Finally got the headlights fixed on my Anthem

Disclaimer; this setup works on my 2015 Anthem. I'm not sure about other models/years.

Like many others here, I try not to drive at night for two reasons.

First, I'm retired and not in any hurry to get anywhere. When I was working, every day was a vacation day and we wanted to maximize our vacation time so we drove a lot of miles and at night. Thats no longer an issue.

Second, the headlights on my Anthem suck. There was a dark rectangle right in front of the driver's side that drove me nuts. Adjusting the headlights helped but they still sucked. So, I avoided driving at night.

Now for the fix. My lower beams were Xenon lights. That means there is a ballast in the power to the bulb. I replaced the Xenon with LED but you have to buy LEDs that are compatible with a ballast. These are totally plug and play. This is what I purchased; https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH9N3YGX...t_details&th=1

Fog lights: I replaced the fog lights with LED. I've read where others said that the LED light has to be a H1 socket but that's not true on my Anthem. Mine are H7. Once again, just plug them in and you're done. This is what I bought; https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CNYFK9BT...t_details&th=1

High beams, I didn't bother with high beams since I very rarely use them.

The difference isn't "night and day" but they are significantly brighter and better than what I had. I drove a few thousand miles since I did the upgrade and not once did anyone flash their lights at me.

It works for me but YMMV.

We have a new to us 2016 Tiffin Allegro 33AA. The headlights leave alot to be desired to say the least. I will be looking at the bulbs soon to be 100% sure of the size I need to convert to LED. Thanks for posting your results.
