The design of the TRUCKSTAR LED is characterised by its uniqueness in the combination of two functions - "heat dissipation" and "optimum reflector design" . The optics are rounded off by a compact lamp size for optimum fitting accuracy in the headlamp.

Furthermore, the lamps are vibration-resistant to impacts, for example due to uneven road surfaces.

Quality and performance make every OSRAM product an OSRAM original. Unfortunately, product piracy has reached a point where it is difficult to visually distinguish between original and counterfeit.

OSRAM has therefore integrated security features into the production process that allow you to authenticate your lamps online in two simple steps.

OSRAM offers a 4-year guarantee for all TRUCKSTAR LED lamps. One extra year of guarantee can be secured if the TRUCKSTAR LED lamps are purchased at and installed by a professional workshop. Find more info here.
