LAair series, an upgraded version of LED bulbs designed to address common issues faced by vehicle owners. At Lasfit, we are dedicated to providing a comfortable and hassle-free experience with LED lights. We have identified two common challenges in the market - limited installation space and insufficient brightness or beam pattern.

To overcome the issue of narrow installation space, we have revolutionized the design of the LAair series. By reducing the size of the LED lights and eliminating bulky components like fans, we have created a sleek and compact solution that easily fits within the limited space in your vehicle. Installing our bulbs is now a breeze, even for challenging models like those with H7 headlights, thanks to our special adapters and smaller-sized LED lights.

In addition to the compact design, we have also focused on enhancing brightness and beam pattern. Our LAair series LED bulbs deliver exceptional brightness, ensuring optimal visibility and safety on the road. With a carefully engineered beam pattern, you can enjoy superior lighting performance without compromising on glare or scattering.

Main Features of LAair Series

Easy and Hassle-Free Installation with the MINI Body Design


The LAair series features a compact and convenient design, similar in size to OEM halogen bulbs. With lengths as short as 2.73 inches for H11 and 1.79 inches for H7, these LED bulbs effortlessly fit into the factory housing. You can securely put the dust cover back on without any installation troubles. The bottom of the LED bulb, where the fan is located, has a bulk of 20*6MM, ensuring compatibility with vehicles that may have eccentric assembly. Say goodbye to any hindrance during the installation process.

Customer Feedback

*All the photos and content are created and authorized by the Lasfit customers, Many thanks to them for sharing such great content and stunning pictures about LAair series with us!

Ive changed every halogen bulb inside/out to LED. These were the fog lights changed from factory halogen. Thank you for making a quality product and the quick refund when I ordered the wrong size for my turns/ ineer tail light bulbs. The car looks great and are much brighter inside/out!---LAair H11 for Justin

Thanks to Lasfit for sending me the new LAair Series Headlight bulbs they are noticeably brighter than my old LA Plus Series. These new ones also have a much quieter fan than my old ones which I really like. So if you don’t want fan noise get these. And if you still have halogen bulbs definitely get these---LAair H11 for C.B.

Common in computers. Its basically a fluid filled bearing for smoother cooler operation. Really a marketing gimmick word for we use quality bearings instead of a bushing and dab of grease.
Ah...good to know! Thanks for the info...

Yea but what LASFIT fails to do just like every other manufacturer; clarify these and all other LED bulbs are not to be used in halogen reflector headlights.

And I think they do this on purpose because I imagine they make quite a bit of money on ignorance on the end user.

They know the customer just sees the word halogen and assumes it can replace any halogen bulb and they never take the time to say these are for projector headlights.

Thank you for your comment! LED technology has become quite mature, and high-quality LED bulbs can produce a light pattern almost identical to that of OEM halogen bulbs.

Does almost identical make them DOT legal for use in a housing designed for halogen bulbs? Unless DOT approved for use on the road, there should be a very clear "Approved for off-road use only." disclaimer on any post from a seller of such lights. You could even add it as link in your signature. I saw a YouTube reviewer that received lights (switchback fog lights) to review installed the lights in his low beam and was driving around switching his low beams between white and yellow. My RS needs new fog bulbs as the left just burn out, and I was thinking about the switchbacks, that were on sale for $99 instead of the normal $129, but with the possible legality issues that would mean I could only use them on the track at night and there was still the possible fitment issue with the RS's fog light design. So, I decided to just get the Sylvania H8 amber fogs instead since they are DOT legal.

Good luck. Selling LED bulbs to halogen housing users is a very high reward vs. nearly non-existent risk market. All the manufacturers know this.
Until a crack-down comes, look at what happened with all of the tuners that use to disable emissions sensors, or the shops that sold "test" pipes. The fines they faced should discourage sellers from selling similar non-road legal produces if they know the majority of buyers ignore that. If the problem becomes prevalent enough, action will likely come. The responsible action of a company that wants to sell legal products one use, but they find much of their sales are being used illegally in another way, would be to discontinue that product, and work on developing options that are legal in both use cases. It seems like designing whole light housings that are built for LED from the start are legal if they pass all the test and get certified. I have way less issues of light bars and add on lights that are not road legal being sold, since that is very clear when they are being used they are not legal, and it's easy for any law enforcement that recognizes them as off-road only to enforce that. With lights that fit into OE housings, it's too easy for the buyer to play dumb, or maybe really be dumb, and harder for enforcement since that would require more technical knowledge about the vehicle in question and being able to identify the bulb (thought the massive heat sink on the back is normally easy to spot if the light has easily replaced bulbs).

IMO, there's misconception about LED bulbs used in place of halogen filament reflectors. I've said this many times here but the roots of the bad rap for LED mods can be placed on the early generations of cheap replacement drop-ins (still a majority of the market) that do not bother to take into consideration just how bulb/reflector relationship work and that every reflector housing is designed around a very specific projection point...ie the filament...which has a very specific dimension and location within the housing...every filament bulb shares this geometry and that is why you can buy any replacement halogen bulb and it will not affect the projection pattern in any headlamp...only one type of LED drop-ins do this...

Again, I have to emphasize, 1 to 1 design LED mimic that condition...the headlamp's reflector doesn't care what type of lighting source is used as long as the light source is in the EXACT same place and is of the EXACT same size...if these conditions are met, the light projection will be as intended by the OEM who designed the lamp reflectors...albeit the resulting output will be either brighter, dimmer, cooler, warmer depending on the brand...but the projection area and direction will be the same...

Cheap drop-ins don't care how large or misplaced the source is relative to the reflectors and therefore scatters light to places not intended by the reflector's design...resulting in GLARE and of course, Haters...analogy, there's Fart cans and then there's Borla...both are intended to produce noise but with different results...

That said, even 1:1 LEDs that are too high powered will over come the lamp projection pattern...whether it has a mechanical cut off or not...I don't believe the 1:1 LEDs that are being sold today (and there're only a handful) approach that type of power output...the cooling requirement wouldn't allow it to fit into the lamp housing realistically...

I've been using the same 1:1 LED bulbs (JDM ASTAR) for over 130K miles (correctly adjusted to my level) and not a single on coming vehicle has ever flashed me...my light pattern has the same cut off as original only brighter and of course, more reliable (still using the same set of LED bulbs!)...when I pull up behind a car at night, the cut off stops below the bottom of the rear glass...Over 130K miles, I've driven towards and behind countless vehicles at night and, of course that includes LEO cruisers...no objections...I think the whole point of a properly designed, fitted and aimed 1:1 LED should improve lighting for the driver, blend in but go unnoticed...

I find the newer vehicles with high tech, high powered LEDs or Lasers much more offensive than anything I could put out...sure, their high tech lighting is extremely powerful at what they're aimed at and "DOT approved"...but inevitably, the on coming driver will fall outside of their cut off and receive an atomic flash...those are way more annoying than the NC Squatters with the $5 Autozone LEDs GLARING headlights pointed at the sky...

OK, explain to me how a group of LED chips on two sides of a flat board can even be close to the same light pattern as the light pattern of a halogen filement, which is essential a line, emitting light evenly in 360 degrees for a specific length. That is what the halogen reflector is designed for.

A single line of LED chips is already larger than the filement in a halogen bulb. Much less a 2Ă—3 array of chips as used by many LED bulbs, including apparently the Lasfit.

The 1:1 that these bulbs refer to is limited to the length of the LED array and its distance from the bulbs mounting surface.

This is why the use of any LED replacement bulb used as a low beam replacement in a reflector housing designed for halogen bulbs, will have a fuzzy cutoff line, with misplaced hotspots and stray light above the cutoff line. Using then in high beam only positions will at least not blind other oncoming vehicles or vehicles in front of you, but will give you less than optimal projection down road. Oh yeah, not DOT approved.

Full disclaimer: I did infact run the very same JDM ASTAR bulbs in my car. I remember correctly they are rated considerably lower in lumens than most of the new bulbs and only have a single row of chips on each side, not a 2-wide array. The Rangers halogen housing did not allow the low beams to be correctly clocked, which only marginally helps the cutoff. I was never flashed while I had them either, but was never really happy with the down road visibility either. When one of mine died I found the JDM no longer make LED headlight replacement bulbs. I have currently replace my halogen assemblies with designed for LED projector assemblies. The cutoff is now sharp as a razer and can easily be adjusted to just below the rear window on cars in front and the down road visibility and ditch lighting on high is light years better than the old halogen assemblies ever was.

So your lights are DOT approved? And I’m fork lift certified?

Even your example image has horrific light thrown above the cutoff.

illegal, plain and simple.
