Man, you are just like me! I LOVE LIGHTS!!! I had seen this difference in the color of the light (flickering, I love to see) but never knew for sure why was the light doing that... I thought that the light was adapting or something... Thanks! You made me understand better about Xenon Lights with the projector.
I heard someone say you cant use your normal H1 bulb in the projector housings for some reason? and that you have to upgrade to some DS2 or something like that to make it work is that true at all? I really want to put 2 of these on my cbr and my skidoo actually but I need to know what to order haha
Thanks for the video! I actually have been looking at these through "The Retrofit Source" for my '04 WRX. I have heard some debate on the clarity of the cutoff and how much light they throw, but going from Halogen to HID should be a huge step. Plus since I am all about doing it legally I wont be blinding people.
Cool. I did some more reading on them and found that they will do just fine. Since the truck is so tall, I am that real asshole blinding people and I hate to do that. So I'm putting them inbthe bumper and hopefully it will put the cutoff in a non-blinding spot. Anyways thanks for this vid and all the info you threw out there. Cheers!
@HAMMERxHCA Not a problem! I'm glad that you are taking your lighting situation seriously. I think your idea of putting them in the bumper is a fantastic one, and I hope you decide to post up videos when you're done! Feel free to post it as a video response if you want.
So I got a question, I have an 88 Chevy truck with a long travel front end, and the truck sits higher up front. What I want to do is install some projector fog lights, but swap the cheap projectors for these morimoto's. Would they be good enough to work as headlights? I want to rely on them for my headlights since they will be down lower on the bumper.
Can I wire up the solenoid to any 12 volt source or should I resist it down? Also I am running a h4 set up is there a special harness I have to buy or can I just splice some wires?
Awesome video and definitely NOT a waste of five minutes.
I'd much rather go through the effort (And/or cost) of a proper retrofit rather than be one of these retards that puts a Xenon bulb into a halogen housing.
@jaytabz Nope it works off of a 12v power source, but the wiring is a little different between cars. For example, if your stock headlights have a separate high and low beam, you wire the solenoid directly to the factory high beam wiring.
@mgs1983ai ohh alright thanks i have a 99 accord. but if i still want to use my highbeams and also use the high beams from the projector, can i just tap the solenoid wires to the high beams?
@jaytabz Yeah, the cool thing about the 5th and 6th gen Accord is that your low beams stay on when the high beams are activated. Connect the solenoid to your factory high beam wiring and you have quad high beams (HID + halogen).
I'm wondering why you don't want to bother with the D2Ss as well.
I'm on rs25.com as well, I have a 95 with newer lights
I have speculation, I'm getting an HID kit for christmas, but I want to buy a retrofit set up from TRS and they have bi xenon kits. I've looked into FX-Rs but apparently they are too big and are not for the novice.
However, the Moris seem to be more easy to install, but I've noticed the cut off is not as sharp as the FX-Rs and seem to be more of a budge retrofit projector.
Sick video! very descriptive and answers most questions ppl will ask. Im about to buy a pair of Mori's. Why do u say "Dont bother with the D2S version?" U can get really high quality bulbs in D2S.
It for not delay the max bright when first turn on? Because hid qhen turn on, normally start with one flash, and then increase bright to the normal bright.
I will retrofit a Subaru WRX, with Mini Morimoto H1 projectors and E55-R shrouds.
I am putting a set in a 2000 xterra and headlight housing is shallow and may have to cut the back to have bowl sit against it and use the screw mounts; but I am concerned that it might melt the headlight housing if it gets really hot?
Hey, thanks for the comment man. Nice information video. I love these projectors! I think the aiming is okay, I was on a sloped hill when I made that video.
Sweet vid man. I've been trying to get a good review. I'm in a groupbuy for a set of these with shrouds for $105 shipped. Did u retro them into a vehicle? How did it turn out?
morimoto minis are good but they got nothing on Fx-Rs.

How fast does the ballast warm up the bulbs to the white color?

The edge of the metal for the hi/low shutter is causing the light to separate into its individual colors, which the lens enhances this.

Do you have to have a stock system set up to activate the solenoid or can that be done easily?

do u need a certain harness to control the reflector for the high beam and low beam?
coz im planning on buying some on theretrosource. COM

Hello,
What is this battery?
It for not delay the max bright when first turn on? Because hid qhen turn on, normally start with one flash, and then increase bright to the normal bright.
I will retrofit a Subaru WRX, with Mini Morimoto H1 projectors and E55-R shrouds.
Sorry for my English.

You know how hot the bowl gets?
I am putting a set in a 2000 xterra and headlight housing is shallow and may have to cut the back to have bowl sit against it and use the screw mounts; but I am concerned that it might melt the headlight housing if it gets really hot?
