    they have a review online

    low beams almost 900 lumens and high beams 1700 lumens. You are looking at roughly 3 times the lumens compared to halogens

    the triangular plug will connect to motor on the headlights. the switch has a relay with 4 wires. basic wires for a switch: ground, +12V, illumination (you can tap to a close by switch) and acc i think.

    So how would they compare to a 3,000 lumen drop in bulb such as VLeds or one of the HR bulbs?

    you cannot really compare lumens from a drop in vs lumens measured from headlights output on a wall. I had the vleds micro LED drop in in stock housings. They were brighter but all over the place since the oem reflectors were not built for led.
    the morimotos were designed from the start for LEDs so it's a lot cleaner cut off.

    I have the Micro LEDs now but the output seems to be controlled compared to previous versions like the LMZs.

    I was about to pull the trigger on the Sequoia conversion, since I am not a fan of "cheap" replacements, but just now, I stumbled upon those and they seem to look pretty decent. Those of you who have the Morimotos, how is the quality compared to OEM? Do they have a cheap, plastic look and feel to them?

    I added one to my cart just to try Garagetime code. The site says the code expired Apr 3rd. Was it supposed to be extended?

    The code was not extended I'm afraid. But if you had troubles getting your order in due to the Code box disappearing, shoot me a PM and we'll see if there's something we can do!

    Most likely the next sizeable sale is going to be Black Friday, but I am honestly unsure. I don't know about a sale until right before it goes live, so I'm just as much in the dark as you are! If you sub to our Email subscription, you'll be sent a Flyer when a sale does launch!

    How do these work with the DRL? Is it a separate lead or is it tied into oem DRL?

    We are out of stock at the moment on the 2nd Gen. headlights until April 2nd is what our ETA sheet is showing. We'll be receiving more than enough for current backorders so we'll have plenty left in-stock! :)

    We do have them in-stock at the moment! :) Next restock is early next month too so we should be in good shape!

    I don't know of any promos at the moment to go along with the XB headlights, but we're always updating our promo page so that may be something to keep tabs on, or follow us on social media!

    I thought I had seen where they were back in stock. So I bought some and got the notice that they are on back order. No real hurry,I guess.
