Morimoto XB Tail lights Red vs Smoked on 2022 Ford F-150
Morimoto did right by me and sent me the red taillights to replace the smoked ones. I did not like how the smoked looked in direct sunlight and I am now very pleased with the red taillights. They look a lot better! I definitely recommend.

      @@rod_on_demand1523 overall I’m happy with them. I keep my lights on auto so they only come on at night and when I remote start it. I can see how they would come across as a little pinkish if it’s super bright outside. If you run your lights during the day I’d probably recommend getting the non smoked ones.

    @brianklosterman2664 Рік тому

    Do you have a video at night time on the red lins and with the boost bar I’m thinking about maybe putting a 20 inch led light bar on the front but I don’t want to kill the warranty that’s why also I have not put backup led lights also. Plus I don’t really want to cut thur the wires the reason why I want to get backup lights or the boost bar is because we live in the woods basically the driveway it gets pretty dark at night time. Do you have a longer video of the red lins ones during the day and at night time?

    • @jmartinez3664
      @jmartinez3664 Рік тому

      I don’t have a longer video but if you get these lights you definitely have to get the license plate backup light along with the 3rd brake light for it to be brighter than OEM.

      The red ones seemed brighter to me all around in the day and at night. I will say that you need to make sure you get the license plate thing because the reverse lighting definitely is not as bright as OEM lighting. Another reason why you should also get the third brake light which I just installed this past weekend and it looks amazing and lights up a lot!
