LED Headlight Lens Replacement: Thoughts?
A local shop will, for right around $300, install these Racesport LED headlights in my OEM bezel.

Curious if anyone has knowledge as to whether LED replacements (not just an LED bulb in the factory reflector but a replacement headlight unit) are effective. I'm not looking to try to make my 2013 F250 PSD look "cool" like with Recon drop-in units; I want to see in the Alaskan dark without adding gymnasium-style lamps on a bumper rack. I see plenty of semi trucks running these here so there must be something to them. Thoughts?

Another option is Hella Vision Plus conversions http://www.myhellalights.com/index.p...sion-headlamp/
They are pretty good. You can then use a replaceable bulb in them either halogen, led or hid. They are designed for halogens, I don't know what the light from a led or hid bulb would actually do but they would fit. One of the models IS DOT approved if that's a hang-up.

If you see that many truckers with them then get them. You sure they are LED and not projectors? I see many truckers with projectors not LED's
I have and recommend retrofit projectors from Blackbirdlightingsolutions.com
Bright as bright can be.
