the relay to existing stud on the passenger side. only one relay is needed.
You may want to double check me on these as you order as I did this from memory. You can sub in many other bulbs for the side and rear but I would stick to the Oracle bulbs for the head lamp.
The relay install is on the site here as a member posted it and that is where I learned what to do. It is a much safer and better way to do this. Otherwise the headlamp will not close unless it is on bright.






After reading all kinds of opinions about what kind of aftermarket bulbs were ... Good, Okay, Horrible, ... I figured that trying this and that and some third/fourth solution was a way to make myself crazy. So I knowingly went with about the most expensive offering at the time. The factory headlights are DANGEROUS in my opinion. A car that goes as fast as the C5 needs really good headlights. The upgrade from Sharp Light Innovations is as good as anything coming out on new cars in 2023.
If you want to tinker around the edges and see if some Sylvania (for example) bulb works for you that might be a way to save some dollars. I have been really pleased with the one-and-done upgrade available from Sharp Light Innovations.
Hope that helps someone.
