Rats they only come in 5500K and sadly I need 3000K
I would jump on them in 3000K color temp. Mine are getting a little OLD and showing it.

Damm that looks good.

You just gave me an idea for a good ad photo. Night shot done in low and high beam. One of each.
Overhead from a quadcopter with a little haze on the road to show the light pattern. You really
would want 4 sets of photos. old lights low then high and the new lights Low and then high.
The better place to do this would be away from any outside lights so you get the most out of
the photos.

I know I think too much.

The Laminx film in yellows is available, effectively changing them to an amber color and protecting the lense.

Hmm,
How hard is it to apply or would be doing that?

BTW this is the first Month without a truck payment and I have not
done anything with the extra funds. I have a few small things that
need done and then look out.


From the photos it looked like the fog lamps have a very sharp cutoff.

It's a film, similar to the protective films you would put on headlights. Not difficult at all. The pictures above are of the headlights, not the fogs.

So I have been thinking about this upgrade. I just put new stock headlights on in March so that's why I have been waiting. Is this truly plug and play -ie screw off, remove electrical connectors, attach connectors and screw down? Even brand new lenses and light are still dim

Yes. I include a wiring harness that plugs into the factory harness. That harness requires you to ground to the chassis but already comes fully assembled and labeled so it's true plug and play

Total time took me about an hour to install. They look great, work awesome and always get compliments from other truck owners!

Yep, it's really that easy. I am electrical impaired, and I was able to do it.

Same here. It will be a fight between new tires or the headlights.

Y'all won't regret this purchase. I've had them for a bit, now. No leaks, no issues. Top notch work. I am really happy with mine.
