Had some help on my installs...I'm paranoid workimg on a new truck. Thanks for the for the info Tom. Headlights are in and they absolutely rock. I played with adjustment tonight and have them in a good place. They are as good as headlight can be. Absolutely amazing.
Im have a bit mor difficulty with the fogs. Not sure what I'm missing. They are aiming higher than my low beams. It does provide an interesting illumination package, but don't think they will do well when the cloud sets in on the mountain. Mine were a direct replacement for the stock lights that came with the Lariat. Not sure if something went sideways with the install...need to check on that tomorrow, but they sure will need a lot of downward adjustment to bring them anywhere near low as the stock light were. If someone with a good install can post a picture it might help. I'm sure we can get it figured out.

I'm having the same issue as you Carl. Fogs definitely shine much higher than the low beams. I think part of my issue is the adjustment screw with the stiff spring. I think I need to apply more force while tightening it in order for it to adjust.
By the way, tonight I was driving home and would turn on the fogs and I could barely see them. The other night, they were extremely easy to see. The only difference tonight was the snow on the ground and in the air. The slightly yellow light of the low beams cast a better light spread against the white background. It's going to be interesting once I get my new HID headlights to see the visibility difference.

I would be tempted to try 3000K but that might be way too yellow.

I'll post a pic tonight, however I think my issue is install related. Can someone who has these working post a closeup picture of their install? Im guessing to adjust, I need to get to to the back of the housing, which I don't seem to have easy access to. But before I tear it apart, should I see a nut on the front bottom of the light? There seems to be plenty of spring for adjustment, but it just seems like something is missing.
