Chrysler’s new Dodge Challenger muscle car features BiXenon projector headlamps from Samlip of Korea. The lamps closely mimic the style of the four round sealed-beam headlamps on the original < 1970-’74 Challenger which the new car’s design closely follows.
However, the old-fashioned appearance of the new front lamps hides new-fashioned lighting technology. The system uses a D1S burner and VOL aiming, and the low and high beam functions are produced by the outboard lamp. The inboard lamp contains a concealed amber bulb for position and direction indicator functions.
The new Challenger’s Samlip front lamps are the first ones Chrysler has purchased from a Korean manufacturer for the North American market, though Samlip has supplied General Motors for some years.
