Installed Alpharex NOVA headlights

[sanco]

So...I absolutely love the lights, 2 outer ones are low beam inner turn on for high. Turn signals are sequential and amber on the bottom, the DRLs are white and on top, bright but not obnoxious. The white LED light bleeds through to the bottom reflector and looks really neat.

High beam is noticeably brighter and i'm looking forward to testing them at night. I will post comparison pics when I do

How much did they set you back?

Law enforcement and military get 10% off and free shipping but it was still $882. That being said, after the sticker shock...I think it's actually cheaper and way less aggravating than going the retrofit route. With 2 year warranty

Could you post some close up pics of them from the side and from the side kinda forward???

I'm trying to see how much the lens bubbles out past the hood and fenders.

Thanks

Looks like they need a little adjustment by that last pic

Those look damned good on there! The LED bars look grey when off, which ties in with the grey lower center of the bumper cover. They refresh the whole face of your Tahoe.

I will, they DEFINITELY bubble out, more than I even thought they would. Luckily my cheap ass grille does too so it doesn't look out of place. From most angles it's not noticable but the few are really out there. I'll post pics when I get the night shots

Yea I thought so too, I'll check how it is at night.

Oof

Yea tell me about it, it's not cheap at all but like I said, if you break down a retrofit it is not too far off. And I didn't have to do any work or hack up harnesses or cut the radiator support or **** with baking headlights

Thank you, i'm very happy with it, my biggest worry was the daytime running light led strip. Im not crazy about them being put into every production car but this was done right IMO

I’ve been looking at these, mostly out of curiosity. Looking forward to see how they bulge, and also to seeing them adjusted better. Kinda cool.

Those look killer! I like them a lot! Very different from everything else! The LEDs really stand out!

We need some good cutoff shots when those things are aimed properly! And quality reports at 1, 3, and 6 months!

Looks fantastic so far though.

Here's the headlight aiming procedure from my Yukon owners manual. I'm sure the Tahoe/Suburban is close to the same

Double post

I added some pics of the bubbling out design of the headlights, I don't mind it but for some OCD people it might be a deal breaker. Keep in mind these shots are taken to show the lights in absolutely worst angles.

Will do. I adjusted them today but still no night shots, hopefully in couple days I will have some ready. There were no instructions on how to do it but it was very easy to do with a small screw driver. They will definitely get tested this winter, I work midnights so the lights will get plenty of use

It’s actually not as bad as I thought it would be since the entire top is pushed out uniformly and not just the outer corners like I was initially thinking.

 

[kbuskill]

Agreed... not that bad... the average Joe would probably never even notice it.

I think it may be a deal-breaker for me though, I think those lenses won't clear my brush guard.

I have a go rhino full wrap around, I will mount it later this week and post up some clearance pics with measurements
