Auto Headlights & Interior Light Bulbs
Need a new light bulb for your car or truck? Not a problem. Whether your car is brand new or several years old, we have the right headlight or brake light bulb for your specific make and model. If you’re not sure what you’re looking for, our in-store experts can help you find a solution featuring your desired bulb duration and brightness. We carry three main types of headlight bulbs which are detailed below.
- LED Bulbs – LED bulbs consume less power and last much longer than other bulb types. In some cases, an LED bulb may last the entire lifetime of your vehicle.
- Halogen/Filament Bulbs – Halogen bulbs function similarly to household bulbs and are both affordable and easy to replace.
- Xenon/HID Bulbs – High-Intensity Discharge, or HID bulbs, use xenon gas and a ballast to create white light. HID bulbs shine brighter and last longer than halogen bulbs but may take a few seconds to reach their full power.
Key Fob & Key Cutting Service
Replacing your key fob at a dealership can end up costing you hundreds of dollars. What’s worse, you’ll probably end up waiting weeks to receive it. At Batteries Plus Bulbs, we realize that when your car key fob stops working, it’s a big deal. That’s why we offer same-day key fob replacement service at the majority of our stores.
The remotes and keys you receive will work exactly like your vehicle’s original factory remote. Even better, this service costs up to 50% less than what your dealership charges. Here’s a list of the types of fobs and keyless entry remotes that we service.
- Flip Keys – A combination key and remote fob in which the key flips out at the press of a button.
- Fobiks – Remotes that use infrared technology to start the vehicle.
- Remote Head Keys – A key in which the remote buttons are physically attached to the key itself.
- Smart Remotes – Remotes which allow drivers to operate their vehicles by simply bring the remote into proximity with their car.
- Standard Remotes – Any remote that is physically separated from the unit.
We also offer key fob battery replacement and key cutting services. Many times, when a key fob stops working, it’s due to a spent battery. We can swap this out for you in a matter of minutes. Plus, if you need a spare key for a car, truck or other vehicle, we can handle that for you too.
