    HR site is now accepting pre-orders for the XB LED headlights with the amber DRLs. This includes 2nd and 3rd Gen Tundras, 14+ 4Runners, and 16+ Tacomas. They have pretty hefty price tags.....

    What’s the advantage of having the amber or white? Is purely for aesthetics? They look nice but $1300 is steep for some headlights.

    Will they continue to be available with a choice of white or amber DRL moving fwd? Still stumped why the 07-13 Tundra is the only headlight in Morimoto's whole line that is not an LED projector. Disappointing

    The White or Amber DRL options are purely an appearance preference, they both perform identically! :)

    Yessir, White OR Amber DRL versions. You'd need to choose when ordering, as you cannot select between the 2 color options once installed on the fly. The Amber XB headlights had to be re-designed with a new DRL board/Drivers to accommodate for the full-time Amber coloring. :)

    Morimoto has always aimed for an OEM+ appearance, not like what you see from Recon/Spyder/Alpha Rex with the all-new designs. These housings for the 07-13' were modeled after the 14+ OEM LED headlights for the Tundra.

    Also the new versions use all 3 projectors for low beam as to where the ones I bought in September use just 2 for low beam.

    For the 14+ Tundra, yessir! The projectors did get an update with their functions, so the Amber headlights will perform better than the White version.

    For that price tag I'd rather buy the OEM 18+ for my 16.

    I've never read any reviews about the the Morimoto XBs vs OEM led light out put. Currently I have OEM LEDs but my custom projectors were slightly better in terms of output. The reliability, or lack thereof, of the custom projectors is why I switched to OEM LEDs.

    I was interested in ordering them, but I was hoping they would have some sort of pre-order discount or group buy. If so I probably would have ordered some.
