The all-new XB Evo headlights from Morimoto truly embody their commitment to excellence. These headlights offer a blend of cutting-edge technology, meticulous design, and high-quality construction, catering to enthusiasts who demand top performance and style, even at a premium price.
One standout feature is the patent-pending heating system, which prevents frost buildup on the lens in wintry conditions by warming its surface. Additionally, the signal swap system allows for personalized control over the daytime running lights and turn signals via a convenient plug-and-play key located on the back of each headlight. Users can choose to run the daytime lights in either white or amber, with full intensity maintained in both settings. The headlights also feature an impressive multi-stage illumination sequence that activates upon starting your 4Runner, adding a touch of sophistication to your vehicle’s appearance.
Though the XB Evo headlights come with a higher price tag, they are built to exceptional standards and are expected to last the lifetime of your 4Runner. Morimoto backs them with a comprehensive five-year warranty, underscoring their confidence in the product’s durability and performance.
Features & Benefits
The all-new XB Evo headlights by Morimoto represent more than just a simple design refresh; they embody Morimoto’s dedication to advanced technology, high performance, and meticulous quality. Here's an in-depth look at what makes the XB Evo headlights stand out:
Evolutionary Design
The XB Evo headlights go beyond cosmetic updates. They showcase Morimoto’s commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology and superior craftsmanship from start to finish. Designed for enthusiasts who value both aesthetics and functionality, these headlights offer a premium experience.
Maximum Performance
-
Advanced Optics: The XB Evo features dual Bi-LED projectors with Nichia’s latest automotive LEDs, providing exceptional brightness and a wide, well-distributed light output that exceeds IIHS standards. In high beam mode, dedicated D-Optics enhance intensity and coverage.
-
On-Road Capability: DOT compliant with FVMSS108 regulations for road use in the USA, these headlights operate at about 50% of their full intensity to comply with legal limits. Designed by Morimoto's lead optical engineer, Yoshi Ishida, they provide excellent visibility, comfort, and safety. Vertical aim adjustment within +/- 6 degrees accommodates various vehicle setups, including lifted 4Runners.
-
Off-Road Intensity: Out of the box, the XB Evo headlights are limited in intensity for compliance reasons. For off-road use, an optional Supercharged LED driver increases light output by 30-50%, offering the brightest performance available. Note that this upgrade will make the headlights non-compliant for road use.
Frost-Free System
- Innovative Heating: The patent-pending frost-free system keeps the lens surface warm to prevent frost buildup in cold, wet, or snowy conditions. When temperatures drop below 5°C, the system activates upon command by flashing the high beams four times. The headlights confirm activation with two additional flashes and maintain optimal temperatures to ensure clear visibility.
DRL Optics
- Enhanced Visibility: The XB Evo’s daytime running lights and turn signals utilize glass-like TIR optics with distinctive surface textures for maximum intensity and a unique appearance. This design outshines many other aftermarket options and provides a distinctive topographic pattern.
Customization and Convenience
-
Signal Swap System: Users can personalize their setup with a plug-and-play key on the back of each headlight. The daytime running lights can be set to white or amber, and turn signals can be configured to operate sequentially or with a traditional on-off mode featuring an elegant fade-off effect.
-
Start-Up Sequence: Each time the 4Runner starts, the headlights illuminate in a multi-stage sequence before turning off. While this feature doesn’t impact performance, it adds a visually appealing touch to the vehicle.
OE Fit and Installation
- Seamless Integration: Designed for a perfect fit, the XB Evo headlights match OE specifications, allowing for an easy installation. They mount onto the original points, align with the sheet metal, and connect to the factory wiring without causing dash errors or interference.
Durability and Quality
-
Robust Construction: Built and tested in the USA, the XB Evo headlights feature Nichia LEDs and OE-grade wiring and connections. They are coated with a hard layer that exceeds the industry standard for UV resistance, ensuring longevity and resistance to cracking, fading, and yellowing.
-
Warranty: Despite their premium price, the XB Evo headlights are crafted to an OEM+ standard and are backed by an industry-leading five-year warranty, reflecting Morimoto’s confidence in their durability and performance.
Overall, the XB Evo headlights represent a high-end upgrade for the Toyota 4Runner, blending advanced technology with exceptional build quality and customizable features for a superior driving experience.
