TAS2020 Debut: 78Works LED headlights and taillights

Zetine · 06-16-2020, 12:48 PM

So I just got off the phone with Adrian at TORQEN, they should be finished for production in a couple weeks, then delivered the week after. So early half of July is hopefully when people should start getting tracking numbers.

Thought I'd put this here in-case anyone else has ordered from there

Just got my lights yesterday. I'm so excited. Unfortunately, I can't figure out where to plug in my drl harness. I plugged it in and the drls just stay on, no turning off. Also, my fuse box is not the same as the one pictured in the morimoto pdf instructions on their website. It does just plug into a 10a slot, right? Thanks for any help.

So I just installed mine today. Yes, it is a 10a fuse. It is the second one from the top left. They should have made the harness wiring go vertical instead of horizontal when you plug it in after pulling the original fuse. It was kind of a pain in the arse to close that box! Do you have a pic of your fusebox? That is weird it is different.

It seems like my lights are high by the default setting. Did any of you guys who installed yours have similar experiences? Anyone else lower the beams?

Mine were high too.

Actually another thing I noticed is the blinker seems to project a bit high. I can't tell if it's because of the vertical layout or that's also angled.

Yeah, my car is pretty low and I can see the cutoff on the highway signs lol.
I briefly thought about lowering the beam but meh, didn't bother to. I drive often on backroads with one lane per direction and nobody has flashed me yet.

Fellas, I got up pretty early this morning, knocked out this install, everything went pretty smoothly, definitely money well spent, these headlights were worth the wait, i've already received several compliments (even from women who are NOT into cars).

Let me get my Z washed, then I'll post up some pics.

My confusion is which fuse box do you have to plug the DRL into? There is a fuse box next to the battery, (that would be too easy) and one inside the car. Im guessing its the one inside the car? Please post a pic for the peeps struggling with this. Again I agree these lights were worth the wait. Thanks
