What Are Hyundai H100 Lighting?
Lighting covers headlamps, tail lamps, fog lamps, indicators and the cabin lighting, and on a Hyundai the specification is set by the trim level rather than the model. Halogen, projector and LED units were fitted across the same cars, and they are not interchangeable — swapping between them takes the loom and control gear behind the lamp, not just the lamp. Facelift units generally will not go into a pre-facelift body either, because the surrounding panels changed with them.
Locally, the two things that finish a headlamp are UV and gravel. Sun exposure clouds the lens until the beam pattern is a suggestion rather than a pattern, and stone chips off unsealed roads do the rest. Both are roadworthy issues as well as safety ones. When ordering, tell us the side, the generation, and whether yours is halogen, projector or LED — and if you can, send a photograph of the existing unit. It settles the question faster than any description of it will.

SA-Market H100 Derivatives We Supply Lighting For
The H100 reached South Africa as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, running the 2.5 and 2.6 diesels as badged on the SA derivatives. Lighting fitment splits on the generation code long before it splits on trim, and again between petrol and CRDi diesel derivatives. Dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model. Find your derivative below, then send the code from your VIN plate with your enquiry.
- Hyundai H100 Porter 2.5 D
- Hyundai H100 Porter II 2.6 D
- Hyundai H100 H100 Bakkie 2.6 D
Sourcing note: the H100 no Kia equivalent — a dedicated light-commercial cab-over platform, which gives us a second place to look when local stock runs dry.

What changes across the range
Ordering lighting for a H100 starts with the generation: Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie.

What we check on lighting
- •The generation code, because H100 parts lists split on it
- •The engine family — this H100 was sold with the 2.5 and 2.6 diesels as badged on the SA derivatives
- •The side, the generation, and a photo of the existing unit if you have one
- •Whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within its generation
In South Africa the H100 is mostly small-business transport that is loaded to its limit daily, which is why clutch, driveline and front-suspension parts dominate demand rather than trim or electronics. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai H100 Lighting FAQs
Does lighting fitment change across H100 generations?
Yes, and it is the first thing we check. The H100 sold here as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, and dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model. Give us the generation code and the rest follows quickly.
Which H100 engines were sold in South Africa?
the 2.5 and 2.6 diesels as badged on the SA derivatives. Lighting fitment often follows the engine family rather than the model name, so the code on the block is worth reading before you order.
How do I turn on the lights in my Hyundai?
Locate the rotary light control switch on your dashboard, typically on the left side near the steering column. Turn it to the first position for sidelights, second position for dipped headlights, or set to AUTO for automatic light activation based on ambient conditions. The green light symbol on your dashboard confirms activation.
Are LED headlights legal in South Africa?
Yes, LED headlights are legal in South Africa provided they are factory-fitted or professionally installed aftermarket units that meet SABS standards and are correctly aimed to avoid blinding oncoming traffic. Retrofitting non-compliant LED bulbs into halogen housings is illegal and will result in roadworthy test failure. Genuine Hyundai LED upgrades cost between R3,500-R7,500 per unit.
What does the warning light mean on my Hyundai?
A bulb failure warning light (exclamation mark inside a bulb symbol) indicates one or more exterior lights have failed. Check all headlights, tail lights, brake lights and indicators immediately. In newer Hyundai models, the touchscreen display specifies which bulb has failed, making diagnosis easier before your next trip.
How much does it cost to replace a Hyundai headlight bulb in South Africa?
Halogen bulbs for models like the i20 or Accent cost R150-R450 per bulb, while H7 or H4 performance bulbs range from R300-R650. Complete headlight assemblies for accidents or cracked lenses cost R2,600-R6,800 depending on the model. Labour at Hyundai dealerships adds R400-R850 to the total.
Can I drive with a broken tail light in South Africa?
No, driving with non-functional tail lights or brake lights is illegal under South African traffic regulations and poses serious safety risks, especially during load shedding hours when street lighting is affected. You face fines up to R1,500 and your vehicle will fail its roadworthy test. Replace faulty bulbs immediately—most cost under R200.
