Glad it worked out for you. So far, so good for me also. Tracking shows my new SuperBright LED tail light bulbs arriving today. I think my LED experience will then be complete.

I did the license plate lights with some Amazon cheapo T10/194. No complaints with them. Now I have extras if some of the trailer bulbs were to go out.
I haven't looked at the cab marker lights up close yet. I don't know if they're already LED or incandescent from the factory. The cargo light/3rd brake light were LED from the factory. Another poster swore up & down that it could not be so for an XLT. But the light speaks for itself.

The cab clearance lights are LED regardless of trim.

They must have been using both on the 17's for the cargo & third brake lights, My XLT's had Incandescence. The only factory leds on my trucks have been Cab lights and Mirror signal lights all others have been Incandescence. The XLT's have a build date of 02/20/17. But they are the standard XLT's Work Trucks.

I think I'm gonna try a set of the Beamtech's I'm getting tired of the fan noise. But the Auxbeams have been working fine for 11 months now.

Thank you. I think that means everything exterior has now been converted to LED.

Ford Etis shows a build date of 7/8/17 for my truck. Maybe those few months made a difference? The cab markers and 3rd brake/cargo were factory LED. I've never checked the spots on the mirrors, but I assume they're LED by the whiteness of the light.

Mine have only been in since just after Christmas. Time will tell if they go the distance or not. I hope so, it looks like several people have gone with Beamtech based on my experience. Could have a lynch mob on my hands if they fail!

Someday when my wife is able to retire we'll be residing south more months than north.
For now I have to be satisfied with my annual 2 weeks in Daytona.

I trailer mine, my wife's and 2 friends' bikes every year. But we rent a house in Ormond after the circus leaves town!
Riding from the NY/Canada border this time of year is not in the cards.
Is that a pan?
