From a technical standpoint, HELLA auxiliary headlamps are highly sophisticated and should therefore be specially protected in order to preserve their long-term function. In tough conditions, even the sturdiest, most hard-wearing headlamps can be damaged by gravel throw or accidental glancing impacts with obstacles.
For this reason alone, the headlamp should have reliable protection.
This problem is eliminated with precise-fitting protective caps with a HELLA logo: they protect the headlamp from damage when it's switched off. Furthermore, they help avoid contamination, which also has a positive effect on safety by allowing the light output to be directed to the road more effectively.
