Section 31 (Lighting Systems - Exterior (Service Information)): Headlamp: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Dodge Magnum, 2006 Dodge Charger, and 2006 Chrysler 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Quad headlamps are standard equipment on this model. They are halogen headlamps, both low and high beams.
This vehicle may be equipped with optional High Intensity Discharge (HID) low beams. The HID type lamp is used in place of the conventional halogen low beam lamp. High beam lamps remain the same halogen type.
HID lamps get their name from the intense white light produced by the electrical discharge. The light produced by the HID lamps appears as a white color as opposed to the yellow color of the standard halogen lamps.
HID lighting provides about three times the light output of standard halogen lamps while using less energy. The lamps are also designed to last 10 times longer than standard halogen lamps.
