The Look

Quad round, familiar and expressive

Release Date January 11, 2026. Shipping February 1, 2026.

The South Portland Headlight Kit is rooted in the quad round look that many Vanagon owners have admired for decades. With four 5.75-inch round lights, this kit gives the front of the van a balanced, confident face that feels both classic and personal.

The design nods to the quad round grills popular in the 1990s, including the Taifun-style look and the well-known South African layouts, while remaining distinctly Vanabliss in execution. It feels period-correct without being locked to a single moment in time.

What makes South Portland special is how open-ended it is. The same kit can look understated and original, or bold and expressive, depending on the lights you choose.

What the Kit Does

Designed to support modern lighting, your way

The South Portland Headlight Kit is a complete system designed specifically for the Vanagon.

  • Supports modern 5.75-inch LED lighting as well as standard incandescent setups
  • Accepts 5.75-inch round lights using H1 or H4 connections
  • Allows all four lights to match, or be mixed between inner and outer positions
  • Uses stock adjusters for proper beam aim and full adjustability
  • Designed for easy at-home installation
  • Made from strong, outdoor-rated, UV-safe PETG
  • Requires minimal, hidden trimming behind the grille
  • Works with stock wiring when paired with the Vanabliss wiring connector

As with all Vanabliss kits, the build quality and materials are the same across the lineup. The difference here is purely the look and layout.

Lighting Layout and Configuration

Flexible by design, intentional in function

The South Portland layout gives you flexibility without compromising beam control.

  • Outer lights are used for low and high beam operation
  • Inner lights are dedicated to additional high beam and daytime running light use
  • Low beam is intentionally not used on the inner lights to maintain a clean, controlled beam pattern

This approach keeps the lighting purposeful and avoids unnecessary overlap, while still giving you the visual presence of a full quad round setup.

You can choose:

  • Four matching lights for a uniform look
  • Different inner and outer lights to create contrast
  • LED or incandescent lighting depending on your preference

Who This Kit Is For

A good fit if you like classic style with creative freedom

The South Portland Headlight Kit is a great choice if you:

  • Appreciate classic quad round Vanagon styling
  • Enjoy having multiple aesthetic options
  • Like tailoring the look of your van to your own taste
  • Want a kit that feels heritage-aware without being locked into one exact look

From stock-clear lenses to amber, halos, X-patterns, or subtle accents, this kit gives you room to experiment while still feeling cohesive to the Vanagon design.

Installation Confidence

Straightforward install, familiar process

Vanabliss kits are designed so most owners can install them at home using basic tools.

  • Clear instructions included
  • No visible exterior modification
  • Minimal trimming is hidden behind the grille

Most installs can be completed comfortably before lunch.

Wiring and Power Notes

Important guidance for LED setups

When running two LED headlights in the South Portland configuration, a headlight relay kit is required.

This ensures:

  • Adequate power delivery to both lights
  • Protection of the stock headlight switch
  • Long-term reliability of the electrical system

For this purpose, we recommend the T3 Techniques headlight relay kit, which is known for its quality and compatibility with Vanagon wiring.

Incandescent setups typically place less demand on the system, but proper wiring is always encouraged.

If you have questions about your specific lighting choice, we’re happy to help.
