DESCRIPTION

Retrofitters rejoice! The ninth-gen Mini H1 is here, featuring the same overall shape and design of the prior versions with a substantial improvement in performance. Morimoto's lead optical engineer was tasked with designing a new reflector bowl and was able to get an average of about 200% intensity allocation to at least 13 different locations of the beam pattern*. If you're a seasoned retrofitter or even attempting your first, the output of the compact Mini H1 9.0 builds on the great history of the Morimoto Mini H1 projector PR009. *LB2V/UB2 table used.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • Advantage: Average of 200% intensity compared to the Mini H1 8.0 across 13 different beam pattern assessment points.
  • Easy Install: Simplified installation process with minimal cutting, making it the most popular Morimoto bi-xenon projector.
  • Stand Out Performance: Advanced optics and AR clear lens compete with top OEM HID projectors, delivering a wide and uniformly lit beam.
  • Anti-Reflective Coating Lens: Blue-tinted lens with AR coating to enhance light transmission and reduce glare, increasing light output by 5-7%.

INSTALLATION DOCUMENTS

Nine is Fine: Morimoto invented the Mini H1 and always set the benchmark high when it came to the H1... but no matter how many imitations popped up over the years, the competition just couldn't compare. In fact, no alternative ever even caught up to the 7.0 generation. It's not that the 9.0 represents an entirely new generation of Mini H1, but Morimoto took a good thing and made it even better by baking in a few more years of refinement.


Advantage: The distribution of light as good as ever with the new 9.0. Your ability to see is maximized with a meticulous LucidShape-optimized output that makes the 8.0 seem ineffective in comparison. It's amazing what a few tweaks to the optics can do—and the 9.0 crushes it. Without considering the aftermarket preference for a well-defined cutoff line, upper illumination is considered, meaning road signs at 100m are now given 5x the visibility—an immense improvement, over twice the comfort/volume of the width impression. Distance center is even up 56%. The numbers add up to an insane output from the same basic design. Lastly, the bulb holder shaft base location tolerance has been significantly improved.


Easy Install: The Mini H1 9.0's amazing ease of installation relative to the amount of performance they produce makes them our most popular Morimoto bi-xenon projectors. Simply remove light lens, insert the threaded mounting shaft through the pre-existing hole in the back of the reflector, hand-tighten, check rotation, tighten, and re-seal lights. Minimal cutting involved. (if any!). Check out the installation guide for more information.


Stand Out Performance: With the most modern optics, the AR-coated clear lens, and their curved cutoff shield; The Mini H1 9.0 will outshine almost every OEM HID projector on the market and go head-to-head with the legendary S2000 projectors! (which cost 3x as much, are much harder to retrofit, and don't even have a high beam) Their wide, uniformly lit beam stays intense all the way to the outer limits. The Morimoto Bi-Xenon projectors provide an insane amount of additional light on demand.


Shroud Compatibility: The smallest Mini Gatling Gun or Mini Graphite shrouds keep things compact and easy to assemble using the provided screws. Full size shrouds are also compatible with the Mini's using the centric rings, but small dabs of epoxy are recommended to ensure those remain seated on the projector's lens holder.


MotoHolders: Are the high-precision H1 bulb holders that Morimoto released in 2018, and they now come to standard. It utilizes a three-piece design that's way more effective but virtually no bigger overall than the old paperclip setup. The clever three-piece design provides even pressure on the back of the bulb, ensuring perfect alignment. If you've used the traditional paperclip style bulb holder, you know how poor the design is. The MotoHolders are a game changer despite being so minor.


Anti-Reflective Coating Lens: The blue tint to the lens is more than marketing fluff too. That's an AR coating, and it serves a real purpose. AR coatings increase the transmission of light through the glass while decreasing light bleed. The result? 5-7% more light and less glare compared to a traditional clear lens. The blue-hue may not be for everybody, but in this case we're down.

The best projectors I've ever owned!

by

I've had the Evo x projectors and they are wider and maybe brighter but these 8.0 have way more color flicker on the cutoff line. They look beautiful! Especially when I'm behind a white car,looks real nice. I use these on my classic 1993 Honda Del Sol Si.

Perfect for a Crown Vic

by -

This was for my 2010 P7B. First time I ever messed with projectors and HIDs in general. I decided to do a retrofit on a set of aftermarket smoked housings. There was a little bit of work involved to get the projectors to fit, but a dremel tool and a step drill bit worked wonders. The install was super easy. The bulb holders are perfect and really secure the HID bulb in place. There is countless of YouTube videos out there for assistance. I decided to make my own headlight harness, that had upgraded sized wire, and made my low and high beams work perfectly. The cutoff with these seems amazing and it’s so dang bright now. Everyone knows the Crown Vic has horrible light output, everybody should totally get these.

A great upgrade from the Mini 7.0s

by

I wasn't sure if it was worth an upgrade from the Mini 7.0s, but it proved to be a good upgrade. The cutoff is a great improvement and doesn't have too high of a step this time. The beam seems wider and more focused down the road. I'm certainly glad that the lock ring is finally upgraded (only took 8 versions to figure it out). I'm happy that the improved bulb holder is included in the purchase. The one thing to point out is the high beam leaves some "blind spots" on the road; they're only visible from far away and occur when there isn't overlap from the two projectors. I've only been able to see it once and will update if it happens again; never noticed with with the 7.0s or earlier versions. These are a great upgrade even if you have 7.0s and are brighter, wider, and have a much better cutoff than the previous versions!
