I agree. It is frustrating. The yellow lights are ugly. If they can't offer amber they should look to offering white.

I have an email out to both autoanything and paramount. Will let you guys know if anything comes of it. Paramount should do something for the people who have received yellow lights, seeing as how they have acknowledged the issue.

Wonder if these would fit?

Auto Anything replied to call their customer care line and talk to someone about a exchange or warranty claim. Would it be to hard to just send new lights?

Paramount sells them the grille sold as PROZ and what paramount told me was auto anything are on their own for any warranty issues etc for what they sell. paramount stated they changed light suppliers due to leaking issues which is why the newer ones seem to be yellow. I don't think auto anything has any options it is what it is as they are supplied by the manufacturer which is paramount, same would go for barricade... Paramount should have to note the change on there website so at least people know what there getting. It's kinda BS that they change the lights which affects the color and they say nothing.

That is some poor customer service on the part of Paramount. I will be calling auto anything tomorrow to see what kind of resolution we can come to.

Has anyone tried ordering replacement ford lights for the new raptor or even from the older years? I was looking at the part number 15442B also seen them as 15442C. Those 2 part numbers seem to be for the 2014 model year. They look like they will fit but are crazy expensive.

So far Auto Anything can't offer me any help. I am sending in pictures to the customer service people to show just how yellow these lights appear. I asked if they could just request new lights from the manufacturer and send those instead of wasting money returning it for me to buy one that hopefully lights up amber and returning again if it doesn't. Thats just a lot of time and money wasted in shipping.

The issue with that is the manufacture Paramount has put out they are using a new vendor for the lights. Unless they have a old one in stock and you might get lucky but chances are 0% you are getting new lights.


Hopefully someone comes out with a easy replacement for these grill lights.

I found these on auto zones website.

I'm going to swing by the store tomorrow to check them out. If those wont work I will be ordering part 15442C from ford. That is the factory light from the 14 Raptor. Looks like the connector will fit the paramount harness.

Let us know how it goes. I am holding off on installing until their is a viable solution. It looks like those Raptor lights are $65 a piece right?
