Headlights Morimoto or OEM Volkswagen
Jetta headlights
Never in my Mk7. But in the CPO Arteon, I got flashed at quite a bit. I adjusted them down.
I activated the DLA and euro functions of my headlights on my 2023 Arteon SEL Premium with a few clicks on OBDEleven. Works fantastic!
The only reason a switched from oem to morimoto, is because the stock fr-s ones are very ugly and the don't light up the road that good. Morimotos are better looking and better at lighting.
I put a set of Morimoto Xb v2's on my '18 and love the look, they are built similarly to the OEM but have options for amber DRLs which I like the look of.
You could get aftermarket headlights that look similar to the factory ones. Morimoto makes one called the XB.
In my case, about 1/2 to 3/4 CCW turn with philips screwdriver did the trick - now headlights aim just a little higher on each side… Importantly, I am not getting flashed by oncoming drivers while using the low-beam headlights.
I own a 2017 ford escape myself and I installed morimoto 2 stroke 3.0 in my car but there expensive.
I got these lights a little over two years ago. One light had the led plank go out. Got it replaced under warranty but still have to go through the hassle of removing it and shipping it. They also charged my cc for the replacement light until they received my faulty one then refunded me. Second light had a bad shake when going over bumps. Turns out it was the shutters the projectors use. After I got that replaced under warranty I just sold off the set at a loss and went with alpharex.
I was just in this predicament, I went with the morimotos and have regretted every dollar spent. Ill spare the details, some of it was warranty process, some was quality control, burning the end the product just isnt great. At best its OK at lighting but a huge appearance upgrade - which is why I think most people rate them so high.
