LED headlight upgrades may not be legal for on-road use in all vehicles or jurisdictions. In the United States, the Department of Transportation (DOT) regulates vehicle lighting under FMVSS 108, which applies primarily to complete headlight assembliesānot individual replacement bulbs. Some aftermarket LED products are marketed as āDOT compliant,ā but actual compliance depends on the specific product, vehicle, installation, and local enforcement standards.
