Chevrolet Cobalt LED light

For 2005 through 2010 models, the Chevy Cobalt headlight bulb size is 9007 (also known as HB5) for both high and low beams.

You can, but you need to make sure that the LED bulb matches the interface and voltage of the Chevrolet Cobalt halogen headlights. And the LED bulbs need a good heat dissipation system to ensure that the LEDs can work properly. Most importantly, you need to make sure that the replacement complies with local traffic regulations to avoid affecting the angle of illumination of the lights. If you are not sure, it is better to consult professionals or go to a headlight tuning store for installation.

2005-2010 Chevy Cobalt headlight bulb replacement is not difficult and can be easily done by following the steps below.

1. Open the hood.
2. Remove the headlight assembly. Unscrew the two bolts at the top of the headlight. Gently pull the assembly forward.
3. Disconnect the wiring harness.
4. Twist and remove the bulb socket.
5. Replace the old bulb with a new bulb (avoid contact with glass).
6. Reinstall all parts in reverse order.

Finish!

The benefits of replacing halogen bulbs with LED bulbs include:
1. Higher brightness: Improves nighttime driving visibility and safety.
2. Lower energy consumption: saves vehicle electrical loads.
3. Longer life: Reduces replacement frequency and maintenance costs.
4. Faster response: quicker illumination helps improve reaction time.
5. More modern appearance: Improve the overall aesthetics of the vehicle.

The cost of converting headlights to LEDs usually depends on the model, brand, and quality of the LED headlights. The approximate cost range is about $30 to $200 per headlight, and the entire conversion process may include replacing bulbs, controllers, and circuits for an overall cost of roughly $50 to $300.

The average lifespan of a quality Chevrolet Cobalt-specific LED headlight is usually around 30,000 hours, which is more than 30 times that of a stock halogen bulb (about 1,000 hours). But the actual lifespan depends on the thermal design and brand quality. For example, RIMTHIN's LED bulbs have a better quality of life and can last up to 50,000 hours.

Yes, LED headlamps are typically brighter than traditional halogen bulbs, have higher luminous efficacy (up to 6 times more than halogen), use less energy, and last longer.

In the United States, the legality of replacing headlights with LED headlights depends on meeting the standards of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and state traffic laws. If the replacement LEDs meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS 108) and are certified, they are generally legal.
