I’m hoping to get these someday for my 17 limited! I have always hated the headlights that came with my truck, but It’s taking a while for me to get the funds to pay for the quality these have!
I heard EFI 10amp is always ON and it turns back ON after 4 hours and it will not turn OFF until you start the truck again. Please advise. Thanks! I was going to tap the fuse on INJ 10amp but my raptor lights is already there.
this is the upgrade I need. When I saw the clear coating on the OEM on my '16 Tacoma starting to show signs of peeling, first thing comes to mind is 'forget about sanding and re-clear coating, just go for the upgrade'...
That is correct, if you have OEM LED DRLs, you will NOT need to install the DRL fuse tap! www.headlightrevolution.com/toyota-tacoma-xb-led-heads-B-LF530_2?quantity=1
@@HeadlightRevolution Odd question. I used the fuse that Morimoto recommended to plug into put that makes the DRLs turn on randomly about 3-4 hours after i turn the car off. what other fuse can i use?
I also have my raptor light add a fuse next to EFI 3 so it might not fit but I noticed there's also EFI 1 which also a 10amp. Any idea if that would work?
Installed on my 23 tacoma with OEM led lights and used the morimoto recommended harness adapter. They are blowing fuses and headlights will not turn on, but startup sequence is working. Can you help?
@@ShepherdFindley-vy2xl I did. I had to purchase these harness adapters. They must all be made in the same place, because despite from ordering from different companies, they were all wired wrong. Two wires ended up being transposed. When I took them apart and re-wired them it completely fixed the issue and the lights worked great. Figuring it all out was a huge headache and Morimoto was no help at all.
Additionally, these lights weren't great so I ended up selling them and putting the OEM Tacoma sequential LEDs back in. They had a much better light spread, even after aligning the Morimotos.
The DRL fuse tap will only trigger the headlight DRLs to come on when the ignition is turned on, they will always shut off once you remove the key/turn the vehicle off!
Yes the SR5 does have the same fuse to use the fuse tap from the instruction Also to answer your original question, since HR glanced over it, yes the DRLs turn on after about 4 hours. The truck runs a test that pulls power through that fuse and triggers the DRLs to come on. Pretty annoying and not mentioned anywhere other than forums. Not really great transparency from morimoto or their dealers there...
The side marker in the video is white and showing yellow LED bulb but the product on your website shows yellow side marker. Does the smoke version of the side marker come pre-installed or do we have to do it ourselves in opening up the light and adding it?
They are designed to take on and evaporate a little condensation, they have breathable vents on the back of the housings! The beam will be so much better than OEM thanks to those 3 LED projectors inside, each designed to function perfectly with the LED lights behind them! Let us know if you have any other question, we are here to help!
When messing with the grill... do you need to worry about messing up the Toyota Safety Sense radar sensors? (e.g. Do they need to be recalibrated or anything?)
Yes they will. In the product listing just add the added adaptor to the cart as well. Here is the link to the product. www.headlightrevolution.com/toyota-tacoma-xb-led-heads-B-LF530_2?quantity=1
I have a 3rd Gen Tacoma. I installed the new xb lights and the add a fuse harness, but the start up feature isn't working. Also I disconnected the blinker wire for the sequential feature.
I just installed these headlights and am having the same problem with the startup sequence not working. Did you figure out what the problem was with yours?
Got a little over-ambitious thinking this was going to be a quick install on a TRD Pro. It's not. Fender trim and skid plate need removed. Gonna have to do this another day.
@@HeadlightRevolution It worked out. Fender trim on the TRD models adds a little more complexity and opportunity to break clips. As far as the skid plate goes - I didn't need to remove the bumper at all. Just pull the bumper cover back. Out of the box headlight angle was abysmal, but once I adjusted them they were great.
Does the DRL Harness come with the lights? I didn't notice one (or two?) in the box, but I have yet to install my lights. I hope it was included. Also, you connected one end in the fuse box, but didn't show where on the H/L does the other end connect. Can you please comment? Thanks!
This is exactly how headlight reviews should be, you can’t even get some of these companies to post their own headlights up like this. You wouldn’t happen to be able to do an alpha Rex Tacoma review?
@gregbabiak9404 so you do have to connect the fuse harness regardless if you have factory led drl shut off on the column? 2018 TRD Off-Road.... I'm hearing 2 different versions.
If you have to ask you don’t understand. Sure, when I was in college eBay style junk was acceptable but now I’d rather spend the money on truly premium products.

@5:55 if you have factory LED DRL, I don't think this step is necessary, but consult instruction PDF to be sure.
You’re correct but if you have the factory LED DRL you’ll have to have an addition adapter harness.. I’m currently waiting on my harness in the mail.
🤙
Do these lights need beam adjustment after the install is complete?
You guys should do some videos on LED reverse bulb testing with some of the ones found on Amazon and the higher end ones
We will see what we can do for you down the road, we will keep you posted!
@@HeadlightRevolution where can I get the DRL harness? I am not seeing it on your website.
Did I wire them wrong or do these not have a function to completely turn off the drl?
These DRL are always on with the ignition of the truck.

Amen!
Stupid question but just to clarify we only need that fuse tap if our truck didn't have DRLs other wise it should be plug and play?
That is correct, if you have OEM LED DRLs, you will NOT need to install the DRL fuse tap!

@@HeadlightRevolution Odd question. I used the fuse that Morimoto recommended to plug into put that makes the DRLs turn on randomly about 3-4 hours after i turn the car off. what other fuse can i use?
So where did the new wires plug into the headlight?
Does anyone know if these turn randomly on and off like the alpha rex one?
May have missed this if mentioned. If my Tacoma has auto headlights with drl tied to my stock halogen amber turn signal, do I need the fuse adapter?
You will still need to use the included fuse tap.
Can you do a video or comment on how to do a final calibration on the beam direction or does Morimoto provide that in their instructions?
We have a video on that already!

@@HeadlightRevolution it doesn't show the adjustment for Tacomas
What should you do if you already have raptor lights running to that fuse?
You can use any fuse that has power when the ignition is on.
I also have my raptor light add a fuse next to EFI 3 so it might not fit but I noticed there's also EFI 1 which also a 10amp. Any idea if that would work?

We can go into detail with you for sure. Shoot us an email at Sales@headlightrevolution.com and we can assist you.
I heard when plugging into the fuse the day time running lights will cut on with the truck off. Is this true??
You need to ask that question better!

You will have to open the light and install it yourself.
Obviously the DLR is brighter than OEM but we would like to see side by side comparison on the light output compared to factory led headlight.
at 0:30 they show a comparison.
Will it have condensation? Is the beam scattered or uneven compared to oem?
They are designed to take on and evaporate a little condensation, they have breathable vents on the back of the housings!

@@HeadlightRevolution the other guys before him has great questions but you skipped them and didnt answer. 🤦♂️
Hey i have HID on my 2016 tacoma . If i buy them . Can i still use my HID ?
These are full LED units, it would replace the entire headlight.
When messing with the grill... do you need to worry about messing up the Toyota Safety Sense radar sensors? (e.g. Do they need to be recalibrated or anything?)
No
Nope!
Does this plug and play w/ the oem led (technology package)
Yes they will. In the product listing just add the added adaptor to the cart as well. Here is the link to the product. www.headlightrevolution.com/toyota-tacoma-xb-led-heads-B-LF530_2?quantity=1
I have a 3rd Gen Tacoma. I installed the new xb lights and the add a fuse harness, but the start up feature isn't working. Also I disconnected the blinker wire for the sequential feature.
Hey having the same situation with the start up sequence. Did you get yours to work?
@@Trisglen no I can't figure this out. I ran the wire in the cab to the fuse panel to ignition 1 then 2. Nothing happens
@@Trisglen also I'm trying to adjust the beams is clockwise up?
I just installed these headlights and am having the same problem with the startup sequence not working. Did you figure out what the problem was with yours?
What about if my truck has the fender flares? Take them off too?
Should be able to unbolt them and slide the bumper off, removing them would be best though!
@@HeadlightRevolution that was two months ago lol I figured it out kinda broke one flare but that’s why they make spare parts.
My Tacoma doesn't have the DRL button inside. Does your kit come with one?
No button, this uses a fuse tap to supply power to the DRL!
Is it true, the gen 2 you can set the turn signals to sequential or regular? If so, how is that done? Thanks hr
You can do it on gen 1 too. It’s a wire you either connect or disconnect in the back
Do these headlights retain the Toyota factory automatic high beam function?
They do!
Got a little over-ambitious thinking this was going to be a quick install on a TRD Pro. It's not. Fender trim and skid plate need removed. Gonna have to do this another day.
Awh man 😢

Quick question I drive a 2019 SR5 model those lights fits on this models? Or just for TRD models ? Thank you
They will fit
Will the DRL switch from white to amber
It will not switch between the two colors, but it does have an amber turn signal.
do you guys have headlights for an fj cruiser ?
Is there a way you can run the amber DRL instead of the LED DRL?
Unfortunately not. I asked morimoto's Instagram page and they said no. Would be more bad ass if they were amber though
Will these work on a SR model? Thanks
They should!
Will these work on a 2022 SR5?
They should, but we have not tested on a 2022 yet!
Whats is the warranty on these? Thanks
5 years!
Need Amber DRL
Here you go, they are available on our website.

How can you get it to amber DRL?
Here is the link for the amber option.

I just checked the box , the harness is in there.
I’ll do same with mine, thanks for your help ..
Can you change the bulbs on these? Or do you have to buy brand new housings when they burn out?
These are non-serviceable. In the event of any sort of internal component failure the 5 year warranty would cover this!
This is exactly how headlight reviews should be, you can’t even get some of these companies to post their own headlights up like this.

Thanks for the feed back. We can see if we can get a truck in to test those.
Morimoto have one the brightest drl strip much more than alpharex.
Right!
Wicked awesome
Yeah it is! Thanks for commenting, and for the support! Have a great day!

Do u still need to run the fuse if u already have DRL on the truck?

@@HeadlightRevolution after istalled do u need to aim it if so where is the adjustment on the headlight
@@HeadlightRevolution Morimoto has confirmed that all trucks need to run the fuse tap harness due to excess amperage draw.

1300 for the headlights. That’s a a bit steep all things considered.
Not at all! The best comes at a price!
👍
I like the alpha start up better imo
Different stroke for different folks!
Will it fit a 2018 trd sport manual shift and have all the functions?
Yes, they will!
