A lot of people buy the P5 due to it being a very budget friendly machine that is dependable and built like a tank. So when it comes time for upgrades, more than likely those same individuals want to keep them as budget-friendly as they can as well.

With that in mind, the stock headlights on the little guy are not very good especially in today's world of bright LED's. So, can throwing in a simple LED replacement bulb give the Pioneer a much-needed improvement in nighttime visibility? Let's find out!

Probably better off asking him on his YouTube comments. I don’t think he’s been on here in quite a while.

  1. Looking to buy
Thank you for sharing useful information! Replacing parts sometimes really costs too much. People buy cars and don't think about how they will serve them in a few years. Several times I bought used cars and had to go to the car service after a few months. I wanted to upgrade my current car and install some LED strips in the cabin to add a cosy atmosphere. I constantly forget to buy flashlights when I go to the store. In the evenings, finding something without bright lighting is difficult, and the phone is often needed for other purposes.
