LED Headlight Upgrade. Worth it?

Overview
The 5th Gen 4runner is considered one of the best offroad vehicles in the world, known for its reliability and performance on and off the trail. That being said, it lacks majorly in technology and advancement of simple features other vehicles offer. One of the biggest issues to us is the HEADLIGHTS! Halogen bulbs in a vehicle is outdated, doesn't perform well, and doesn't offer look you would expect in a $40,000 SUV. We have tested many headlight bulbs on the market from the $15 autozone specials, to the $400 HIDs.


Is the juice worth the squeeze for the premium lights?
that's is a loaded question. For us, the autozone $15 lights might do the job for some but the quality control and longevity is worth more to us than that. Finding a solution that is in the middle is our goal and our winner is clear. Morimoto's 2 Stroke LED kits deliver on all areas we find important. Affordable. Bright. Easy to install. Reliable. The 6 Cree LEDs per bulb are grade A Philips Chips offering insane performance out of a small profile. The housing is made from machined aluminum offering a lightweight but durable solution. Cooling of LEDs is extremely important for headlights, so Morimoto uses copper boards to ensure the most efficient cooling in their headlight bulbs. Offering a optimal kelvin, these lights offer a 40% increase in brightness and are 100% plug & Play.


What else is needed?
Morimoto when designing these headlight bulbs, they wanted to create a low draw, high intensity bulb that worked in any reflector or projector without damaging or compromising the OEM part. These lights are 100% plug and play out of the box and the link below includes the anti flicker harness to prevent any flickering that may occur since the draw is significantly lower than the OEM light it is replacing. All orders ship 100% free and will include a full 3 year warranty as an authorized Morimoto Dealer.

I think there are good $20 led’s that I can replace 6 times over and be way better ahead than spending that much on those !! Lots of bad reviews on the morimoto and lots of people having issues with them. Keep your 30 day guarantee. I’ll use my best tommy boy ,

Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time. But for now, for your customer's sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me.
