Subaru Outback Headlight Upgrade Malaysia
BS Outback models came with halogen projector headlights on base variants, while higher trims had LED or HID units. BT models come with LED headlights standard. For BS owners wanting better night visibility, upgrading to quality LED replacement bulbs within the OEM housing is a practical option. Avoid cheap LED kits — poor colour temperature or incorrect beam pattern creates glare for oncoming drivers and is illegal in Malaysia. On BT models with EyeSight, never retrofit auxiliary lights that could block or interfere with the front camera assembly.
Subaru Outback Headlight Upgrade
- Outback headlights: BS Outback (2015–2019) has projector halogen or LED depending on trim; BN/BS Outback higher trims have full LED; upgrade halogen BS Outback to LED H11 low beam in projector housing — straightforward improvement
- Outback BS EyeSight and headlights: EyeSight cameras on BS windscreen position affects glare sensitivity; bright aftermarket headlights are not an issue for EyeSight camera; however, poorly aimed aftermarket lights can reflect off wet roads and cause EyeSight false alerts — ensure proper beam aim after upgrade
