I got mine today, my sticker says chrome too but I did get black, I just hope (double light bars) means "switchbacks"
The part numbers right so I guess il just cross my fingers..
Did you leave the moisture packets in or take them out?
Curious to hear your review on LED light output plus any install tips..

The 2 anzo wires (GRND and Directional wires) for the Vampire clips go to the blinker bulb harness wires??
What are their colors on the harness?

Keep the packets in there...silica packets for absorbing moisture.
Yes the 2 wires go to the blinker/running light harness. The ground is the black wire on the outside and the directional wire is the one opposite of it. The middle wire is the running light.
I snagged this diagram from Diode Dynamics website...one of the wire colors is off but it is pretty close. Like I said the two outside wires of the 3 are what you need. Ones black and the other is the turn signal.

^thanks for the diagram, I am going to try to start putting all of the bulbs in later tonight and get it ready for install. Looks like I probably will not get to the install part until Monday, wife wants to go out of town to Atlanta this weekend so that puts my install on hold till then.

Well I started my led install and then got side tracked getting ready to go on a weekend trip tomorrow. I got one housing done with the highs and lows. I went to install the led switchback turn signal but the led did not fit the connector right and after I thought that it was secure, I tried to install it into the housing and wouldn't you know it, the led fell out of the socket into the housing. Damn, was I worried that I would have to bake my new housings. A little of jiggling and I got the led lined up and it came out. Back in the package it went. The halogen turn signal bulb fit great, the led not. For the High beam, I opted to trim the boot instead of cutting around the adjuster screw, also, made a kinda keyhole on the bottom of the boot and the wires are feeding out of the bottom instead of cutting the back. Put silicone on, held it tight for a few minutes till it started to cure and the boot is good to go. A little extra silicone and it is sealed up pretty well. I also used velcro to secure the drivers and canbus anti-flicker boxes, hopefully nothing is in the way during install. More to follow on the other side and the install.

Some people leave them in, some take them out. I took them out when I installed mine and have had no moisture issues. They have been installed in my truck for well over a year.

Thanks guys, i think il leave them in..

Thanks for the diagram CFTC!

Vintage man: What led blinker brand bulb did you have trouble with? This is why I might stay incandescent on the blinker.

My forscan cable will be here tomorrow so I'm going to hold off on the install till I try the software..

You should leave them in. They are in there for a reason.

He had issues with ours. We're using a typica 7443 bulb as we sell them to more then F150s but on the 2015+ trucks it's a different housing. Here is what we put on our website for 2015+ customers:

NOTE: Some customers may experience issues with the fitment of these bulbs on a 2015+ Ford F-150. The factory socket is a 7444 (which is typically universal with 7443 bulbs). With regards to the 2015+ Ford F-150 some customers may experience the bulbs falling out of the socket if the bulb is hit (or from vibrations). Should customers decide to purchase these bulbs we recommend placing a dab of silicone/glue between the bulb and the socket to ensure the bulb does not fall out (just a dab, you do not need/want to line the entire base of the bulb with silicone/glue). We are working on a replacement 7443 bulb for the 2015+ Ford F-150s
