Morimoto LED XB Headlight review

How’s the m cutoff compared to the Lexus 350’s?

 

@mesojdm any further input on these? Enjoying them? Getting any compliments?

 

I still need to get some output comparison shots. (Stock VS oemassive VS XB VS MLED). I haven’t really drove my truck much at night. I will say the Morimoto MLED projectors in the wife’s T4R have a VERY nice crisp and colorful cutoff.. just Wish the XB’s had the same
Heres a shot of the MLED

Very close. I’d give the edge to the RX’s. See above pics

 

Very nice output. Also, will the mled be a drop in just like rx330 projectors in our taco headlight light shell?

 

Looks like a big improvement over my HID kit from TRS.. I'm still dealing with that damn "bulb bounce" issue over bumps and vibrations. 1200 though... wew!! I'll have to let it simmer.... that's half the price of say an Icon Stage 3 kit on sale lol

 

Any updates on the comparison @MESO ? Still on the fence about doing a retro or getting these. Thanks!

 

I'll bring my LUX meter home tomorrow and see what kind of numbers it puts out

 

Showdown happening once the sun goes down...

 

Showdown at sundown! Pretty excited.

 

I think it moved!!

 

Any update on the comparison? Thanks!

 

Meso is quite possibly the busiest person on this forum as a whole... he doesnt have time for this while he is hand making all the stuff we want and need
With that being said how did the comparison go meso?!?

 

sorry,
I passed out early last night
I'll do it tonight

 

What?! Who said you could sleep?

 

Its cool i already purchased the lights so nothing you say will make me buy them again haha.. you just keep on working on those key fobs so i can buy that while i wait

 

Let's see some lux numbers and high quality pics. Flapfapfapfap #nolightbars

 

WELL here ya go folks. Don't hold me liable for any measurements. This is backyard redneck testing.(my. neighbors probably thought I was a little off. All setups were LED. EXCEPT the stock headlight which has a halogen bulb. I wish I would have had an RX350 handy..but unfortunately not
Draw your own conclusions.
I tried to do an accurate comparison of DRIVERS side ONLY (keep it easier to compare). The XB kinda cheats because it has DUAL low beam projectors.... so I will compare it to my Bi-LED dual 3" retrofit. (that's only fair right?! )

Onto some pics. 56K take a seat

Man I really wanted to see the rx350 in there. Thanks for taking the time anyways meso.

 

@MESO are the MLed drop in like the RX350?

 

Meso giving the people what they want! Thanks!

The XB's look great, look pretty bright minus the nice blue cut off.
