2012 Mitsubishi Lancer Headlights
Headlights are absolutely fitted to the 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer and required for road use. This is confirmed by the Mitsubishi Lancer (CJ, 2012) Owner’s Manual and CJ Service Manual lighting sections, as well as Australian Design Rule 13/00 and the NZ Vehicle Lighting Rule, which mandate headlamp fitment and performance.
The Lancer’s headlights are there to do two key jobs: help the driver see what’s ahead at night and in poor weather, and make the car clearly visible to others. Most 2012 Lancer variants use halogen bulbs (commonly H11 for low beam and HB3/9005 for high beam), while some higher‑spec models may run HID/D2S projector units with auto‑levelling and washers to meet the rules. Either way, bright, correctly aimed lights make a big difference to night‑time confidence and safety.
When it comes to servicing, bulbs gradually lose output before they fail, so if the beams look a bit yellow or dull, it’s worth replacing them in pairs. Stick with quality, ADR/NZS‑compliant globes to stay legal and avoid glare. For halogen setups, avoid touching the glass with bare fingers
