Just posted my initial review in the Auxito thread but figured I would put up my own thread to make it easier for people to search. I ordered these bulbs through the Vial here on FTE and the process was super easy and my bulbs arrived quickly. I got a little over excited so no pics of the packaging. Install was easy and straight forward. I haven't tested them on the road yet but I assume I will have hyperflash until I make the necessary changes in forscan as I didn't install the included load resistors (can't bring myself to monkey with the wiring on a 2 month old truck). Overall I think these will be a quality product and will most likely purchase from Auxito again (Hmmm, looks like it needs headlights now). The link shows them only working up to 2021, but they fit & function fine in my 2022 https://auxito.com/products/2017-2021-ford-250 . Bone stock, that little hint of orange was bothering me for some reason. Just seemed out of place on the clean white. Noticeable but blah. Driver side, I was able to pull the socket and bulb out without removing the washer fluid filler neck. That is a little better. Pretty good side by side comparison. Granted it is not especially dark out. Passenger side, pulled the plastic push pin on the intake horn and loosened the clamp on the intake tube. Everything simply pops out of the way with a little tug after that. Parking lights on, looks so much cleaner. Hazard lights on to simulate directional use. These look much brighter and because the bulb itself is black, it looks super sleek when none of the lights are activated.
I'll try to grab some more pics after dark tonight. Really makes me wish I had used the free bulb offer to get headlights as these are almost as bright as the halogen headlights are now.

For those who have installed the H13 led's: I'm having second thoughts about the fit. Are the tabs different sizes like the OEM halogen bulbs. IE will they only go in one way? Reason is on a previous post someone said the led have different thickness and the thin side should be up. I can't really tell from looking from the outside what the exact orientation is but it seems to me I could only fit the bulb one way. My patter seems ok, but like I said, just having second thoughts, and I don't really want to take the front end apart again.

I had the same concern when installing them as you do as the OEM tabs are more pronounced than the Auxito. It's a little less obvious at first glance but the Auxito do have one larger tab to orient them correctly. I think if you're rough enough you could force the larger tab through one of the smaller slots, but sounds like you are good to go. I have to imagine they pick dimensions that will work across many vehicles and that's why the tabs are not exact to the OEM. They seal tight in the end so it works out fine.
Thanks.. I'm leaning to the fact that I installed them correctly, as I turned them until they slid right into the slots.. I just didn't think of looking at the tabs when I got them. Just assumed that they were the same as the OEM. Oh well, you know what they say when you "assume".
