Think its antenna or just where I live... Light upgrade for the price is WELL worth any minor radio interference...which I don't think I have

I had the radio static on all stations, was perfect before headlight install. Sent a message to beamtech and they sent "decoders" that plug in line no other mods. Radio reception is perfect again.

I used the Beamtech 9005 for the fogs. 2 pairs of H13’s for the headlights. No radio static for me and they all match very well.

Thanks guys! I bit the bullet and ordered all 6 bulbs from Beamtech (Amazon).

I’ve been wanting to do this mod for a long time!

Amazon had a flash sale on the Beamtech LEDs Saturday and I picked up the bulbs for the headlights and the fog lights. I'm looking forward to installing them next weekend given the results that many have seen.

Update 5/30 - Had a few minutes today and installed the fog lights... amazing the difference in real life, look great but can't wait until its dark to see them better

From what I gather from posts here it seems to be a hit or miss thing. Mine have been in 2 different Super Duties since Christmas 2018 with no problems whatsoever.
But others have had to get the "decoders" as Beamtech calls them and it took care of the problem. Word is that Beamtech will send them for free. At least Amazon is easy and free to return stuff with their UPS Store or Kohl's drop off options now if it didn't work out.

I installed my beam techs about two years ago and I absolutely love them! Recently i installed a 2.5in leveling kit and i am getting flashed by oncoming drivers now. This never happened prior to installing the leveling kit. Does anyone know how to adjust the beams down? They are currently installed in the 3 and 9 o'clock position as instructed.
