GROUP BUY: Morimoto XB LED Headlights

Yes we can arrange a group buy. We'll set one up after the Black Friday rush is over. Right not TRS/Morimoto are closed until next week (I reckon they have staff there but are busy filling orders from customers and dealers). So i'll talk to my wholesale guy at TRS/Morimoto next week and we'll get one setup.

Hi all, I purchased a 2018 raptor that was stolen and striped for my son. We replaced the front head lights with the Morimoto XB LED Plug & Play Headlight Assemblies For 2015-2017 Ford F-150 raptor 2016 - 2019 LF502 LF504 (White DRL (For OEM LED)"

The lights look amazing however the front parking and marker lights are intermittent. Has anyone else had this issue?

Did you see this, by chance?

Anyone posted a video or photos of how they perform against the OEM LED headlights yet?? Curious to see them light the street at night showing before/after performance pics or video.
Hell, it would be nice to see someone on YouTube do a review with a light meter on a White wall or on the ground, side by side in the same photo or video frame.......even cover one at a time to compare the alternating patterns/output side by side.

Gen1 Raptors don't have XB LED Headlights. I think you meant the Gen1 HID? Or did you want to see these against a Gen2s LED Headlights?

We did reviews a few years back (against a blank wall also) on the Gen2 Morimoto XB LED Headlights. We measured about 1000 lux compared to that of about 500 or so on the OEM LED. So 2x the output.

I'd reckon these Gen1s put out about the same amount of light. Maybe around 800-1000 lux. Naturally the OEM HID are not going to be as good, but a retrofit housing with upgraded LEDs and Ballasts would put out more then the XB LEDs. But that's a different animal of course.

I meant Gen 2 Raptor OEM LEDs vs Mori XB LEDs.
I saw 1 video on YouTube that attempted, but wasn’t a fair fight. They put F150 Halogens at 500 vs Mori LEDs at over 1000.....that was like apples vs oranges.
