1 YEAR WITH Anzo Switchback Headlights (Do I STILL LIKE THEM?)

So about a year ago, Real Truck gifted me these Anzo switchback headlights

And I want to let you guys know my thoughts after one year of using them

Now, I'm going to tell you everything that I do like about them. I don't like about them

And if you guys should buy them, so stay tuned for that

All right, so we are going to kick things off with styling on these headlights

And I have to say, this is by far my favorite thing about them

Now, to me, these headlights actually look very stock. and honestly look more like what this Tahoe probably should have come with back in 2007 when

this vehicle came out. It completely changed the feel of this Tahoe. It used to be that the

interior of the headlights was kind of blacked out, which obviously was the style of the time. However

nowadays, that is definitely outdated. And I really think this interior chrome housing looks really nice

Of course, it has that DRL, which I'll show you guys in a moment. But the styling of these

just really is by far my favorite part of it. And I think it's completely

made this Tahoe look so much better than anything else that I've added to this

Now the next thing that I really like about this is the inclusion of this LED DRL

You can see right here. Now all Tahos do technically have a DRL, but it was just a halogen bulb

You can actually see, I think it's right here. However, the inclusion of this DRL right here, I think, has just completely changed it

It looks so nice at night, and I've been really impressed with them

This is exactly what I wanted when I wanted to upgrade these headlights and I very happy that that happened Now it also should be mentioned that these do switch over to turn signals when you turn on the turn signals So I going to show you that really quick And this is what the amber DRLs look like when

they are on. So obviously this is the turn signal. I really like because it makes it so much brighter

at night and I think people notice me a lot better. And to be honest, it looks cool as well. Now the next

thing I like about these headlights is honestly the quality of them. For the price, obviously, I hope that they would be really

high quality. However, I've been really impressed with the quality on them. They have not in any

way started to yellow, which a lot of the cheaper housing start going yellow after about a year

But I have had no noticeable yellowing of the headlights. They've held up to rocks. They've held up to

all that kind of stuff really well. And so I haven't had any issues when it comes to quality

over the past year. And it should also be mentioned here that actually came with all of the

hardware needed. If you want to watch how I installed it, I have a card up here of when I

originally put this in. But it came with all of the different bolts. that you need. It's literally just plug and play. You plug in the wiring harness and that is it

Which of course brings me to the ease of install being the final thing that I really liked about these headlights

These things were incredibly easy to install. Of course the Tahoe, this generation of Tahoe is a little bit more difficult in that I had to remove the whole bumper to be able to install it

But that isn that big of a deal because I honestly need to replace this bumper anyways I actually about to replace this bumper I have one at my office right now now because I have a giant hole in it So you going to actually be seeing me replace this bumper Probably in the next couple weeks or so So make sure to subscribe for that Anyways for as for ease of install it literally like I said earlier was just plug and play

I have no qualms on this. This is probably one of the easiest things that I did on this Tahoe

Just because it's literally just once you get the headlight assembly out, you just pop the other one in

screw it in, and then you just plug it in because it uses the factory wiring harness

Okay, so now let's talk about the things that I didn't super like over the past year

this first off it has to be the fact that while they did include all of the bulbs in here it was

halogen bulbs which i didn't fully understand i thought at the time it actually was LED but it is

halogen so these are the kind of warmer style bulbs which is unfortunately because it doesn't

match the kind of cooler color of the d rl like literally the cooler like a little bit more bluish

kind of tent to them the headlights are more of a yellow the d rl is a little bit more of a

white and i prefer that not to be that way i did buy some LEDs to be able to fix that but

But I, you know, I just haven't installed them yet, and that should happen soon

The other thing that I super haven't necessarily liked is the projector headlight portion of it

So projector headlights have kind of a flat line when it goes out instead of spreading out the light like most headlights do

So you have this flat line that kind of, it's hard to explain without showing it exactly

So it essentially has a flat line that it projects instead of it being just dispersed all over

Now it is nice that it doesn blind other people on the road but I don super like it and you have to adjust these just right to make it so that you get just as good a vision as a normal headlight But by no means they are definitely bright

And so they are not a dim headlight, but it is a bit of a bummer. And then the final thing that I don't like about these headlights comes down to the price

These things are over $500. And when you can buy aftermarket versions of these headlights for like $100, 200 bucks

you have to be expecting a lot of these headlights. And I'll be honest, they do stand up to it

by far my favorite modification I've done to this Tahoe so far. So by no means do I not like it, but that is an expensive price and something that you should

be paying attention to when you're making the purchase. Now the real question comes down to, would I recommend these headlights after a year of owning them

And yes, yes, I would. These things are incredible. I really, really like the way they look

I can't get over how much I like them. I have yet to find another pair of headlights that I like better

And considering how much they make. make this Tahoe look newer than they are. It just really is worth it for the price

Especially considering how often I see other Tahoe's and Suburans of this generation with the

stock headlights and I realize how much newer these headlights make this Tahoe look

So anyways, that is my thoughts and my recommendations on these headlights

I do have a paid link down in the description. If you guys want to get a pair of these for yourself

they are going to reeltruck.com and I get a commission if you guys decide to make that purchase

Also, make sure to subscribe and I have more product reviews like this coming out soon
