Overview
The PIAA H11 G3 LED Bulbs (part number 26-17411) are a pair of white LED replacement bulbs with an H11 base, rated 6200K and 23W. They are built for drivers who want brighter light from an H11 socket. Piaa Lighting lists them as Direct Fit, and the G3 design uses CREE XP-L LED chips on a thinner column.
The thinner column places the LED chips closer to where a halogen filament would sit. This lets the bulb use the factory housing more fully, producing a seamless beam with fewer dead spots and less light scatter. Both bulbs in the pair come with OE connectors, so each plugs into the factory socket without modification.
Key features
- Higher output CREE XP-L LEDs with a wider viewing angle and thinner circuit board
- Pulse width modulation control that PIAA says eliminates flickering in most applications
- Built-in Pulse Modulation Control in the drivers to reduce flicker at lower voltage in daytime running light mode
- Adjustable beam for fine-tuning alignment and optical output
- Redesigned fan that creates a vacuum effect and delivers 70% more airflow than the previous design
- Resonating fan noise reduced by 40%
- Computer-designed fins placed to keep the LEDs cool and at optimal light output
- Plug and play installation with no splicing, cutting or soldering
- PIAA offers a 5-year warranty
Headlight beam and aim
Switching from halogen to LED changes the light source, so the beam can spread differently even when the socket fits. A housing designed around a filament focuses light from a fixed point, and a chip-based bulb may need a moment of checking against the reflector and lens. Look at the beam pattern on the road and on a wall once the lamp is back together.
Heat and airflow matter for LED output over time. Bulbs with fins and a fan need clear air to move, so avoid crowding them with dust or covers that restrict the vents. Reseal the housing carefully so moisture stays out of the socket and connector.
- Check the beam on a wall after reassembly
- Keep the fan and fins clear of dust
- Seal the housing after the final test
- Replace the pair together for matched output

Vehicle fitment
No vehicle years, models or trims are named for this bulb. It is a direct fit design with the H11 base type, so confirm that your headlight or fog light takes an H11 bulb before buying.
Bulbs are larger than stock, so check clearance and fitment before purchase. On some models the bulb dust cover may not be used. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Plug and play connectors mean no splicing, cutting or soldering. Test-fit the bulb before final assembly to confirm the larger bulb body clears the housing and any dust cover. Because these bulbs do not comply with FMVSS108 or CMVSS108, check your local road-use rules before driving with them.
