Headlight Repair & Replacement Service

Expert Service

Replacing a headlight might sound simple, but depending on your car, it can range from a quick bulb swap to a more complex repair. Many newer vehicles require removing panels or even the bumper to access the headlamp assembly. Our technicians are ready for both the easy jobs and the tricky ones. Most replacements only take minutes, but if your headlight housing is cracked or the seal has failed, we’ll let you know before doing any additional work. Whether it’s a single bulb, both headlights, or even taillights, we’ll get them shining bright again - fast.

  • Flickering headlights - Bulbs near the end of their life often flicker. It can also signal wiring or alternator issues, which we can check for.

  • Dim or hazy beams - Headlights naturally fade over time. Sometimes it’s just a cloudy cover that needs cleaning, but often the bulbs themselves are to blame.

  • Low-beams out, but high-beams work - Usually a burned-out low-beam bulb, but it can also be a fuse or connection problem.

  • Completely dead lights - Obvious, but critical. And remember: replacing headlights in pairs helps keep lighting even and avoids another sudden outage.

  • Safer night driving and better reaction time

  • Compliance with state laws to avoid tickets

  • Brighter, more efficient lighting with newer bulb technology

  • Even illumination when bulbs are replaced in pairs

  • A refreshed look for your vehicle’s front end

  • Halogen bulbs - 450 to 1,000 hours

  • HID/Xenon headlights - around 2,000 hours

  • LED headlights - up to 30,000 hours

  • Laser headlights - about 50,000 hours

If you notice dimming, flickering, or uneven lighting, don’t wait until you’re left in the dark. Stop by Brakes Plus for a quick check and replacement.

Stay Safe With Clear Headlights

Driving with weak or unreliable headlights is a safety risk. Properly working headlights allow you to see hazards sooner and make sure other drivers spot you in time.

Benefits of replacing headlights on time:

  • Improved visibility in dark or poor weather conditions

  • Reduced glare and more even road coverage

  • Prevention of electrical strain from failing bulbs

  • Compliance with safety inspections and state laws

  • Brighter, clearer appearance for your vehicle

Headlight replacement doesn’t take long, and it can make all the difference once the sun goes down. Stop by Brakes Plus locations or easily schedule your appointment online.
