Denali Headlight Issues

[Rocket Man]

Ive never heard of that. You could swap wires and sockets along with bulbs and turn the high beams on to eliminate that possibility though. Just twist the high beams into the projector side, wires and all. Hit high beams and see if the projectors are brighter like that.

well i took them back out and disassembled...i found the "chrome" reflector material in the cylinder is bubbled and flaking off and laying inside the chamber. So i am assuming that it cant reflect off the black plastic and it cant reflect thru the flakes laying in there. So next move is to order new light assembles like Debo's or???? Does anyone make new OEM parts for the projector part?

Any chance that someone was runnning 55w HID's in those at one point and burned out the projectors?

Highly recommend that you take care during your purchase to NOT purchase black tinted lenses and that you get the one with black chrome reflectors instead. Tinted lenses will limit output.

There aren't any with black chrome reflectors that I've seen, the reflectors themselves are always chrome but the area around any reflective area can be black. It still makes them look mainly black. But yes, the smoked lenses will cause decreased output. I have them in mine and needed 55w HID to get good output! Also, as you may have found out, to answer your question, there are no replacement parts available for the housings only new housings. You can still get OEM ones also if desired- $110 each at Rock Auto.

Gotcha...you dont happen to have the part number handy?

Here's a set of Spyder on EBay that fit the bill. You can take the part # and shop for the best price if you want. They come with halo's but if you don't want them just don't hook them up. I left mine disconnected. You might want some black corner lights too so they match, they're only $20 or so for an off brand.

On another note, I'm glad you figured this t. It was a real mystery to me why a stock Denali projector wasn't bright.
