Along with the wrinkling of the housing below the lenses, here is a list of issue's I've sent to Morimoto, most of which I've noticed the past month or so.

1) This wasn't a big deal, and I overlooked this issue, but the first time after turning on the car and using the sequential turn signal, the LED strip only lights up about 2 - 3 inches. The second flash and any signal after that, the LED strip lights up all the way. This happens on both the driver and passenger side.

2) Upon inspecting my lights this past week or so, I've noticed the black paint/plastic below the projector lenses are starting to wrinkle. This is happening on both the driver and passenger side. I've read that other Morimoto assemblies have had this issue due to sunlight getting magnified by the lenses and melting the paint/plastic. I've tried to attach the best photos I could get of this.

3) Last week after running my car through the car wash, I noticed the DRL on the passenger assembly flickering. This stopped after about 30 min. of driving. I do not have a photo or video of this.

4) Last night I turned off my lights, and the top projector LED stayed on (did flicker some) while the other two LED's cut off. This is happening on the passenger side assembly. I've attached a photo and video of this.

I've been in touch with Morimoto as Z1 said they wanted direct contact for warranty issues. They have agreed to replace them, but I am waiting for next steps.
