I bought Morimoto headlights for my 2016 ram 1500. The sequential lights work when the truck engine is off, but when I turn the engine on, the passenger side sequential light does not work. only the driver side. Any tips or ideas? and I made sure they were both disconnected to get the sequential lights to work, but I’m still having trouble

What is that blue line effect that happens on projector retrofits?
@RetrofitSource
@RetrofitSource Ай бұрын
The lens and the sharp edge of the cutoff shield cause light to bend and disperse, splitting into its constituent colors, similar to how a prism works. This phenomenon, known as chromatic aberration, occurs because different wavelengths (colors) of light bend by different amounts. Blue light bends more than red light, causing the blue hue to be visible at the top edge of the cutoff. While the blue line is primarily an optical artifact, it is often considered aesthetically pleasing and a sign of high-quality projector headlights.

I'm going to make a set using my old Volkswagen halogen headlights. I'll use a hole saw to get the perfect size hole for my new, cheap, LED projector. I'm just running LEDs in my halogen projector at the moment but the beam isn't perfect. You miss the peripheral views. I've got a light-bar on my roof basket to counter this issue on bendy back roads. It sucks having to turn it off every time oncoming traffic appears.

I have a 2014 Kia optima that has a low beam halogen projector as well as a high beam halogen reflector housing. What would I do in this situation to get the most light? Would I just do a single retrofit with an upgraded projector since the OEM Kia ones suck. Or do you go with bi xenon? If I go with bi xenon then what happens with the high beam halogen reflector that’s already installed on the car ?
@RetrofitSource
@RetrofitSource 2 ай бұрын
You could easily do a projector swap, keep the OEM high beam, and then use a splitter so you have double high beams.

Yes and no. In theory, you can find another projector that uses an H11 bulb type and use that... but performance is going to be lackluster. Performance projectors are made for D1S/D2S/D3S/D4S and H1 primarily.

U are completely wrong. It may work in the projector, but it will not be able to create a hotspot at all. And it will be a lot less bright than ur original halogen bulbs.
