One of the big selling points to matrix headlights is the ability to mask of certain areas to not light up. This allows for fuller light coverage since usually headlights have to cut-off the light a certain point to avoid blinding oncoming traffic.
Think of it another way, if you had non-matrix headlights such as LEDs or HIDs or even older halogen, your light cut-off would be at that lowest line or lower and across the entire beam. The area you're seeing around that is technically what you had to activate high beams for previously.
Try not to look at the void but all of the added visibility you get thanks to matrix technology.
This is not an issue. It was designed this way and that's why it is called "matrix", which has columns of LEDs separated by these dividers within the headlight housing, so that different segment of lights can be turned on or off depending on the location of the incoming traffic and/or traffic next and in front of you.
Mine doesn’t seem that high. In fact, it’s about the same as my HR-V was after I asked the Honda dealer to lower the aim.I've noticed that my model Y headlights are pointed pretty high. and that little spot helps not blind oncoming traffic.
You should probably adjust them using the service menu. Mine aren't high at all.I've noticed that my model Y headlights are pointed pretty high. and that little spot helps not blind oncoming traffic.
Not correct. if you look at the MYP's matrix headlight there are several compartment/boxes with LEDs inside. The wall between those compartment/boxes are the cause of the dark spots.Not quite.
What you see in the picture is a “standard” cutoff for headlights designed for it. Doesn’t matter if it’s Matrix or not. My, now traded in, 2019 Honda HR-V Touring had LEDs that had the same cutoff pattern (dark spot for oncoming vehicles).
The benefit of the Matrix is ACTIVELY masking the headlight to changes in what is out there. So, the black spot is supposed to move with the oncoming car.
However, this is currently disabled because it wasn’t approved by DOT/NTHSA until recently.
This is why, for the time being, having Matrix headlights or not, makes no difference.
I think you are confusing what is Matrix and what is normal “LED.”Not correct. if you look at the MYP's matrix headlight there are several compartment/boxes with LEDs inside. The wall between those compartment/boxes are the cause of the dark spots.
