Always verify your vehicle's original bulb size before ordering. Exact application can vary by year, make, model, trim level, and factory lighting configuration.
Dual-Beam H4 Design
Unlike single-output H7 and H11 bulbs, the H4 uses separate low- and high-beam functions within the same bulb.
The L3-H4 maintains this dual-beam configuration while upgrading the light source from traditional halogen technology to high-output LED.
This makes the L3-H4 an ideal choice for vehicles that use an H4 bulb for both low and high beam.
Designed for a Controlled Beam Pattern
A high lumen number alone does not determine how well a headlight performs. The L3 Series was designed around a focused and controlled beam pattern to help put more useful light where it is needed.
Lucas Lighting states that the L3 Series is compatible with both standard reflector and projector-style housings. Proper installation and headlight aiming remain important for achieving the intended beam pattern.
High-Output LED Performance
With up to 16,000 lumens per pair, the L3-H4 provides a substantial upgrade over traditional halogen lighting.
Lucas Lighting describes the L3 Series as producing a consistent, sweeping light pattern with a sharp and large focus point. The manufacturer also reports significant improvements in light range compared with original halogen bulbs.
Efficient LED Technology
The L3-H4 is designed to provide increased lighting performance while drawing less current than traditional halogen technology.
Lucas Lighting rates the L3 Series at approximately 40% less current draw than halogen bulbs.
The bulbs also feature instant-on operation, providing immediate LED illumination without a warm-up period.
CANBUS Compatibility
The L3 Series features an upgraded CANBUS chipset designed to provide broad compatibility with modern vehicle electrical systems.
Vehicle electrical systems can vary, however, and some applications may require an additional decoder for proper operation.
If your vehicle displays a bulb-out warning, experiences flickering, or has another electrical compatibility issue after installation, an additional Lucas Lighting decoder may be required.
Built for Real-World Conditions
The L3-H4 features IP67-rated moisture resistance, providing protection against dust and temporary water exposure when properly installed.
The combination of the compact L3 design, upgraded electronics, and moisture-resistant construction makes the L3-H4 a premium option for compatible automotive lighting applications.
