Really interested in upgrading the headlights (low and high beam bulbs) on my 2018, the stock halogens really suck. I found the F150 LED website and wonder if anyone has any experience with their MKV bulbs, or if there is a better alternate.
Alot of talk on this site about LED bulbs so using the search feature will yield many results. I would start at the end of the big threads and work your way backwards.
Hi,I Just bought a set of Led's from F-150 Led's,Cree MKV,The Brightest I've ever seen and the quality in my opinion is excellent, Installation after watching the Video was very informative, I removed all 4 bolts and the push pin and used a bungie cord to get the Liner out of the way

I've never bought headlight bulbs from them but I have bought basically every other led from them including my fogs and I like them. Havent ever had an issue with F150LEDs

any advice? the install and info sounds convincing on their site..
The MKV's sounds like good options perhaps since they used the high powered XHP70 CREE technology. I selected the Ararui's because they use the high powered XHP70 CREE technology after doing a lot of reading. Being new to Auto LED's it seems technology is changing rapidly getting better and cheaper at the same time. There may be later and cheaper options tomorrow but I had to pull the trigger on some technology. While I am waiting on LED parking/driving and flasher bulbs we have tested the LED headlights and I like the brightness and color.
i did supernova v4 in highs lows and fogs. End result i like but i got these because HR said they have the best beam pattern and theyre one of the few that fit with the brightness they have. Well stock dustcaps dont fit the lowbeams so they send you extended ones. If thats the case than they dont fit right? I dont know...first they sent me the incorrect dustcaps and i drove in a rainstorm. took 2 days looks of aggravation and time to get all the moisture out of a brand new headlight. they sent me the switchbacks and correct caps to try and make me happy but the dustcaps felt so cheap...well they are, that i only used them on the lowbeams but used an addition dustcap outer ring I hacked up to keep them more secure. the highs fit inside more and i was able to use the stock caps. But i am curious are these the brightest option and best?...obviously i can use nearly any led if im using extended caps anyways as long as the fan diameter is same or smaller than the supernovas. Plus they only have 2 yr warranty. I paid well over 400 for all of them and I feel like ive been lied to but the install was such a pain im trying to avoid a full refund. The beam pattern is nice and theyre are pretty bright but ive seen brighter on the road. Question is are those brighter ones not only brighter but equal or better quality? Im also not a fan of the rotating collars. They slipped on me a couple times trying to twist the bulb into place making the install that much more aggravating taking the bulbs in and out and scrapped the chrome off and looking at it sit insode the housing only to have my ocd kick in amd spend time getting it oit with qtips on the end of straws and ****... The grub screw doesnt seat into a hole it just tightens down onto the housing so unless you can get it tight to nasa standards its gonna slip if the bulbs resist turning into place. If i knew this then i wouldve drilled a small hole where i want the collar and set my grub screw. Also, if comfortable, take out the headlights and install everything. Its back breaking trying to do it through the wheel area. Was for me anyways. Sorry for the rant. Heres some pics of mine. highs lows fogs and switchback bulbs. Bambi mode via Forscan

Damn those are bright in the daytime. I would love to be driving toward those at night.
