installed Morimoto XB Headlight Units on my 18 SR5P today

It took me about 90 minutes, i haven't adjusted the "aim" on them yet (as it is still light out) but following the Headlight Revolution video made it super easy. The only detail that wasn't really covered was running the wiring for the DRL to the passenger side headlight. I just ran it along the same path as the existing wire loom, but didn't zip tie it in place. It's a very straightforward install that only requires a flat head screw driver or pry tool and a 10 mm socket wrench.

If I can do, you can do.

No not yet: had to get dinner ready right after getting everything buttoned up. About to take it for a drive around the block now that it's dark.

Observation about beam pattern

After dark, took it out for a drive; it seems like the right beam shoots further down the road/ higher than the left headlight. This may be to keep from "flashing" oncoming traffic, not sure, but the cut-off is definitely noticeable. Does anyone know how to adjust the headlights vertically? I'm not sure if it's just being unfamiliar with a sharp cutoff, but it is a definite cutoff. high beams follow the same pattern, with the right light being offset higher/further down the road than the left one. It's definitely brighter.

Page 7 of install manual. Mine came the same way I adjusted them up a few inches.

I thought those adjusted lights left and right

Hi,

I played around with those but it seemed to adjust the hotspots left and right. I’ll have to look at it again.

Thanks for the response.
