H9 low beam Silverado upgrade


Recommended Posts

Doing some research and found swapping a H11 to a H9 bulb is a common upgrade with a very easy modification.  I have found a few posts from NNBS guys swapping but nothing really on the K2XX HD trucks. I remember reading that the low beam/DRL is completely run through the BCM and no relay like the high beam. My concern might be using the 65w H9 in place of the 55W H11 bulb drawing more amps and potentially causing BCM trouble and maybe its a non issue.  Anyone try some H9s in their 2015+ HD truck? 

 

On the same note I'm going to try the 9011s in place of the 9005 high beams but that seems pretty straight forward and simple.

Trimming the bulbs was easy. Low beam is definitely better and still has the nice sharp cutoff. High beam is hard to say but would guess 10% better judging by some landmarks on my drive in the mornings but not night and day different but for the cost worth it.
