Quick review of the olm hikari series led headlights available from subispeed. • Hikari Series LED Head... For light on a wall and a bit more night footage.
@@rbooker1990 im so excited to install it but it Touching the the intake box by a inch now i have to wait to get a new intake. Hope this can help who’s looking to buy this that has a stock intake
Been waiting for a review for the longest of these. I need brighter lights and honestly.. the pain of opening up the OEM ones are going to kill me more than just buying these. I love the sequential. It KIND of resembles the Honda Accords headlights but I'll get that out of my system. Looks like it's a buy for me.
I do think they look pretty cool. Similar effect as the Acura jewel headlamps. It's just a downgrade in my OP to put a non fisheye lense on a headlamp on a car that comes factory with them. OLM. Is just another name for a generic Chinese made product. Overall they do look pretty cool depending on your application. The c lights and board that runs them is smooth. Biggest concern with aftermarket lights is seal leaks. This can be either with the actual seal where the lense meets the backing or where the bulbs attach. In this instance it seems like it'll be just the main seal. Also non oem lamp plastic lenses tend to oxidize at a way more rapid rate. I would suggest wrapping thrm in a clear film to promote longevity. Some night shots would be appreciated including the beam pattern say on Wall or garage door and a pic angle from the driver seat.
I have not. I know with aftermarket headlights, there is always that fear of getting the ones that has a hole and condensation happens. But you can always put extra sealant on before install just to be safe.
Did you have a problem with the lights flickering after installation or is that the resistor issue you talked about? My lights flicker with the handbrake down and lights in the off position. The c light seems fine at all times but I have no flashing with my low beams or high beams on. Thanks for any help you can provide as I'm new to electrical stuff
I am sorry to hear that you are having issues. See how the units are direct plug and play, I would think the the flickering issues are due to the units being at fault. You may want to contact subispeed about this!
These are the exact same lights you can find from VLand or Alibaba Warehouse for much much less than what Subispeed sells them for. Last I saw a set of two was priced at around $300-500
I am guessing there are adjustments for aiming these correctly once they are on the car? Nevermind I see in the other video link you mention that they are.
If the turn signal went the entire way around I would buy them instantly. It's the only reason I didn't pick them up and makes me kind of sad because I love everything else about them.
There is a separate plug and play wire coming from the headlight, as well as, an add a fuse wire that you simply plug into your fuse box that is in the engine bay. No splicing. No sketchy electrical stuff that will make you second guess what you are doing. It’s pretty easy and straight forward. You also have to unplug the drl resistor that is on the passenger side of the car under the headlight.
The drl resistor gets unplugged and is never touched again. For the drl, you going to go into the fuse box. Take out the fuse that controls the high beam. Replace it with the supplied add a fuse cable (which has two fuses in one) and plug it directly into the color matched wire that is on the headlight. They are both red.
Just bought a pair of these. We’re they hard to install and did you have to buy anything extra besides the overlays? Heard some folks turn signal isn’t working.
@@samskee415 yeah. When you go to install it, just hit me up on my Instagram @Subieroll if you have any questions. I am usually pretty good about answering right away.
Quick question if you don't mind answering. With the headlights on it is hard to tell if the DRL is distinct from the other LED low beams. When it is dark out can you see a distinct gap between the DRL and the LED headlights or do they blend to be one bright light? Second, these appear to be the same manufacture as VLAND and wanted to know what your opinion on these are vs the Hikaris. Thanks! www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HN8112P/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A212AU2GMISJ8L&psc=1
I would not necessarily say there is a gap, but you can definitely tell that there is a difference between the drl and the head light. It doesn’t just look like one blob of light. And the VLAND ones look weird to me with the 12 individual turn signal lights.
@@rbooker1990 Okay thanks! I was looking at those two and the Akkon's but probably will go with the Hikari, as it appears to be the most plug and play. Many thanks!
@@ranran2218 I got you bro! www.subispeed.com/part/15-sti/2015-2020-subaru-sti-lighting-mods-upgrades/headlights/a-70072-parent-olm-headlight-accent#.YDENsWROIlQ
Bro my DRL are the Clight and the high beams is there any way to just make it the clight and turn off the high beams? My high beams flicker too it’s annoying lol but it’s a common problem with these headlights.
The fuses go into the fuse box, via the provided add a fuse red cable. If you have an Instagram, dm me at subieroll and I will show you on there, rather than make another video.
Thanks for showcasing these! Lookin' good! 🔥
Thank you! Such a great product!

They don’t fit if you have a stock intake@SubiSpeed @It’s Subieroll
@@gatzgarcia5040 oh wow. That’s no bueno. I have a Cobb intake, so I had no idea. :(

They are super dope. Total game changer for my overall set up!

Thank you!!!!
Great video!

Wow a headlight review with no night shots 😯
Check the link in the description.

Hey quick question how did you get the sequel to work ???
Love the look of the lights. Have you had any issues after the install?
I have not. I know with aftermarket headlights, there is always that fear of getting the ones that has a hole and condensation happens. But you can always put extra sealant on before install just to be safe.
Love the white nimbus primitive dragon ball hat I have 2 black ones myself
You’ve got good taste 😁

Me watching this pretending to understand car lingo: *yes very informative*
Thank you, thank you
Looks good but I can’t give up my Steering Responsive Headlights.
These are the exact same lights you can find from VLand or Alibaba Warehouse for much much less than what Subispeed sells them for. Last I saw a set of two was priced at around $300-500
When I got mine, they were 20% courtesy of Black Friday
Subie speed web page for these headlights say “Built in conjunction with Vland to meet US specifications and requirements.” So yes, these ARE vland.
@@JayPknee my friend you literally just reiterated my comment lol. Doesn’t change the fact they can be found for much cheaper elsewhere
I am guessing there are adjustments for aiming these correctly once they are on the car? Nevermind I see in the other video link you mention that they are.
Yes, definitely helpful if you are lowered.
yessuhhhh
😉😉
Hey one other question, how bright are these? I know they are LED but are they a big improvement over the regular lights? I have a base 19 wrx
I have a premium 2016 sti and they were brighter (and whiter) than stock.
What kind of front lip do you have on the car ?
Also, great vid man ! Hope to see more !
OLM S208 style lip.

Could you please post a video of some more night time driving footage and the output on a wall to show the cutoff
I will try to get to it by Wednesday.

Hey my man, maybe a stupid question but what is the red pieces you have under you headlights? And if you bought them, from where? Love the car!
www.subispeed.com/part/a-70072-parent-olm-headlight-accent#.YPW0DeQ8IlQ
Ooooooooh... that shit looks good!!!
Very very nice 👍🏻👍🏻💯💯
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
If the turn signal went the entire way around I would buy them instantly. It's the only reason I didn't pick them up and makes me kind of sad because I love everything else about them.
Maybe they will make a Hikari V2? 👀 👀
Hey I can’t get my blinkers to work with the lights did you do anything for them to work
Message me on Instagram @subieroll
Beam pattern against a wall if you could? Seems very similar to certain Toyota stock headlights

@@rbooker1990 How did you wire it as DRL?
There is a separate plug and play wire coming from the headlight, as well as, an add a fuse wire that you simply plug into your fuse box that is in the engine bay. No splicing. No sketchy electrical stuff that will make you second guess what you are doing. It’s pretty easy and straight forward.

@@rbooker1990 So basically plug in the cable that goes into the DRL resistor into the separate plug on the headlight?

Replace it with the supplied add a fuse cable (which has two fuses in one) and plug it directly into the color matched wire that is on the headlight. They are both red.
Just bought a pair of these. We’re they hard to install and did you have to buy anything extra besides the overlays? Heard some folks turn signal isn’t working.
The wires needed for the turn signals are labeled steering. I have no idea why they did that, but it is what it is.
Lol, I haven’t opened the box yet, but that would have confused the crap outta me if you didn’t bring that up.
Btw, your subie reminds me of sage mode.
@@samskee415 yeah. When you go to install it, just hit me up on my Instagram @Subieroll if you have any questions. I am usually pretty good about answering right away.
It’s raining where I’m at so I’m gonna wait until it passes the Bay Area. Right on though

I definitely want these. What is the red stuff around your headlight?
It is a head light accent. It is made from a pretty durable plastic and applied with 3m tape. It reminded me of Gundam, so I got it.
@@rbooker1990 Gundam is amazing. Where did you buy it from. I have a silver 19 wrx that I'd like to apply it to.
@@ranran2218 I got you bro! www.subispeed.com/part/15-sti/2015-2020-subaru-sti-lighting-mods-upgrades/headlights/a-70072-parent-olm-headlight-accent#.YDENsWROIlQ

Have you unplugged the drl resistor located underneath the passenger headlight. Once that is unplugged the high beams will not come on with the drls.
@@rbooker1990 I haven’t, is it that small box on the passenger side right? Appreciate it brotha 🙏🏽
@@CasualVII yessir!
@@rbooker1990 appreciate it bro!
handsome man
No u.
I have these headlights too but I’m not able to isolate the C-lights for DRL use. Where do you put the fuses?
The fuses go into the fuse box, via the provided add a fuse red cable. If you have an Instagram, dm me at subieroll and I will show you on there, rather than make another video.
Just sent @bfljoey
What are those red pieces bro?
Head lights accents. Got them from subispeed.
You look just like Sugar Ray Leonard 😆
Yezzir
Where did you get the LED lights from
Subispeed.com
@@rbooker1990 does it fit for 2020 wrx too thats what I have
The website says 2018-2020 Wrx base and premium
I didn’t know Low Tier God was into cars
