Rvduck Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 What bulbs do the 2016 Silverado 3500 HDs use on the headlights and fog lights? I think they may be different than the 2015s were. I have to say my new High Country has exceeded my expectations in every way, except the poor lights on low beam. High beams are fine, low beams not as good as my 08 Silverado were. I am used to good lights as my car has factory HIDs but I am leery of putting an aftermarket HID kit in because a tech on one site told me I may have trouble using the auto setting on my switch. I would like to try LED bulbs and I would appreciate any advice. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjfetz1 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I put the HID kit in and have no issues with the AUTO setting. They are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthpawHD Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I like the lights in my '16, they seem slightly better than my '15, but that just might be because the truck sits higher and they could be aimed out slightly more. Hard to tell for sure. But the fogs are just too low and too narrow for my liking. I understand why they are that way, but I would prefer a wider beam. I won't be buying any HIDs any time soon.

jhplak325 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Thought the 16's have HID's installed from factory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arth Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I thought the same but I wonder if this is only for GMC? Thought the 16's have HID's installed from factory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avalonandl Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 No HID's for the bulbs- they use the H11's for lows. Silvestars will help... There are LED Drl's is my understanding.... The GMC (high trim levels) got HID's I think.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
204ltz Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 For 16 they have LED bulbs 1500 all the way up to 3500 trucks Sent from my SM-N920W8 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
