Bought a 2024 Sentra, SV. Actually really like it. No problems with window glare. Yeah, the headlights are halogen, but that means they cost $10 to replace instead of $500.
Owner reviews for headlights
I was in the same boat as you recently. I have a 2011 Trail and decided to go with the Morimoto headlights. So far I’m not disappointed. They are an upgrade over the stock halogen lights.
I currently have morimoto xb evos on my 5th gen and they do not disappoint in any category. Yes they're expensive, but they're pretty much the only real upgrade over factory leds in a facelift 5th gen.
Hella. Premium quality, OE supplier for many carmakers
I just traded my '23 HR-V Sport AWD after 3 years and 61k miles.
Positives:
Mine was rock solid reliable, never had a repair other than one recall.
This is subjective, but I found it to be really good looking and comfortable.
Features like adaptive cruise and lane keep assist make long drives much less tiring.
Interior materials are pretty nice for the price point.
Negatives:
It doesn't have much power and gets decent, but not amazing gas mileage.
No rear heat/AC
Another subjective one, but I personally don't much care for the feel of the CVT.
Headlights come aimed too high and due to the design (inside pair of lamps are part of low-beams), people constantly flashed me at night, thinking my high beams were on. This got a lot better after taking ten minutes with a screw driver to aim the lamps down a bit.
Highness.\u00a0\n\n\nHeadlight throw was a problem for first week. Ever since I adjusted it for longer throw, I dropped plans for additional lights- more than enough for most rides.
Headlight throw is low. I recently learnt that you can adjust the throw angle by turning the screw on the side of the headlight.
Cb350rs. Poor headlight.
I been telling people for months on here to stop spending thousands of dollars on shit that makes their car less reliable. Morimotos are well known for being an unreliable product, even if they are cool.
I've been running Morimoto XB LED headlights on my 370Z for a while now and love the look - sequential turn signals, great output, matches the TRD Pro aesthetic perfectly. The 4Runner I just bought came with Morimoto headlights already installed. They have moisture intrusion in the lenses (common issue in Texas heat/humidity). I reached out to Morimoto hoping to buy replacement lenses since the housings and LEDs are fine. "We don't sell replacement lenses or any replacement components. You'll need to purchase a complete new headlight assembly." So if a lens gets damaged, moisture gets in, road debris cracks it, or UV weathering deteriorates it over time... you're buying an entirely new $1,700-2,000 set. No repair options. No replacement parts.
