All motor vehicles in Texas are required to have two working headlights that are white in color. It's also important that your headlights aren't obscured by a cover or grill. Bulbs must have a "DOT" or appropriate SAE stamp on them. This really only becomes an issue with some aftermarket lights that are not equipped from the auto manufacturer.

To ensure that you're not breaking any rules of the road, read on to learn the basics of Texas headlight laws. In Texas, headlights must be used at nighttime and when visibility is less than 1,000 feet. This varies from other stricter states, like Arkansas, which requires drivers to also use headlights when the windshield wipers are in use.
There are only laws for headlight height and distance they must illuminate (150 ft). They cannot be red in color and they must be functional and condensation free.
Texas Transportation Code Sec. § 547.321 Headlamps Required (a) A motor vehicle shall be equipped with at least two headlamps. (b) At least one headlamp shall be mounted on each side of the front of the vehicle.
In most states, the low-beam setting on headlights must project 100 feet in front of the vehicle and the high-beam setting must project 350 feet in front of the vehicle. Texas and Arizona law state this differently, saying only that the headlight beam must be visible from 1,000 feet away, not that it must project a path 1,000 feet away.
