TAS2020 Debut: 78Works LED headlights and taillights

OptionZero · 05-18-2021, 01:40 PM

i hate that one stray bulb that is on each outter corner. They should made that entire bottom section an LED strip that included the reverse light

Might take custom work to fix that

Cheaper than the JDM tails. They look more "period correct" as well.

I think the JDM tails still look far better. And I'm with OptionZero. That stupid corner lens/bulb just looks awkward... like it was an afterthought.

OptionZero · 05-18-2021, 04:55 PM

I suppose the cheapest solution is just not to plug that in, but until they’re out no way to tell how hard it will be to mess with these

I’ll wait till they’re out and see how they go

abm89 · 05-18-2021, 05:03 PM

It's probably so they can say the lights are "DOT Compliant" IT is awkward, though.

Ventruck · 05-18-2021, 08:16 PM

Has anyone ordered from here before?

I'm thinking about it. Doesn't 100% appeal to me like the headlights, but my mind was always on having the set complete.

abm89 · 05-18-2021, 09:56 PM

Yea, I ordered some high end LED bulbs for my other car from them. They’re legit.

When I had my warranty claim in my Morimoto headlights, I was directed to Morimoto directly by the vendor I bought them from. Morimoto then used The Retrofit Source to handle my warranty exchange. I’m on the fence in these, and my tail lights are doing just fine, but I’d probably use TRS next time.

I like these, but I think I'm going to wait until the first run is done to buy some. Let someone else work out the kinks.

EZT · 05-19-2021, 02:32 PM

Definitely going to add those to mine. I love the headlights and it’s nice to finally see some aftermarket 370Z support.

Expecting to have the same issue with this over the next several months.

Hi Taco.
How are the headlights doing after several months?
Any wrinkles issue?

Thanks

So far they are holding up well. However I do see a little wrinkling under the projector lenses again. I haven’t had any issues with the LED’s on this second set and the sequential turn signal is working better than my original set. But I think the wrinkling is going to happen to all.

Does the DRL color temp of the Mirimotos match with the OEM bumper DRLs?

I’m not sure. I have the DRL always on mod and put a piece of tint on them to not blind folks at night.
