Lightwerkz, this looks awesome. Thanks for the discount code. Makes them cheaper than the 4.0! Nice.
Holy moly this is exciting!
Looks fantastic and oem like
Just used your kit to install these on my '18 3500 silverado, night and day difference vs using a morimoto HID kit on the stock projectors!
Thanks for the review
I wish you kept your camera settings to manual so it the exposure didn't keep jumping while we're looking at the light pattern.
Also, the 4.0 appeared brighter because the 5.0 is shining a little bit below it.
Such a great explanation and comparison. Thank you for very nice presentation. 👍👍👍
I thought I had great output from my 30$ eBay Chinesium HID projectors, but now I get to really see why Morimoto and other respected brands are a lot better! Can't wait untill I get the money to get my own later!
The d2s 5.0 is really great. It was my first retro install and except for the bulb caps which easily damages the light bulbs, they're great projectors. Much better than a lot of OEM cars on the road. Its the biggest upgrade I'd recommend getting done on a car.
i thought these came with the motoholders?
excellent video thank you very much for the comparison!!
i prefer the step and color of the 4.0
This looks like an integrated beam design/pattern of the popular RX 350 cutoff shield into the 4.0 body. Has a nice color band right out of the box and no modding needed. Much cheaper and easier to retrofit than the larger RX350 projectors too.
Been waiting on these (HLjunkie)
I’ll go with g5r. I’m tired of the exaggerated slope on the Morimoto projectors. My mini 7.0’s throw light at street signs on the right, but I only get a couple hundred feet of light on the left. I’ve adjusted them as much as I can too.
Ceasar - any chance you could check if the new coated lenses would fit in a D2S 4.0. Might be a nice little budget upgrade to the other setups without replacing the entire setup.
im trying to find out if i want the morimoto mini stage 3 4.0 or the morimoto mini 5.0 whats better for my d2s retrofit
how does the square lens 5.0 vs the round 5.0 compare? any big differences? i would perfer the square for ascetics but have not seen a 5.0 square for comparison.
If your OEM projector is the black series 2.5" will this 3" projector fit in the headlight housing? Or am I stuck with only 2.5" projectors like the 4tlr?
Great video. Can this be retrofitted onto the stock headlight module of a 2003 f150? I'd really like to improve my terrible nighttime visibility.
Any pointers on what I would need and the best way to go about it? Thanks in advance to anyone helpful.
Hope you'll still do a video showing the effect of a shield drop for us! (:
actually just saw your post on FB about it not really helping. Nevermind (:
Cadillac sts had that purple looking coating.
The G5R is around 690-740ish Lux compared to 550-570lux of the d2s 5.0. But remember the 4.0 light width is far better then the G5R so the 5.0 projector is the most useable especially if you are on low light roads alot where you want wider beams. Plus 550lux is more then enough light for any car. Also key factors are he used morimoto ballasts and Osram CBI lights. Denso ballasts will give you slightly higher lux same with using the new Osram CBA bulbs which are brighter(more lux) then the CBI lights used here. If you want the most lux increase then pair Denso ballast with the Osram CBB lights and you should be around 580-630lux total. You can take it a step further and do a shield drop mod on the d2s 5.0 to get even more lux.
do you have to buy hid kit for these projectors? confused it says it has a 9006 harness , I have 9003 will I need an adapter
Can we get the 5.0 shield and solenoid only as spare part?
Will these fit in a motorcycle headlight housing(07 cbr1000rr? What are the measurements?
Also, in addition to my other comment: I would LOVE to see these put against a tuned RX350 and compared for width and multiple-area lux readings (versus taking a lux reading only from that center hyperspot on the 5.0). I'm willing to pay more $$ for the tuned RX350 if they'll provide me the brightest, widest output that will put everything else on the road to shame.
Check out our Facebook, you can compare intensity and width.
Little confused so is this one better than the Evox - r 2.0 ? I don't know if newer means better ?!?
It has been mentioned RHD NOT AVAILABLE CURRENTLY on eBay Australia website ,may I know the details about it (when will it be available and all..?(
Can I change my 2011 TL projectors to the 5.0?
Can you guys compare width?
PLEASE put this against the G5R!! I've been waiting since June to do my retrofit with you guys since I was waiting in anticipation for this to come out. I do have to say I'm a bit disappointed, specifically regarding the blue coated lens which would give my CBI's a warmer color. I would love to see this put against the G5R to compare lux readings, and also compare bowing. The one thing I truly hate about the G5R is how the edges bow, and the lack of bright width compared to the 4.0. When I can see this put against the G5R I will be at your guys shop by Christmas to get my new headlights retrofitted!
If you dislike the bowing I would say the 5.0 would be best for you.
Hi I have a Subaru Forester 2011 model and what size fits for the low beam? 2.5 inch or 3 inch. Thank you
Any chance we can get a direct comparison to a tuned RX-350 projector?
Good luck with a response..... better off asking TRS on channel they respond to everyone
try watching how we retrofit the projector at the following link th-cam.com/channels/Vz8uts9rTbhVCUwPdw_HbQ.htmlvideos?disable_polymer=1
I bought bi-led for my car that's comes with H4 headlight and bi-led comes with 4wires. wires 2 for low beam and another 2 for high beam.
H4 wires: + low beam, + High beam and - Ground.
My question where to connect bi-led - (negative) high beam wires?
Hi! How can I connect it when I have a bi-xenon with D3S in the Audi A5 2014? Can anyone help me?
Can this work with H4 led or is it only for hid.
Finally, a better way to lock down projectors, a tool.
not a fan of the new shield. they perfected the shield and step on the FX-R 3.0 wish they would bring that back or have that shield as an option in upcoming D2S
Can we get a comparison between the 5.0 and a G5r
It's coming next. Just been a busy week.
trying to finally install these on my '18 wrx (bought on black friday lol) looking through install vids, which i only see using the 4.0, i'm noticing my 5.0 kit didn't include the steel brackets which mount to the inner headlight framing assembly. do i need them or does the 5.0 work fine without them?
You need these - www.lightwerkz.net/index.php/components/retrofit-brackets/subaru/subaru-wrx-d2s-bracket.html
OMG!!!! and i just received my d2s 4.0 and now they have 5.0 omfg well i guess thats what happens to a none crystal ball owner
don't worry the 4.0 is still good
Looking at his comparison, I preferred the high beam on the 4. Probably be much more of a flood off road :D
Stupied question: why is the 5.0 called mini D2S 5.0 if the lense is still 3 inches? I actually almost bought it thinking that since it was "mini" then it was a 2.5" lense.
Can these be put in headlights with oem projectors, like an upgrade ? I have a 09 tsx with protectors from factory, did the clear lens swap and added spacers but my cut off color looks nothing like these lol
joker90029 Almost anything is possible. Just depends on how much modification you want/are able to do. I have g5r in my 2010 Subaru. Lots of modification but well worth the output. I don’t think there is a bolt in option just full custom.
Are they available in India
D2S vs MLED 2.0? I'd love to see a comparison. I plan on buying an MLED 2.0 because of simplicity, however I'm also going to buy the universal mounting brackets, so if push comes to shove, I could easily change over to the D2S 5.0.
HID vs LED, the debate will continue for years to come. No reason to switch you to HID if you are set on the MLED, its an amazing unit.
@@LightwerkzGlobal another quick question, do you know if anyone sells 3D models of the MLED? I want to do the retrofit, however, I’d rather not spend $400 and potentially get it dirty, or even ruin it from constantly re-installing it over and over again.
@@JoeyLovesTrains Never heard of anything like that. Just tape up the lens. The projector is going to get dirty during the conversion process. Once you are ready to reseal spray it down with compressed air and simply wipe down with a microfiber.
Is it me or does the 4.0 seem to have brighter light around the step in the cut off line? I'd prefer that shield and some trimming over the new one
Mark Row Yep. File the shield down to half size on the 4.0 and it’s fantastic.
Hi there, thatnx for review, i want to know if i can fix these lens on honda pilot 2008
Plz can you tell me how and where to connect projector high beam red/black wire in H4 reflector..??? Plz help bro 😕
You need a wiring harness - www.lightwerkz.net/index.php/components/wire-harnesses/bi-xenon/morimoto-h4-motocontrol-bi-xenon-wire-harness.html
The 4.0 looks like it has a straighter cutoff
Are the lenses interchangeable between the 4.0 and 5.0? I just bought a 4.0 with etched lenses and then this came out...
Ryan Shea where did you order from?
@@youngmollabre the retrofit source
Give them a call
They might upgrade them if they haven’t etched yours yet
Hoew can i know if this fits in my Audi A4 B8.. I use D3S bullbs.. HELP PLEASE
You would want to use g5-brt which takes D3S and has same bolt pattern / size as the D2S 5.0 - lightwerkz.net/collections/hid-projectors/products/bi-xenon-g5-brt
4.0 projecter purchase link ,, 4.0 is high beam is super i buying interested
Will there be a bracket to easily just bolt these in on a 11 wrx, instead of just the one for the h1?
Sorry there will not be an option for that.
I have w204 year 2011 bi xenon and i nead to upgrate my projector. Where i buy this produckt.
We have it listed on the website - lightwerkz.net/collections/hid-projectors/products/bi-xenon-morimoto-mini-d2s-5-0 - You may require a projector mounting bracket. This is likely using "Bosch Bixenon" original projector if you have bixenon model. lightwerkz.net/collections/retrofit-brackets/products/bosch-bi-xenon-to-g5-brackets
how would these do with the 2stroke 2.0s in them? will it be ok?
Jeremy Thomas No. Much worse. Hid is the best that money can buy.
Are these in stock Caesar?
Yep, they have them on their site!
U.S. Army Ranger Operator yes
You know
When is it going to be available for RHD?
Terran Eligon when u put an order it ask you if u want LHD or RHD.
@@eacalways Thank you. I know. This is not my first purchase.
Are there any signs of the reflector of this product peeling off?
Full size such safer when compared to mini projector. Use a 3" projector if you can.
@@LightwerkzGlobal What's the reason? Has the plating method changed and improved? Am I using the wrong bulb?
@@jlightings The G5 style projectors never were prone to issues like the H1. We attribute this difference to the size of the unit. The H1 size projector has bowl closer to bulb. Heat dissipation is not as good.
@@LightwerkzGlobal There seems to be no difference in the deposition method? Have you seen any problems with hella 3r?
@@jlightings No problems with coating failing/peeling on the G5's we use.
What color bulb are u using I put 6000k in my d2s 5.0 it's still yellow
What bulbs are you running?
@@slowcargofast opt7 z-arc 6000k
Why would you go ahead and install a garbage hid kit in a good projector?? Lol get some highend Osram or Philips bulbs , you will thank me later
@@justin0943 he's right just install better bulbs. Osram CBIs are a great bang for the buck and produces a lot more light than opt7s. Sorry i didn't notice your reply or else i would've replied long ago.
@@stevenhenry9020 kind of find out they where 5000k that's why they where yellow order different brand niw nice and white
How much
check their site dood
$145. $5 more than the 4.0s
5.0 Americans! 5.0! NOT 5.O!
