Morimoto LED XB Headlight review

Put them in mine and love them. Just cant afford a second set for the wifey tacoma. She's jealous. Lol

 

I dig those bumpers

 

So are the LED's for the lighting enclosed?

 

yes, non swappable

 

Anyone know of a coupon/discount code on these? Wife hit a pole in my rig and snapped the HL tabs. Zip ties work well for now, but checking to see if there are any TW discounts

 

Thank you! The Honeybadger was my fav at the time I purchased these. Since I've seen one or two more I also like.

 

Haven't seen a discount code since before christmas. They are a bit spendy, but I personally love their look. Good luck!!

 

If you're interested in a set if OE perfect condition headlights, I have the one I pulled out of my Tacoma to mount my Morimoto . We could negotiate a price if your interested.

 

How’s it going everyone, I’m new to the forum and was interested in doing some modifications to my Tacoma and the Morimoto XBs were one I wanted to start with. My Tacoma has the ugly chrome headlights with no LEDs at all. The DRLs are amber bulbs so I was wondering if these would work on it? I tried finding the answer on this thread but didn’t have any luck.

 

The best price I have seen for XB's is $925 a pair.

Not sure how long this price will last.

 

Thanks all! I picked a set of Xbs up. Just waiting for the fender to come out of paint and a couple of other parts to arrive before I bring this somma b***** back to life

 

@MESO question for you and for anyone else that is running the lights.

I installed my set a few days ago and notice two things.

1. When I have the DRLs on I get some static on the radio, a few stations. I contact the retrofit source and they told me the following:

"Travis M (The Retrofit Source)

I have reported this issue to the manufacturer, but as of yet there has not been a fix produced.

I suspect that it will eventually manifest as a set of LED driver replacements, but I don't have any definitive information available yet."

Anyone has this issue?

2. Is it normal that when I'm running the DRLs on the brightness is superior than when the complete headlights are on? I seen some pictures and it looks like they brightness should be the same on both cases. Can anyone confirm this? Please see my attached pictures for reference.

Thank you guys.

 

As for the static i have none ... as far as the drl goes .. mine dims when the headlights are on as well.. pretty sure thats how most if not all drl’s work

 

Thanks for the feedback

 

mine do the same brighter DRL

and anyone looking to get these when you go to align the beams there is a sticker by adjusting screws that says do not turn adjustment more then 3 full turns. I had to almost 3 turns to get them to start moving. mine were about 4 turns to align if i remember properly. Seems others have had same occurrence.

 

yeah I had to crank em WAY more than 3 turns, more like 6 full turns for me. ratcheting wrench makes life easier

 

Did you get any static on your radio, was reading that some had issues with them

 

I've heard of this issue also. I'm either extremely lucky, or have all the necessary equipment and am properly grounded. Lol. Either way, no, I do not have any radio interference

 

Neither do I.
