Just bulbs or housings? If bulbs everyone is pretty much running beamtechs in the halogen housings for led, if your looking at whole headlight assembly upgrade pretty much OEM led housings or morimotos will be best.

How much do you want to spend because if you want to go with new housings and depending on the brand, your starting range will be in the $500.00-$700.00 range and can easily reach or exceed $2000.00 dollars for a complete OEM setup once you have all the OEM parts.

On the other hand, a much cheaper option would be bulb replacement and there are many brands and options to choose from.

Take a look at the Diode Dynamics website or give them a call. I’m sure they’ll be able to get you squared away.

I hope this info helps you out.

Have a great day.

Hey Juan,

If we can answer any lighting questions for you, feel free to shoot us a PM! While we unfortunately don't offer an H13-size LED headlight bulb yet, we plan to release one in the coming months.

In the meantime, we're happy to help in any way we can.

I have the 8000's. I had to turn the adjustment screw all the way down (it was just a few turns) because I kept getting flashed at night.

Thanks for doing that...
I see so many annoying lights that I seem to think are the ones that folks put LED bulbs into.

I'm installing Supernova V4's tomorrow morning.

Supernova LEDs - Fitments - Quality LEDs for your Car

I installed the dual mode V4's (white / yellow) last Sunday. They looked great but, they were defective. Modes did not work correctly. 3 second trigger for mode did not work right.

Joey was great, refunded the difference and promptly shipped out the white only versions for the headlamps and fogs.

They arrived today.

Great string here and good video on install.

I have had great success over the past 18 months with my SuperNovas from Headlight Revolution. Incredibly bright. No flash. Zero issues.

Hey Dan, great video. Got my Supernova V4s installed today. I screwed up and broke the front grill camera - bad news - $180 bucks... parts coming tomorrow morning. That was an expensive lession. Outside of that the V4's are great.

Question - I see you have an Ultimate - any issues with your auto dim/lamps feature. Should be no issue but thought I'd ask. Also did you lower the aim slightly to avoid on coming flashing from others?

Thanks

Bob

Hey Bob...great questions. Auto high beams work perfectly. Just like stock so no difference in timing or how/when the truck switches from low to high beam and back.

I did not need to change any aiming and I rarely get flashed. I believe when I do it’s more of someone looking at 4 headlights on and then they assume it must be high beams...ignorance about the headlights on these Super Duty trucks.

Hope that helps!

Another question - I installed the lights with LEDs verticle (top to bottom) in the housing which I believe is correct. I notice a couple of dark spots in the pattern at night. Do you know if there is any adjustments on the V'4's? I'm starting to wonder if there is a difference for the Supernova's from Supernova and the one's you sourced from Headlight Revolution?
