(Video Comparison) XenonDepot XtremeHID + XtremeLED lights against Stock Bulbs

[007Tacoma]

UPDATED: Old video had a copyright issue with the music. New music has been added to the new version of the video as well as jump points to see the difference more quickly...

Working on getting my production company off the ground. Just a fun side project for me to push myself - definitely not going to replace my day job. For our first in-house video, I got with [MENTION=154890]Falcon21[/MENTION] (Instagram @ginger4Runner) right before he upgraded his headlights. So, we shot a quick comparison of the lights at dusk.



...criticism is welcomed. I want to make the next video better.

If you guys are interested in our first paid project, I can show you the video we did for the Diesel Toys Tacoma D4D conversion too.

Excellent video IMO, makes me want to switch out my stock lights now.

Thanks! It really was an easy switch. We’ve had the XtremeHID low beams for almost a year with no complaints. The XtremeLEDs we got 9 months ago, and they have been trouble free as well!

 

[Mr.Allison]

Nice job on the Video.

Thanks for the video, was actually looking to finally upgrade mine.

Thinking you need to pay some people money for using that music

 

[aroslv]

What color are those in the video? They look a little on the blue side?

 

[007Tacoma]

Do I? This is where I get seriously confused.

Thinking you need to pay some people money for using that music

So... that's the really irritating thing. I'm new to this, and I do my best to play by the rules. In doing so, I searched SoundCloud for music that "Creative Commons" License. No problem. I would just give credit where credit was due, and that would be that. (I have no budget for things like Artlist.io yet.)

Long story short, I found this song and put it on my video. 1 month later after editing and all that goes with it (I have a day job and a family); I finally upload it to YouTube. I get this message about Copyright Infringement... Uh... Thought it was Creative Commons. I go look it up on SoundCloud - yep - still listed as Creative Commons.

...turns out its not. This song is copyrighted, and YouTube says that's okay - I just won't be getting any money from it. Which is also okay since I don't make any money off this video, and no one paid me to make it. Still, I would love to know what went wrong as I DEFINITELY don't want to run into this problem again...

These are 5000K. They may look blue in the video, but there is no blue in the real world projection. Part of that blue look is that the white balance on the camera is trying to adjust between the halogen bulbs and xenon bulbs.

Don’t know. I don’t work for them. I just saw an opportunity to make a video and brush up my editing skills.

...but I’m sure [MENTION=12905]XenonDepot[/MENTION] will be happy to accommodate you just as much as I’m happy to report a great experience with them. [emoji16]

Nice, was just talking about making this same video today with another 4Runner owner.

It's in the video at 1:13 and in the screen shot in my original post. 5000K

Great video and comparison. Nice work.

Installed XD HID low beams and the new LED DRL/HBs and both are amazing and easy plug & play. Still debatinf about fogs

So far I don’t think I have to do any low beam height adjustments but we will see

 

[donlapalma]

Nice comparison video. Illustrated the difference very well and helps me decide on whether I want to make the mod or not. Thanks.

We just installed XtremeLED bulbs (cool white) in our Fog Lights to replace 2 year old Amazon "Turbo16" bulbs that failed. The [MENTION=12905]XenonDepot[/MENTION] bulbs are substantially brighter! I will try to get some video/pics of that this weekend.

I would imagine XenonDepot would love to use your video. I know I would

 

[XenonDepot]

[MENTION=73851]007Tacoma[/MENTION] - Awesome video and thanks for sharing this with the forum as I'm sure it will come in handy for anyone looking to upgrade their High Beam/DRL with an LED headlight kit.
[MENTION=288634]14TrailMike[/MENTION] - If you're not in a hurry then I would recommend you subscribe to our email newsletter to see what kind of deals we may have for Black Friday!

Let us know if you have any other questions we can help with.

Problem is they can't... I need to find music that isn't protected by copyrights first. I will be working on that this weekend.
