09-18 RAM Morimoto XB LED INSTALL | Headlight Revolution

[@mursesherminator]

I just installed my driver side XB on my 2014 Ram 3500 w/ OEM projector lights. This video beats the SHIT out of the Morimoto instructions on their website. Those instructions have you removing part of the wiring harness they include to make this headlight work with OEM reflector headlights and tapping your fusebox for power for the DRLs. GARBAGE!!! I followed those instructions for about an hour before I looked this video up. I ended up just plugging it in and disconnecting the solid-on turn signal connector to activate the sequential turn signals and, EUREKA! Everything worked! They are much brighter than my OEM headlights, even with GTR Ultra II LED low-beam bulbs in them! I'm gonna drive with the XB driver side headlight and the OEM passenger headlight tomorrow before sunrise to get a true idea of how they compare. Either way, this video was WAY helpful in saving time and energy doing useless shit the Morimoto has you doing to install these lights! Thanks HR!!!

[@86FxBdyCpe]

Just an FYI for Ram owners in the U.S., the factory DRL setting is usually not "enabled " in the infotainment center. Therefore, connecting as seen here will not provide DRL's. Two options exist, use the provided DRL power harness to connect directly to the power distribution box or see your local dealer to have the DRL setting enabled and added to the infotainment center.

Good tip!

[@SupraManG]

What an improvement! If I had this truck, I'd definitely do this upgrade! Great video.

[@HeadlightRevolution]

It's almost worth buying the truck just to install the headlights! Thanks for watching. -Chris W

[@coreybidlack4406]

For $1000? Not a chance in hell

[@johnboyd8706]

OK, one thing they don't show you in the installation video is if you already have projectors like I did, you have to remove three screws that hold components for those with reflector lenses. You also have to snip a zip tie. Super easy, but I was struggling for awhile before I realized why my big plug had nowhere to go. It takes less than 1 minute to remove. I can't wait to drive in the dark tonight!

[@HeadlightRevolution]

Thanks for the comment.

[@ronschott8724]

I'd like to see a review and/or comparison of the Morimoto to the AlphaRex Nova series headlights for the 2019 Ram 1500.

[@HeadlightRevolution]

Thanks for the input, I will pass that up the chain! Those are 2 popular headlights, so I could see that becoming a video for sure! Thanks for watching!

Amazing upgrade for my truck, I'd definitely recommend them! Pricey for sure, but well worth the money to give a newer look to your truck. You get what you pay for anyways and with these lights you get a nice warranty!

Not gonna lie almost bought some alpharex simply cuz they have sequential turn signals. Now i found out these have them im sold. I liked the look better for the moris anyways lol thanksss

[@samsantarita1680]

Watch Big Daddy’s House video before installing. No grill removal needed. I installed my Morimoto’s in 45 minutes. That includes the time to watch portions of this video a second time so I didn’t screw up anything. Super simple and amazing lights. I’m ordering A pillar light next.

[@jumpoffjoe6572]

Beautiful!! And thank you Ram for not changing the DRL's in the 2019 to be this bright. [Sarcasm] Absolutely stupid of Dodge to make them so dim. But the Grand Cherokee and the Charger have bright DRL's. No rhyme or reason for the things Dodge does.

[@HeadlightRevolution]

That is for sure. We love the bright DRLs here!

[@poprugi]

Are the light bulbs included with headlights or need to be bought separately? And what kind of exactly light bulb there? Thank you!

[@HeadlightRevolution]

The XB LED Headlights have bi-LED projectors, no need to buy any additional bulbs with these headlights! They use an LED chip inside of the projector as the light source.

[@123antknee]

I bought these a couple of years ago. Sets the truck apart from others, but a bit expensive.

[@mikemiller9119]

Do you have to readjust the headlight once installed?

[@mattgrenas5226]

Sorry if I'm preaching to the choir, but some advice anybody interested Always check it, even if just going to an aftermarket bulb. What I usually do is park where my back tires are in the gutter at the end of my drive way; or find some other place to have a repeatable position. Maybe put a 2x4 down and back up until you hit it, then measure from some set point to the 2x4 so you can get back in the same place. The idea here is have a set spot you can feel in the truck without having to get out and inch around 10 times. Then close your garage door (or face a wall with the truck) and put some masking tape right at the top of the cutoff line. I usually do three spots: left, right and center. Then, after install, just adjust back up to that line. This obviously assumes that your lights were adjusted well from the get-go; if they weren't, or especially if your truck is leveled, lifted or lowered, then do a full aiming procedure. I prefer to do the marking and adjusting at night, and the install during day light for obvious reasons. Obviously, if you're not driving the truck for the next day, just leave it parked in the same spot and skip the whole "repeatable distance" procedure above. If doing it from scratch, find a flat surface with some space. If your driveway Isn't long enough, find an empty parking at a commercial space or something. Nose up to the wall, with lowbeams on, about 5ft from the wall. Mark the center of the "hot spot" with two lines each side, in a cross pattern; again, I use masking tape. Make a second mark 4" below center. Back up straight so that you are 25' from the wall. Now aim that hot spot at the 4" low mark, and centered on the vertical mark. Some prefer to put the right (passenger) side light at 2", and some manufacturers recommend aiming the lights slightly right of center. The idea behind both of these practices is to not blind oncoming traffic to your left.

[@Nerves848676]

I have the LED HO in the old style that you guys just put some yellow bulb. And i bet the shine brighter the those morimoto. Even semi truck always flashing the lights thinking i have high beems on. I paid less the $100 for a pair. The only thing about morimoto is the design is SiCK. but safe the money and get LED BULBS N will shine just as bright if not brighter. Just my .2cents

[@HeadlightRevolution]

Bragging about being flashed is not something to brag about at all, that means your lights are producing so much glare that it's even bothering semi drivers that are sitting up that high. 🤦‍♂️ They aren't bright, they're just shooting light everywhere, which is not good.

[@lancecourtney1781]

[@entecelectric5645]

Same issue with mine. 2016 ram with quad lights. And the 16-19 xb model that I bought doesn’t work quite right: Engine on: DRL strips Shift into Drive (daytime): DRL strips and all 4 projectors are on highbeam. Then drivers side quits working. Otherwise, works great: low beam works, high beam works at night. Parking lights work. But seems to me the harness is telling these things to turn on DRL as soon as key is on instead of when shifting into drive. All the projectors should be off all day?! Should I just call them direct to discuss?

[@Rhero666]

I have a 2019 1500 classic w/ quad halogen no drl, do the drls on these only work with parking lights then????

I have a 2011 Ram 2500 that originally came the single bulb reflector assembly lights. I replaced the assemblies with a dual projector assembly that is similar to the Morimoto; however, the bulls of my aftermarket assemblies were weak and the low beam projectors go out when the high beams are turned on. Does the Morimoto low beans stay on when the high beams are activated?

Yes the Morimoto low beam stays on with the high beam when activated. It's a very solid headlight option.

Thanks for your question! None of the headlights from Morimoto have had issues with plastic melting. However, these Ram headlights did have an issue with the paint bubbling. This is due to the sun reflecting off the of the projector lens and shining right on the paint. This is also an extremely common issue with the OEM headlights as well.
