Step into modern times with these DOT-approved LED headlights!

These 7" round, white LED headlights offer superior light output and significantly lower power consumption than all standard Halogen H4 lenses. We tested numerous DOT-approved LED headlights, and these two manufacturers were the clear frontrunners. These headlights offer a fantastic beam pattern and have excellent manufacturer warranties. Plus, they are both rated at 100,000 hours, which means they'll likely be the last headlights you purchase for your van. 

Options: If you are looking to save some cash, try our GoWesty brand Asian-made headlamps. They are truly excellent quality. However, if you want to support a USA manufacturer, the American-built Peterson brand units are an excellent choice.

Fits: 1968-79 Bus and all 1980-91 Vanagon with round headlight grilles. Please see fitment notes tab for more info.

Great headlights!! Nice and bright with the whiter LED technology for both regular and bright settings, in one unit. My '86 had the older glass units with separate brights in the African grill. I mounted parking/indicator lights in the inner openings and am super pleased!

Easy installation. Appear to be far superior to H4 bulbs. Won’t truly know until truck comes out of storage in the spring.

Let it shine!

Awesome upgrade! The led lights are bright as can be compared to Those unsafe dim stock lights. Installation was pretty straight forward. The grille could be a little better quality but gets the job done. Don’t look back safety first.

These lights are very bright and look nice in my 85 westy. The beam they produce is very wide and narrow, it does not light the area directly in front of my bus very well. They are great for seeing an obstacle like a deer, but not so great to see a pothole. Mine were installed and set up by my trusted mechanic, so I feel they are installed correctly. If I knew how narrow the beam was focused I would not buy them. They are probably fine for interstate driving, but I don’t do much of that. One caveat is that they are brighter than the original lights, but that’s a not saying much.

In 2015 I upgraded to the South African grill/headlights and relays. Major improvement from the weak lights on my 1985 Vanagon. Recently replaced the 7" halogens with the LED lights. WOW! Perfect fit, amazing illumination, and they look awesome on or off.

So much brighter

These are a huge improvement over the halogen lights I replaced. I can see so much better at night with these LED headlights.

Go Westy is the best! Been purchasing from them for nearly 20 years. They are always extremely kind and very helpful. Anything I have ever purchased from them has been top notch. The headlights I just received were installed with ease and met all my expectations. Thanks guys! As I said, you’re the best!

LED Headlights for my 1985 Westy. So far so good as I've taken the van for test drives around the neighborhood. Was surprisingly easy to adjust the beam. Won't be able to take it on a real camping excursion until I geet the pop-top tent complete, which is a real challenge at this point. Got the top off the van and old tent removed. Now I have the top tent and rails complete and top back on. BUT, during bottom screw installation, as much as I pulled each 6-inch section taut (starting at the center back rail, each side is 3 inches short and will not fit around the front corners... that story is for another post.

Literally a night to day difference

I’ve owned vanagons continuously since 1986, and made uncountable updates and upgrades to improve performance and reliability over the years. I’ve never gotten more bang for my buck than this LED headlight installation.The OEM headlights provided the bare minimum of illumination. These LED headlights improve lighting to modern standards. You will see well after dark, and while driving in daylight you will be seen. Just do it; you won’t regret it. It could save your life.

HUGE IMPROVEMENT!

Took the grill off and discovered more parts that need replacing. Luckily, GoWesty has those items as well. That being said, once I balanced & aimed the lights, huge improvement. Expensive but worthy upgrade. Don’t know why I waited so long. (Actually I know: the price!) Even so, GoWesty had the most affordable price for Peterson 7'' LEDs anywhere on the internet.

Do either of these have the Halo for daytime running lights and turn signals?

GoWesty

There’s no halo. Both Led headlights are 3 wire bulbs, so there’s nothing to turn a halo on. Without there being a halo – there’s no turn signal function. It would need to be a 5-wire system with a halo LED to both work with running lights and turn signal.
