SLT vs Denali headlights

minisoda · November 13, 2016

Anyone have pics with their SLT and Denalis from the front with headlights on? I am trying to determine how big of a difference and whether the SLTs have halogen inside the projector lenses vs HID.

If they are halogen it seems like an aftermarket ballast/hid bulb might be doable. I did that upgrade in my tundra without projectors.

Thanks!

I don't have pics, but I can tell you there is no comparison. The HID's in the Denali are clean, bright, and 5500k which is pure white. I just bought a 2018 SLT Premium. It has Aweful halogen headlight bulbs.

Same ones that were in my 2014 Silverado LTZ. I changed the Silverado bulbs to Fluxbeam H11 LED 6000k LED's. HUGE difference. I did the High and Low beams. They are brighter and the color is crisp and white. (also did the fogs 6000k.)

So I'm considering doing the same thing to my new Yukon.

HOWEVER..... Since I bought the FluxBeam's a couple years ago, the tech has improved and there seem to be several others out there. So I'm still researching.

Yes, HID's would be a great alternative... I just like LED's.
