Winjet Headlights w/DRL for 2014-2015 Chevrolet Silverado

[@Cinnamon-625]

thanks for the quick response finished install today they look great and installed hid kit , had to cut a 1/2 hole in the top rear headlight cover to run wires but looks amazing thanks again for the video

[@Jason____]

Did you happen to take pictures/video of the HID install process? I'd like to see how to do it as well as the finished product and light output. Here's the link to a forum thread I've started on these headlights and tail lights. It'd be awesome if you could add to it: www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/190155-winjet-headlights-wdrl-and-led-taillights/

[@Cinnamon-625]

i can take some pictures for sure ,having a flickering issue after driving it at night , gonna go get the plug & play capicitor for the issuse i guess its well know . gonna do a friends truck ill be sure to snap some pics

[@drakes1515]

Had these headlights installed on my truck for last 2 years, after year and a half to 2 years started getting a turn signal failure, headlght would go out,led would go out and have to wiggle connections to get them back disconnected the headlights one of the pigtail connections in the connector from truck to the headlights was burnt on both sides. Have to replace the connectors and headlight now. Just a warning of what could happen. Love the headlights and the look they give the truck but just beware.

[@blackghost1734]

I did these with hid kit 55 watt. Go 4500k hid so it’s not so blue though. It’s way bluer than led fog light bulbs. Led high beam bulbs. Very bright. Have to take lights on and off to adjust level and rt. to Lt.

[@IAnonymous3]

Thank you. You just saved me a lot of headache figuring this out on my own. How do you like the headlights??? My third set of aftermarket ones and decided to spend the money (500) and get a real nice set. Do they live up to the price???? No moisture? No chipping on housings???

[@ThomasJurk-tm3gr]

How would I go about adjusting the low beams so I don't blind people. Are they like the stock lights where there is a place for a screw driver to tighten or loosen right on top of the headlight?

[@Ne17T]

wondering the same, I just put them in and mine are low

[@Jason____]

ThomasJurk3045 yes they've got adjustment screws just like the OEM headlights. I had to raise mine up as well.

[@thereeljoshua4820]

Do the LED strips stay on all the time? I have read a lot of comments of them shutting off. My low beams are on all the time (they act as a DRL) so I'm curious if when my low beams come on at night if the LEDs will shut off. Thanks

[@Jason____]

Joshua Medeiros the way mine are wired they run all the time.

[@thereeljoshua4820]

Ok sweet. Thanks, I have been debating on ordering these for my 2015 silverado but was nervous about them shutting off.

[@thereeljoshua4820]

also do you have any condensation issues?

[@Jason____]

+Joshua Medeiros nope no condensation issues to this point.

[@thereeljoshua4820]

did those red clips that you pressed onto the purple line come with the lights?

[@lilausdude14]

Are the adjustments good? Do they allow as good or better visibility as you had stock?

[@zackholmes3644]

How did you take the screw off that is holding the grill in. The screw that is vertical

[@evilkid28]

So these were straight plug and play? You were able to use the stock wire harness to plug directly into the Winjet light housing? Of course, less the splicing for the LED DRL. Also, are you satisfied with the projector's light output and road coverage?

[@SanMario95]

I don’t think it would be possible because of the wiring in the truck, but what would have made these headlights a lot better is if the strips were LED switchbacks so they would turn Amber whenever you hit a turn signal or the hazards on. Making the strip turn on 24/7 (instead of just during the night) would have been nice also but probably wouldn’t make much of a difference since you can’t really see them on when the sun is out.

[@AnUndeadGamer]

I had bought those same ones for my truck but it didn't came with the extra connections so I feel screwed over

[@tojones1967tj]

So would you recommend these lights to a friend did they leak or get moisture on inside

[@Jason____]

I don’t have the truck anymore, but I ended up going back to stock lights because I didn’t care for the projector beam cutoff of the light pattern. It always seemed to be too low and didn’t have enough vertical adjustment for my liking. I never had any issues with the housing getting moisture in it or anything of that nature.

[@Agwings1960]

I have a 2015 Chevy 2500HD and it came with a projector low beam on top, conventional high beam reflector on the bottom.

[@joed719]

Is it possible to replace that bulb to white light???

[@marcosyebra1476]

is their any way the head light's don't come on only DRL's they look great on ur truck..thanks

[@Jason____]

Thanks. There's not a way to only run DRL's without modifying the harness or creating an entirely new harness. There's a company that can do it that a guy mentioned on my forum thread for these: www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/190155-winjet-headlights-wdrl-and-led-taillights/

[@Team83Redfish]

My DRL are only on at night and when I do remote start. I tapped into the purple wire as well. Does anyone have any ideas?

[@davinmoore2104]

I have the same problem.

[@ebrodnick11]

Same here. Did you ever figure out a solution? Not sure how Jason got his to be always on by just tapping into purple wire...

[@jenifervelazquez-sanchez8256]

Are the yellow quarters supposed to light up when on automatic?

[@tripinj]

Jason, I just ordered these lights for my silverado also but see you wired the drl's into the headlight power.. I plan on wiring them into the turn signal power so they also flash. wondering if you thought of this or even tried it and didn't work.. Thanks for making this video helped me pick between winjet and anzo headlights..

[@Jason____]

Robert Rybiski I didn't consider it when I installed mine, but it might be worth a shot. However, they'll only be on when your turn signal is on and won't function as DRL.

[@irishhandyman2009]

With all the time that has passed since you installed them, have you had any problems? I have a white 14 and would like to update mine. Just wondering if you are happy with yours. Thanks for the info.

[@Jason____]

[@xXmikeandikesXx]

How hard was it to aim these? I have a Mazzula long travel kit on my 2014 and it sits a little high in the front with its 37's. My last after market headlights wouldn't adjust these look a lot better.

[@Jason____]

+xXmikeandikesXx super easy. They just adjust with a screw on the back like factory. They don't aim quite as high as I'd like on stock ride height, but would be perfect if you sit higher.

[@xXmikeandikesXx]

thanks man i appreciate it. Do you know by any chance if you can just tap these into the running lights like the turn signals. if so what wire would that be, not comfortable with diving into my headlight wire. thanks in advance

[@Cinnamon-625]

just got mine in the mail today thank you for the video, do you think ill be able to run an hid kit ?

[@Jason____]

Sure thing. I'm honestly not sure on an HID kit since I've never installed one and don't know much about them. You might try some forums for that info.

[@tizzee11]

i sent u a message a few days ago about the headlights Alan

[@tizzee11]

Alan, email me back..just sent you another message

[@WolfMcQuaid]

Just a question. With the truck turned on have you turned the headlight knob to the left to turn off the auto light control, do the LED strips stay on?

[@Jason____]

WolfMcQuaid I've never done it and looked

[@WolfMcQuaid]

You should give it a try. Turn on the truck, turn the headlight knob to the left to turn off auto light control. If the LED strips stay lit then that solves the main question people keep asking. With the auto light off the headlights will not come on at all unless you turn back on auto control ( by turning the knob left again) or manually turning on the lights by turning the knob all the way to the right. Give it go and let me know.

[@WolfMcQuaid]

James Adams Did you try it yet?

[@ews0330]

I know this is old but I'm also interested in Wolf's question. When its dusk but not quite dark out, I will turn the knob to the left deactivating the DRL, and then PUSH the button inside that same knob and it turns on the amber lights and the fog lights, but not the headlights. It gives the truck a mean look when riding around in twilight hours, and I'm interested to see if that is still achievable with these, or if the LED strips will stay on

[@my1948hummer]

Jason, Have a couple of questions about the lights. I just purchased a set and had them installed and have a couple of questions. 1st is do your DRL's go off when you put the truck into drive if its sunny out? Mine do. And when I cover up the auto light sensor the DRL's and the headlights are on. Also noticed when I push the fog light button the DRL lights come on. Can you please tell me if this is the same as your truck? In my opinion the DRL lights should be on all the time not just at night! I also saw in your video that you side marker lights no longer come on unless you turn on the turn signal. Just wanting to verify that mine are working correctly

[@Jason____]

my1948hummer no my DRL run all the time when the truck is running. They're not super bright in the daylight, but they are on and don't shut off when it's light out.

[@my1948hummer]

even when you put the truck in drive? do you have auto headlights, and you hooked into the purple wire?

[@Jason____]

Correct. The DRLs are always on when the truck is running and my low-beam headlights turn on when the truck is put in gear. Yes, I tapped into the purple wire.

[@Team83Redfish]

Did you ever figure out what was going on my1984hummer? I just installed mine and it’s doing the same thing. I tapped into the purple wire as well. Kinda of annoying

[@ebrodnick11]

@@Jason____ Hi Jason. Looks like I have the similar situation as several others here. I have the same truck as you. I've read through the entire forum thread. Splicing into the purple wire does not keep the LED DRLs on all the time as you say. The Light sensor on the dash must cut power to the purple wire in my case and others as well. If you can think of anything Please let me know. Thank you in advance.

[@JeremyCarangelo]

are they are clear corner or are they amber looking for this style light but with a clear corner to instal a white LED

[@Jason____]

+Jeremy Carangelo this particular color is amber corners. They offer different options though I'm pretty sure.

[@evansalas299]

I was wondering if these would go on any model 2014 Silverado or will they only fit certain trims and models i have an LTZ with the projector headlights

[@Frost-ky1jq]

I have the same setup and question.

[@Jason____]

Evan Salas they should fit the 2014-15 1500 regardless of trim. I don't think they'll fit the 2500/3500 HD pickups. What are you thinking about doing with your factory projector beams?

[@rbsgaming6067]

im not sure yet i was going to get them custom built and just make them dual projectors with some LED bezzles and halo rings but this is the more cheaper way lol

[@marcosyebra1476]

do both head lights and led's come on in the day time or only led's come on in the day time??

[@Jason____]

Yes, when the truck is put in gear the headlights will turn on just like the stock ones. The DRL will turn on as soon as the truck is running.

[@04bluesilverado]

How are your headlights holding up ? Moisture issues ? Can you send a picture or video with the light on while you are inside your truck at night ? Are they bright ?

[@Jason____]

+04bluesilverado they've held up just fine so far. They're not crazy bright and would probably benefit from a retrofit, but they're not bad.

[@arniedeluna5390]

what bulb sizes are they? for high beams and low?

[@T_RAW305x]

Any update on how these have been holding up?

[@andrewjordan7671]

I just ordered some earlier this week, they’ll be delivered today. Waiting to put them on my truck

[@T_RAW305x]

Andrew Jordan let me know if what you think after sometime, I’m thinking of gifting my father with these

[@andrewjordan7671]

T RAW i installed them last week and I’m impressed. They look really good

[@sperez6140]

How are you doing buddy you forgot to mention the fourth screw on the headlight,

[@busared06]

do you have any photos of the cutoff against a wall or anything of that sort? What size are the projectors they use in these? I'd love a set but I'm sure they would benefit from a retrofit.

[@Jason____]

+busared06 I've got a thread on gm-trucks forum where you can see some pictures.

[@busared06]

Jason just found it and I'm beyond impressed with that cutoff for an aftermarket set of projector headlights. that's next on the list!!

[@Jason____]

+busared06 good deal. I'm actually considering going back to stock lights and doing some trading. My problem is that I sold my stock lights and I'm limited to a local deal or same-day swap because I have to have headlights lol.

[@busared06]

Jason where are you located haha

[@LeviHardin28]

Have you had any problem with condensation? All the reviews on amazon talk about this. Wondering if you had any opinion

[@Jason____]

I no longer have the truck, but I didn't have any condensation issues.

[@ImGoingSupersonic]

@@Jason____ what did u get instead?

[@ImGoingSupersonic]

I have no problem with condensation. When i power wash my truck, i stand further back when near the headlights. Maybe the water pressure can screw them up

[@chaseminatrea1866]

Dose the headlight strob when you turn on the turn signal?

[@ImGoingSupersonic]

No

[@elvisgregory4594]

Jason how are those lights on you chevy from Winjet holding up. Do notice any moisture in the lens or discolor on the plastic.

[@Jason____]

They're doing great. I haven't noticed any condensation in the lenses on the headlights or the tail lights.

[@24caylan]

How do you adjust the beam? I cant figure it out.

[@franciscorivera139]

ever figured it out?

[@24caylan]

@@franciscorivera139 yep

[@franciscorivera139]

Can we get an update on this please

[@Jason____]

I no longer have the truck so I can’t provide an update.

[@tizzee11]

do you still have the stock chrome headlights u removed? if so would you sell them

[@Jason____]

I actually just sold them this past week or I'd sell them to you.

[@AnUndeadGamer]

tizzee11 I have some stock headlights I'm trying to sell them

[@warfootagee]

is the tailight black smoke or black clear?

[@MrCompita805]

pretty nice headlights, thanks for show how to install them headlights.

[@Man_in_a_Gucci_Suit]

Are these glass or plastic headlights?

[@24caylan]

Plastic

[@kylegraham1137]

Do you low beams still run as drl? Or is it only the led strips?

[@thereeljoshua4820]

I ordered these and Im not very happy with them. You have to tie them into your lowbeams so they are on all the time and so are low beams. also during the day you can see the LED strips because they arent bright enough. Then the projector housing doesnt give off great light so visibility is low.

[@lilCHIQUIS1]

Jason, you sir are a lucky man. Very nice toys!

[@Jason____]

Thank you. They're the fruits of my labor

[@Agutierreztx]

Hey, great video. I've got a 2014 white silverado myself. wanted to know if you have had any issues with this set from winjet before purchasing a set.

[@Jason____]

+Andrew Gutierrez thanks. No I haven't had any issues with them.

[@nick11117]

how about now, a year later?

[@chrisatwell6572]

so the lows are H7s what are the highs?

[@my1948hummer]

Hey Jason, Very interested in the winjets for my 2014 Silverado. Can you tell me if they give a dimension on the bulb opening to the cap that screws on? I just purchased a set of LED H11 Bulbs but am afraid they may not fit! I would actually just need the distance from where the bulb socket twists in to where the furthest part of the screw on cap would be. My bulb specs says they are 3 1/2 to 4 inches. Thanks in advance

[@Jason____]

my1948hummer I'm afraid I'm not sure what the dimension of the cap is. I'd have to measure mine to see. The low beams use an H7 though I know for sure.

[@crazypanda763]

How much for the whole set?

[@Jason____]

About $600 depending on where you buy them.

[@nrfa6229]

They still have the yellow bulbs in the headlights tho.

[@SMITH4Ash]

I highly advise you not to purchase any product from Winjet!! The products look great but it's like the warranty is set to end right when things go wrong. The seal broke on the product I purchased as soon as my warranty ended. Water got in and fried the led's. Now I'm being forced to either buy a new set or go back to ugly OEM. Winjet has terrible quality!!

[@diegorivera5124]
