Projector Headlights for Superduty...
I was just wondering...I have been seeing on e-bay these "projector headlight" assemblies...After an extensive search of the web I am only able to see what the assembly looks like and NOT what they actually look like on the truck! They look pretty cool from what I can tell and I'm leaning towards buying some...Any of you guys have these things on you rig? If so, would ya mind giving me a little info on them? the websites are vague at best !
Thanks guys !

CobraGT40,
If you are talking about HID replacements, they are illegal on the Highway and are for off road use only.
Here is a recent thread on the subject and in post #12 he has a link to the conversion he did.

Hope this helps

I have a set of the projector style lights on my 2000 F250 crew cab. These aren't the "HID" lights, they use standard bulbs, I chose to put the blue style. The lights look GREAT on the truck, but are basically cheaply built, and the beam adjustment was a pain. My particular style light is made from APC I believe?? Seperate lights for hi/lo beams, with a built in fog light with seperate switch in the cab. I can email pics if you like. Overall I am happy now with the lights, but installation definitely wasn't easy!

I'll check once I get home, outta town right now. But they use the standard size bulb, I just chose to go with the blue colored ones. The fog lights aren't offered in a blue bulb though, unless there's something I haven't discovered?

But don't quote me on that.
