Baja Designs Headlight Replacement Kit

Baja Designs Headlight Replacement Kits: Race-Proven LED Performance

Baja Designs has built its reputation as "The Scientists of Lighting" through decades of engineering lighting solutions that perform under the harshest conditions on earth. That same DNA flows directly into their headlight replacement kits — a lineup engineered not just to replace a stock bulb, but to fundamentally transform how you see the trail, road, or desert at night.

Founded in San Diego in 1992, Baja Designs' roots trace back to founder Alan Roach, an avid Baja 1000 motorcycle racer who fine-tuned motorcycle lighting to maximize rider comfort, speed, and safety. That race heritage is not marketing language — it is the technical foundation that every headlight replacement kit is built upon.

Key Product Lines

The Baja Designs headlight replacement lineup spans multiple platforms and performance levels. At the flagship end sits the DOT LP6 LED Headlight Replacement, the brand's first-ever road-legal headlight kit. The DOT LP6 features six advanced projector optics that deliver precise, focused output, integrating both high and low beams plus available white or amber daytime running lights. It is fully compliant with FMVSS 108 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108) and is offered in vehicle-specific fitments for the Jeep Wrangler JL, Gladiator JT, and JK platforms, as well as universal kits for broader compatibility.

For off-road motorcycles and dual-sport riders, Baja Designs offers the XL80 Headlight Replacement Kit — designed in partnership with Motominded for platforms like the 2024+ KTM EXC-F and XCF-W series. The XL80 delivers an impressive 9,022 raw lumens and comes pre-installed with Baja Designs' Trail Lens, engineered specifically for technical, first-through-fourth gear singletrack riding. The Trail Lens redirects light from the center beam into near and mid-field peripheral areas to improve visibility through vertical transitions and tight turns. Variants include kits with a dimmer switch or an OEM-compatible Hi/Low harness that allows use of the stock hi/lo switch.

For riders with existing Baja Designs dual-sport headlight shells, the Squadron Sport and Squadron Pro Dual Sport replacement kits offer direct drop-in LED upgrades, outputting 3,162 and 4,095 raw lumens respectively, giving legacy system owners a clear path to modern LED performance.
