OBS LED Movotor headlight install/ review/ first thoughts
มุมมอง 59Kปีที่แล้ว
Today i install the latest headlights on the market for the 88-98 gmt400 obs headlights by Movotor. and yes i did completely mess up the channel name in the intro www.amazon.com/MOVOTOR-Replacement-Anti-glare-Headlights-Compatible/dp/B0BMTM1GS3
I thought you had the left and right turn signal upside down but I looked them up on Amazon and the two turn signals can be installed three different ways. Its cool it will fit both ways if you like the look better. I am going to get a set as soon as pay day comes around. Thanks for posting!!!!
Year later you still running them?
Why is the camera man so out of breath 😂
Those look like SHIT!!!
I have tried to contact company via email or phone call phone just rings and hangs up no luck for me do far
Has anybody have the issue of light not turning on? I have an issue where it takes down all my lighting system I have a 93 chevy OBS do I need a different part number? any help will be appreciated.
I have these as well and live in Alaska! I sealed them first and then installed. Work awesome especially at night! Huge difference! Only complaint I have is the DRL's eventually fade in different spots. But the main headlights and brights still work great.
We bought a set and what we noticed is the surround led should be the daytime running lights without the low beam headlight coming on but your stuck with low beams on during the day along with the surround. If you have the park lights on you don’t get the orange light. The orange only comes on with turn signals. Technically this is not the correct operation. But they are the best looking option for an upgrade.
Great explanation in video, was wondering if the original side marker lights were deleted or used by the DRL ?
I had set of led signal lenses I didn't like em
i have friends that dont like them and some that do , some people like vanilla, some like rockyroad
How they holding up? Bought a set of headlights a few months ago and they got moisture in them and turned brown hoping these don’t have the same problem. Supposedly many aftermarket headlights have this problem
there is a review video on my channel
So what happens if one of the lights fails or goes bad a whole new headlight
so far the manufacture has been great with issues, but i have no idea on the life of these, if they are made with good leds they should last a good long time
I like the LED signals but no sure on the headlights on buy these
different taste for different people, the headlights are for sure different.
Were did u mount ur resistors for the front signal and how
i think i just zipp tied them
Did u struggle with the grill go back on the truck or any mods to the grill
You should ask the company if they would be interested in making the projector headlights without the DRLs. I personally think the headlights would look better as just projectors.
i will have to see what they say and talk to them when ihave a chance
Hi I bought the headlight assemblies. unfortunately it did not work on my 1993 obs. not sure why I plugged them in and they did not turn on. when I turn them on even my head light switch smoke came out of switch. second time I installed them again. installing one at the the time still only turn signal turned on started flickering and head light bulbs did not turn on. i tried to call the company at the phone number that 's on the business card and no response. Just want to ask what is going on or what is wrong why every body else works and no on mine. I just need answers. I do want to use them they are cool bu no luck for me. not sure how to get in contact with them. If some body know please post any information I would appreciated.
i will message the rep and show them this comment and hopfully they will reach out to you.
@@2toolsandabox I would really appreciate that I haven't had any luck with them answering to me. I just need some instructions on how installing them right the blinkers work no problem. I like them a lot specially when turning them on.
Why can't we have stock looking headlights with upgraded technology? These headlights look like a city person got a hold of them.
i hear ya, but when these companys are making these things they have to make something unique to make it worth mass numbers of them in hopes they will sell
Hey buddy I know this is an old video but where did you get those switch back turn signal lights and stuff at do you have a link by any chance I have a 88 GMC I like to put those in thank you sir
any idea why these dont fit a 1999? Looking at picking up a 50k original mile 1999 Yukon and don't know the difference between 98 and 99. to me they look the same.
my suburban is a 99, tahoe is the same will fit just fine
I needed this video 3 days ago 😤 I had a hell of a time taking off my headlight.
sorry you had difficulty, glad you found my video though
Link please

Just ordered mine last night
thats awesome, hope you enjoy yours as much as i have mine
@@2toolsandabox they are a great set of headlights love them so far
Can you get these for a 2000 Silverado 🎉
i have herd some are in the works, i may even get to do a video on them
I got into a accident recently in my 99 Tahoe & plan on upgrading the entire front end(cosmetics) . I absolutely love these lights. I was wondering if anyone has any dope grilles / bumper kits they would suggest. My Tahoe is lowered already and on Rims with Radial Tires & a Blue Silver-Ish paint. Let me know please!
there is trickd toys for some bumper stuff, and billet thrills that makes a phantom grilles
U got a grizzly bear holding the camera?
i might, hes well trained.
I never got on with my CW2 - not enough torque and just had a bunch of issues over time and I've rebuilt it many times now, CW1 was better, my prints were amazing on Afterburner with CW1 and they've been "pretty good" on CW2 but has never been the same as what I got on CW1. Installing the Galileo 2 a few days ago and I'm finally back to the print quality I had on CW1 and all my problems have been solved - my prints are now perfect again - perhaps even the best they've ever been.
Great video
thank you
Awesome update video, I did buy a set before I found your instal video, just finally got around to putting mine in…. 1, your instal video helped a lot. 2, I changed up some of their connections to deutsch connections as I wasn’t a fan of what they used. 3, the light output in this video is spot on. Very happy with my set and thankful for your videos on these lights.
the deutsch connectors are a great idea if you have that skill, glad i was able to help
How do we get in contact with the manufacturer? Also I love these headlights I just wish they didn’t have the DRL stripe on them. I love the projector style.
i know they can be contacted through amazon , i have a rep but im not sure if i can just spam them.

what about the 99 tahoe with the 5.7 will these fit?
yes they will, my suburban is a 99
Love the videos. Can you ask the manufacturer if they can make some for the 1999-2002? I would love to put something like that on my 2001 Silverado.
they seem to always be working on stuff so it could be in the pipeline just has not gotten there yet
funny that you mention it, my buddy with one of those trucks is working on them with a prototype. so its in the works, hopfully i will have a video on them when they come out
Thanks for the update video! I think you have me sold on these lights, theyre just so awesome looking while still being functional (and affordable). Your original vid was the first I came across and probably the most helpful, as I was skeptical from what Ive heard in Facebook groups. Most issues Ive heard of were fitment and moisture, luckily they are easy fixes
using them daily i do not regret buying them.
thanks for the update video pulled the trigger on these great video!!
Glad to help
update everyone th-cam.com/video/WlmKCproJj8/w-d-xo.html
That white truck was clickbait 🤦
it was a picture from the manufacture, not click bait, it was a video about the headlights. dont see how thats click bait
I have a 1999 chevy suburban k1500 and can’t get the grill to go on over the new movotor headlights. I was thinking about returning the headlights but it seems that the grill might be the problem. Popped the old headlights back in and the grill went right on. Any way to solve this issue?
I had the same issue installing them yesterday. The GMC grill seems to be way more snug than expected. I ended up having a buddy push one side while i did the other to flex it enough for the clips to clear. They sit against the grill but whatever. Just hoping they last. Definitely expected a better fitting product for the price.
i had to adjust the headlight adjusters so the headlights aimed towards the outside more slide the grille over then adjust them back.
On my 1993 GMC C1500 I do not have DRL and I have a single side marker lights that is not split amber light.I'm having trouble finding LED headlight kits to order.Can you suggest one?I like the ones in this video!
thats the great thing about these you do not need drl function, these run off the parking light circuit.
How do you get the markers to work?
the plug fitment was really tight for the main bulb plugs. as far as the DRL those turn on with the markers
I bought these and had basically the same experience, sticker fell off one of the headlights, extremely tight fitting, adjusting them kinda sucks since you have to take the grille off and the fit is super tight. Overall it's still worth it.
I just installed the headlights. I only bought the top headlights. The halo doesn’t come on. Do you know how to make the halo come on without buying the bottom turn signals?
i had no idea you could just buy the headlights and not the markers. there should be a two wire pigtail that requires power for the DRL.
I have a 97 sierra. What i dont like is when i turn my brights on the headlights go off, so with this replacement do these do the same as factory does, or will the headlights stay on when you hit your brights? Or do special wiring done with a relay kit on your vehicle besides the headlights replacement?
th-cam.com/video/WlmKCproJj8/w-d-xo.html they all stay on, this video will give you a demo
I have these same headlights! Wish I would have had em years ago! What a difference at night!!! Not false advertising at all in the ad on Amazon. Got mine for $240 earlier this year
I can’t tell if you are very humble or trying to sell these head lights but the ease of installation is very enticing. Thank you for the video and all the corrections/clarifications. You and Dallas make an enjoyable video. Subscribed!
i get no perks from the manufacture, or freebies, i did pay for my lights, and i was just wanting to share something new for an old truck.
I got mine put on my 94 gmc Sierra with a chevy front cap. And need help on how to adjust them without having to take the grill off if possible. Was a super tight fit
if you see where the adjusters are, there is a spiked wheel. that will interface with a Philips screwdriver, if i remember you can absolutely get to one of them. the second one takes a little fussing
You're getting StealthBurner confused with Clockwork 2. Galileo replaces Clockwork 2 not StealthBurner. Good chat though.
i realized that after posting, i was excited and i am horribly dyslexic, i knew what i was talking about but what came out of my mouth was something different
To much taking
ya trying to get better about that
So, why is the extruded better than BMG? BMG works well and is much cheaper. I don’t get it. Maybe some testing is in order . Thx for video.
BMG is fine, although issues with idler bearing still clearly need to be addressed (as discovered by miragec). But Planetary introduces a heap of extrusion force, so I'll be keen to check this new extruder out as I've found my LGX Lite to often slip when the going gets tough.
Larger diameter dual gears, and increased force from the planetary reduction.
@@Apophis-en9pi doesn’t necessary mean it prints better!? Maybe seeing some test samples will convince me
@@bginvestor101 Correct, it's not about a quality difference.
at the end of the day there is more than one way to skin a printer. for most people bmg is more than enough in most cases. but these are all in an attempt to cause imperfections no matter how small. 3d printing is to often compared to injection molding, and when buying something would you rather have a game controller 3d printed or injection molded? the average person compares to mass produced molded items due to the "imperfections" so we have people trying to perfect and excel 3d printing to the next level, to make it more relevant. just my take, im just a nerd and i like this stuff
Cool video, good work. 🍻
thanks for the good vibes, its not the best video but im hoping to improve it.
@@2toolsandabox There is a lot of skills to master when it comes to video creation in 2023. Best advice I have is just to celebrate the improvements that you make as you move on. You're videos are by far better then my first 5 videos, Good work.
Do the halos automatically turn on by turning on the truck with your headlights off or when you turn on your running lights. I’m trying to figure out if it’s possible to be completely dark in the front or if the halos are forced to be on when your truck is on
no they do not turn on till you have parking lights on
ordered mine already, getting tomorrow, hope its good
i have tried to order it twice now and missed the window. cause i was adding a web cam to my 2.4.....now i gotta wait a few weeks
