I installed the D5S 45W version on my stock 16 Sierra SLE. Firstly, the color is not matching the LED lights and looks ugly. Secondly, I noticed sometimes when Engine started bulbs are blinking and stop working. I have to off and turn it on again few times till it works fine. Did anyone face this issue? Do I need to fix a converter or reprogram the computer?
35w D5S's are doing it too. I contacted Morimoto and discovered that there is a "Note" under "Compatibility" that states that they won't work properly in automatic mode. We must turn the lights on manually. For that reason I am returning mine for a full refund.
@@Mr.Beastforpresident I ended up keeping them and they have worked flawlessly since. I did have to replace one under warranty during that time and I have no issues since
Hello, I have a Jeep Compass and it has Philips Xenon headlight the same as the Silverado. I would like to trade it for a Super Led D5S, do you think it might present some problem using Super Led in the car that comes with factory xenon?
Bro...i have the same in my Scross 1.6...but sadly there is no upgrade in the D5S 25W from Philips. There are various options available in Auxbeam brand,but these stock Philips D5S goes along with which 'H' pattern...its very difficult to find out. If u find any solution...plz do inform Me too...✌
Do you have factory HIDs? If you do, then these will totally work, if not, you will need something else! Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns!
@RandomVids519 because it may be introducing extra load on the wire or relays leading up to the ballast. If we could just run a small wire and install a ballast before the lamp to avoid extra load, buildings would not need multiple lighting circuits. But as it is we can only install up to 20 amps on a 12-wire circuit. I'm guessing cars are a similar idea
Hi guys, should it not say 50% brighter HID D5S bulbs? If LUX at 20 feet is 550 (factory HID) and 820 (Morimoto HID), then I don't see how you can say Morimoto is 150% brighter. Morimoto LUX would have to be at 1375 for the bulbs to be 150% brighter than stock D5S. You won't get 150% more light with an extra 10W of power (the difference between factory 25W D5S and Morimoto 35W D5S). Please explain.
Can I replace them with LED light bulbs on my truck 2018 Silverado I don’t like HIDS LEDS are much brighter but I can really replace them with LED so my truck will be fully LED because I thought these trucks were fully led not hids it has led fog lights which is weird because it should be fully led im going to replace them anyway with LEDs
Hey Lester! In most scenarios, HID is actually a lot brighter than LED. However, LEDs have a lot of great benefits like no warm up time, reliability, installation, and less components. We unfortunately don't have a D5S LED bulb. Let us know if you have any other questions at all!
The article that I read about the 2016 Silverado said the new trucks would have led headlights and it did not mention anything that had hids the article even stated that were fully led not hid I read this article in July 2015 when the Silverados had its original design and incandescent headlights I miss it’s original design why did it get redesign the truck was fine the way it was I feel like they should have kept its original design only replace the headlights with leds well I guess GM want to redesign the front grill and keep the 2014 body style l like the hexagonal chrome grill better in my opinion I don’t know about your opinion when I first saw the first 2016 Silverado in the road I said to my self what happened to the 2015 Silverado design I said what’s this is not the Silverado I’m used to seeing every day because I was already used to seeing 2014-2015 Silverados I could not believe that Silverado had gotten redesigned and I said happened to original design i soon I found out it more 2016s began to appear more commonly in 2016 they were rare at first but as 2016 move on a lot people had already upgraded to the 2016 and etc and etc I don’t mention 2017-2018 because they’re the same as 2016 that’s why put etc and etc
On the Website Morimoto states that these bulbs have a lifespan of 2500 hours, is that correct or a typo? That would be 104 or so days not straight obviously but still for $350!
Thanks for watching! The life span on these these bulbs is 2500 hours of running light. Keep in mind that these bulbs do come with a two year warranty.
Headlight Revolution Do they have these exact hid bulbs with ballest already built in it for a 2015 Chevy Silverado?? Great video. I could really use these. Thanks so much.
Question. Would you ever do a video on a 2016 to 2018 LTZ with full LED headlights tutorial. Is there a LED plug and play upgrade for "factory" LEDs in the LTZ, High Country level Silverados or GMC Denali. Not talking about replacing the whole headlamp assembly.
Headlight Revolution so why wouldnt morimoto make them with the pwm so that more people would buy them, pretty dumb I think! If Im paying $350 for HID bulbs they better have that feature included!

Just purchased these for a 2018 Silverado. Dumb question: anybody know how to access the headlight bulb? I’ve got no rubber dust cover behind the bulb housing, as shown in this video - only a hard plastic shroud fully containing the entire head light assembly. Remove entire headlight assembly perhaps?
On your website I noticed the company carries (35W) D5S: Morimoto HID Bulbs & (45W) D5S: Morimoto XB HID Bulbs I had ordered the 5500k (35W) for my Silverado 2018 1500 wondering if there is a big difference between this two?
I'm afraid not my man, the 2500HD takes a H11 low beam, and a 9005 High beam. Give us a call at 218-755-5505 and we can get you the best of the best! :)
My 2016 Sierra has the factory 25w Philips bulbs; but no plastic tabs - just a hard plastic shrowd someone else was describing below - I'm pretty sure they're still xenon hid bulbs; and not LEDs. How do I get these suckers out? lol
Did yours go out? These are great bulbs, you must have gotten a defective set! We can get you replacements on the way! Shoot us an email, this won't be a problem at all, we'd love to help you out. Email: Returns@Headlightrevolution.com Call: 218-755-5505
Would the automatic light setting effect the life in the bulb or can I use it just like the factory ones. And lastly would I get a error light on my dash when installed. I really appreciate you for answering my questions and want to thank you for your time on responding.

The D3S is compatible with silverado 2017?
Sick upgrade. Do you know hot to upgrade the day running light (strip) so its bright even when you turn the knob so it stays ok when dark?
Thanks for this video!

I am totally unsatisfied with this bulbs. Check my video to see how it is not working well on 16 Sierra SLE

Do you have any suggestions why the left headlight wont work no fuse is blown and no signal but have led running light no highbeam on left side also
Have you changed anything recently, such as the bulbs?
Anyone know the part number for the light buld holder clip ? For the d5s light
Did you ever find it I just bent mine
Figured it out the ground in front of radiator mount thanks for the help
Glad to hear you got it figured out!
Do you need to readjust the headlight beams after installing?

Friend whose temperature is the bulb of the 2016 silverado and which bulb mark is it?
I have a 2017 gmc sierra 1500, would that fit in my truck headlight replacement, thanks

Is the extra wattage a concern for the wire or any relevant relays to the lights?
Why they have their own balast

Hey Martin, You're correct. It looks like we made a mistake there, Thank you for catching that!
Yeah thanks Martin, thanks to you we are NOT going to change the title 😎💪🏻🤣🤣
Is an LED conversion the best lighting option at this point in time? Rather than this D5S upgrade. Just seems the leds nowadays are brighter
Not for HIDs, we still recommend using HIDs with HID projectors.
Are there d5s led bulbs and if so, can we install them just as easy as these?
Unfortunately there are not. :( If you have HID bulbs already, we recommend upgrading to another HID bulb.
Darn!!! I was really hoping for some LED lights. I really appreciate you responding back!
@@thisguy23 there are led conversion of D5S, but no one tried guess. Check it on ali express thanks.
Why on earth would you want to downgrade from OEM HID to aftermarket LED? Never makes any sense when people want to downgrade.
Question: does the battery need to be disconnected before this install or is it not necessary?
You don't have to disconnect the battery.

Headlight Revolution hey dude can really replace them with LED light bulbs
Does that applicable on gmc sierra 2016?
It is!
They came out with a 45w Version. Will you lose automatic function with these bulbs?
Jose Rodrigues where can i find a 45 watt version? Im looking to upgrade but 350$ for a 40% increase seems a little steep.
tyler driskill totally not worth the cost unless you’re replacing burnt bulbs anyways

There isn’t really an upgrade for the factory LED headlights that doesn’t involve replacing the whole assembly.

@@HeadlightRevolution got it
Why does the auto light feature in your truck not work with these?
the auto light system uses a PWM (pulse width modulation) signal to turn on the lights and will not ignite the aftermarket bulbs properly.
Headlight Revolution so why wouldnt morimoto make them with the pwm so that more people would buy them, pretty dumb I think! If Im paying $350 for HID bulbs they better have that feature included!
Yes, because due to the headlights always being on shortens the lifespan. The lights stay on even when it’s very bright outside.

Was that a very close match with the led fog lights?
Headlight Revolution thank you I wasn’t sure if the 5500 or the 6500 would match better!
It will be very close, I personally would go with 5500!
Do you all carry an upgrade for the fog light?
We do! If you take a look on our website you can see all the options we have available for your vehicle.
Just purchased these for a 2018 Silverado.

Certain trims have LED instead of HID. You cannot modify those.

Raul Montemayor 45w would be brighter
I thought that the bulbs DO have ballasts from them
Will this work on a 2016 2500HD??
I'm afraid not my man, the 2500HD takes a H11 low beam, and a 9005 High beam. Give us a call at 218-755-5505 and we can get you the best of the best! :)
Headlight Revolution my 2016 actually has the d5s bulbs it’s a Denali HD though
Were there two options for factory headlight bulbs? I thought they all came with factory LEDs
I think only the High Country models have LED headlights
Is there any difference in the warmup / power on time, from a cold bulb?
We're in Minnesota so you could base the warm-up time in a cooler climate. In a warmer one, it may be faster.
I thought these trucks had led headlights
Pretty sure you can get them either way. Option for HID bulbs, or option for LED housings.
Certain models have the leds.
LT and other have hid
2016 silverados and newer do, but 2015 and older have HIDs and they suck.
@@nrfa6229 my 2017 has HID headlights and LED fog lights
My 2016 Sierra has the factory 25w Philips bulbs; but no plastic tabs - just a hard plastic shrowd someone else was describing below - I'm pretty sure they're still xenon hid bulbs; and not LEDs. How do I get these suckers out? lol
David Freeman hey I just got a 2018 GMC Sierra and have the same set up did you manage to get the bulbs out
for anyone else that needs this, turn the bulb and ballast counterclockwise on a Sierra. 2016 Sierra's don't have the tabs.
How the hell they got hid headlights but led fogs thats dumb hopefully they come out with a converter to led
HID is better in a projector
@@Strokin383 They are terrible I hate them.
@@johnjohnson4923 The factory do suck yes. But HID is superior in a projector. With quality components and bulbs.
Thanks
You're welcome! Glad you found the video helpful!
At $320 before taxes! no thank you 😂
Gotta pay to play - as they say, buy once, cry once!
150% brighter than factory HID??...Are you trying to kill oncoming traffic?...People please stop modifying your headlights.
They wont blind anyone if you have them aimed properly. We have a few video's that teach you how to aim your headlights so not to blind other drivers.
Do not buy these. They will not work longer than a month
