About Morimoto
We redefine the automotive aftermarket for high intensity lighting. Taking the poorly lit back roads has never been more exciting with Morimoto powered headlamps. Morimoto lighting was established in 2008 to fill the gap in the aftermarket for truly high quality automotive lighting products. Without the budget of a major automaker to back R&D and production, individual consumers could either salvage original equipment components, or be forced to settle for inferior aftermarket parts. If you are an enthusiast, a fabricator, or a distributor and have found yourself unimpressed with the dime-a-dozen HID kits and accessories from other manufactures, then we urge you to take a closer look at what we have to offer. Search the web for an alternative name in lighting that comes more widely recommended by end-users for performance, reliability, and the way it looks and if you can find it, then buy it. Morimoto is the automotive lighting benchmark.
Product Details
X5-R LED: Joins the lineup of full size projector shrouds and are designed to mimic the style of modern BMW LED headlights. These shrouds offer excellent coverage, integrated switchback LEDs and an attractive, modern look. In Comparison: Don’t make the mistake of thinking all shrouds are created equal. Even though less expensive alternatives may be available elsewhere: Morimoto shrouds are made from the highest quality plastic and have by far the most durable metalized chrome finishes. The cheap-o’s out there are flimsy enough to deform from the heat just a 35W HID bulb, and their chrome finish easily flakes off. Switchback: With a Type II White/Amber Switchback LED circuit built into the integrated acrylic halo on the front; there’s no need for any extra LED halos or accent lighting here. Built-in, baby! DRL Ready: Their bright white LED function can also be dimmed when your low beams turn on by hooking up the dim wire to your low beam power circuit for fully compliant functionality. Hang on: The X5-R 2.0 will mount directly to all standard/generic and Morimoto projectors with a normal centric ring. Simply press fit the centric ring on the back, add some epoxy to make sure it stays put permanently, and press fit to the front of your projectors. Very easy and effective to mount up. Trimming: Please note that trimming shrouds is a common task when retrofitting. Whether required to clear part of the projector, or fit within the geometry of your headlight housing; it’s normal. Luckily, they’re made of plastic – making that easily possible. We recommend a Dremel hand tool with EZ Lock cutting wheels to make the job easy.
