Just walked into the house after changing my 02 Excursion factory headlights out for these:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fit-1999-20...53.m2749.l2649

Cheap and easily installed. The only issue was one of the factory "mounting nuts" was age welded to the truck and I had to punch it out. (Why not just use nuts and bolts to attach headlights Ford??)

I can attach a photo if you like, but they are an instant look changer.

I used my stock housings, and installed the Hikari LED bulbs. No problems, no glare, and a huge improvement in light output.

Thanks.
I installed new Harley style black housings and used Beamtech LED H13 bulbs from Amazon. What a difference it made, but unfortunately no pictures.

How did you go about adjusting them, and do you have any wall pics?

I put a set of LEDs with cooling fan built in. Almost as bright as my 20” light bar. I got them from https://www.ddmtuning.com/contact/ I’m local to one of their stores. Crazy bright. Right around $100

How do you like the lights since you've had a chance to use them some? Good looking lights and my factory lights are foggy and cracked...gotta do something pretty soon.
