2015-2019 GMC Yukon performance full LED headlight

[sncourtesy]

Any updates on these lights?

 

[BlackYukon]

Update from Morimoto. The current ETA is June and the price will be around $1,500.

That's a little bit more than I was hoping they would cost, but hopefully street price will be closer to 1K or less.

So these just came out this month. They look great but I’m worried it’s going to be cheap Chinese made junk that will fade/rot quickly

Well so far so good. Re-sealed the headlights and added ceramic coating to the lenses. We shall see how they perform.

Looks good. No dust seemed to get inside while out in the desert today.

I just pre ordered the TRS units for my Denali. Plug and play even for those with hid. I'll post pics when installed. Estimated ship date is September 29

Where did you order them from? I'v been trying to find them for closer to 1k but most places are around $1,300.

@BlackYukon have you been given an ETA or delivery date yet on your pre-order?

There's some decent comparison videos starting to hit youtube on these.

This one compares them to non-HID non-Denali headlight output:

256% Brighter Headlights for your 2015 - 2020 GMC Yukon Morimoto XB LED Headlight Install and Review - YouTube

This one compares them to OEM Denali HD headlights:
2017 GMC Yukon Morimoto XB Headlamp Installation - YouTube

In the Hammerdown Motorsports one
@ 0:34 mark you will see OEM Denali HID lighting on the garage doors
@ 14:58 mark you will see the Morimoto XB LED lighting on the garage doors.

If you open 2 browser windows and freeze these 2 times and compare I'm not sure I see THAT much more improvement over the HID? It's clearly brighter and wider I'm just not sure if it's $1,400 more brighter and wider?

They do look like they will work with ALL Yukon's: with OEM Halogen or OEM HID
The sequential turn signal option is a nice touch.

One concern I would have though is living here in Ohio I do drive my rig in winter weather; LED's don't produce a lot of heat on the front of the lens and I could see that being a problem if driving through snow/ice conditions.

I ordered them Mid-January and was told sometime in February that the current ETA is Late April. I'm hoping for sooner tho.

Yeah I definitely agree. If you are upgrading from stock Halogen to these then the Upgrade might be more worth it. I'm currently running Diode Dynamic SL1 Hi's/Low's, so I don't expect the Morimoto's to be life changing. I bought them because I wanted to change things up and make the vehicle look more modern. These vehicles should have came from the factory with all projector housings like the escalade.

I would assume these will provide enough heat to shield off any Ice and snow since there is three optics instead of just two on the factory assemblies. I could be wrong tho, I'm not sure what kind of cooling technology Morimoto is using with these.

I ordered them from the retro fit source. Was told ETA is now April. I ordered these in August haha

Same place I ordered mine. Hopefully they stay true to their word this time and not delay it any longer.

Not holding my breath unfortunately. I ordered in August with an October delivery. Then in October it was delayed to February. Then in February delayed to April. Hopefully 3rd time is the charm lol I've purchased many products from them over the last 10 years so it's likely the pandemic messing with things so who knows when everything will get through.

Nice patience. Similar story here with delays...

Ordered a pair from Function Factory Performance back in March 2021 as they were listed "In Stock & Ready To Ship".

Apparently an advertising gimmick. FFPerformance has yet to answer any phone calls, return voicemails, and only replies to e-mail if you use their website submitted e-mail form. (At least in my experience). Also, there website is still unable to pull up my confirmed order number.

FFP e-mailed a new ETA of May 22nd writing my name and order is reserved for the first batch going out around that time. May 22nd came and went and nothing. Trying to reach them again I finally get a response that the ETA is pushed back until May 31st and to keep an eye out for tracking. May 31st came and went, again, no communication. Reached out again a days ago and eventually a response that they've been delayed until 6/23.
