Re: 2003 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 - Road Trips/Light Overlanding/Daily Driver

The first upgrade is a simple one - and one I perform on any vehicle I own that uses 9005/9006 bulbs. I convert it to 9011/9012 HIR bulbs for more light output at the stock wattage and no additional heat. The conversion is simple. Remove the old bulbs, trim one tab on the new bulbs, and install them as usual (see photos below)









The bulb with the "green" back panel is the new style bulb - just trim the one tab close enough to a match of the old bulb. Bam! 10 minutes to much brighter headlights, without blinding oncoming drivers or shortened lifespan.
