  • This video will show how to install Morimoto D5S HID bulbs in a 2016-2018 Chevy Silverado with factory equipped HID projector headlights (GMC Sierra trucks will be similar.)
    These new Morimoto bulbs/ballasts are 35W and 5500K in temperature. Compared to the OEM Philips bulbs that are 25W and 4200K in temperature. Giving approximately 150% increase in light output.
    Here is a link to buy the bulbs: amzn.to/3zawBIF
    Here is a link to a video I made on how to adjust the headlights:

    Thank you for posting. I'm actually going to swap my 2017 Sierra's bulbs to an LED today and your video made it look pretty simple. I've swapped a 2015 Silverado headlights out but the 2017 is a little different since they are HID instead of the halogens in the 2015.

      ​@fondupot sadly, they're all out due to the ongoing semiconductor sanctions. Hopefully next year they're able to put their bulbs in stock. All of their stuff is backordered as of right now.

    They are not about the same brightness as a 9005. I would love to get set of halogen headlights (lenses and all) for my 2018 silverado P.O.S truck. The stock bulb style (9005) lights on my 2000 gmc were WAY the hell better than the crap on 2018. On fact there is absolutely nothing I like about my 2018. I only bought it because I was I a real bind at the and needed something now. Now I can't wait to get rid of it.

    FYI for the 2017 Sierra 1500 models. we don't have the clip that holds the bulb assembly inside the headlight, we have push and turn instead, because of that there is no LED replacement yet, not that I have found....................and our options for headlight upgrades are very slim pickins, all I have seen worth the effort is the ones in this video (Morimoto D5S, they also are designed for the push and turn mounting) #Fondupot'sGarage should rename the video on the LED conversion th-cam.com/video/YHt1PZ1lQng/w-d-xo.html

    Would you say that the change from 25w to 35w gave you significant light increase? Have you had to replace these bulbs at all since your initial install? Would hate to have to keep spending $350 for bulbs if they dont last.

    • @fondupot
      @fondupot  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes the light increase was significant. Very noticeable. I’ve only had them installed for 2 months and they are still working just fine. They have a 2000 hour life expectancy, which should give years of trouble free use. Also a two year warranty.

      I am not sure, you will need to verify if you have the OEM D5S HID bulb in there. If you do, then yes you can. Another option if you have the OEM D5S is the Lasfit D5S LED upgrade. Check out that video on my channel as well. I am running those currently.

      Hard to tell on video. In person it was significant. This is also good as a replacement when the OEM ones go bad. OEM bulbs are around $163 each, plus tax & shipping. And the morimotos can be had for $350 shipped on amazon. Pretty close to the same price. For a brighter bulb...

      I would agree. I didn’t run these long. I’ve been running Lasfit D5S LEDs for a while. Check my channel for a video on them. I’m also giving a set away. Find the link in the video for Lasfit.
