Look at Headlight Revolution. I use the CSP bulbs. Way brighter and they fit right in.

Man... I am glad OP started this thread! I came here today looking for recommendations for an upgrade. I've got a 2018 XLT with stock headlights, and they are way too dim IMO. Has anyone looked at F150leds.com yet? I was thinking about getting the Cree headlight bulbs package for high/low beam replacement for $299. Anyone try these out and can talk about their experience? Thanks!

I had alpha Rex pros with led bulbs, there were an improvement over stock but not super bright. Last year I upgraded to the morimoto XB's Gen 2. Amazing difference with the light output. A big reason why I went with morimoto is they have a 5 year warranty and alpha Rex only has a 2 year warranty.

Reason why I went with the CSP mini's is they were an EXACT fit replacement- everything tucked in and the boot / covers went right back on
Zero modifications

These are just bulbs right? Not a whole replacement like the morimoto I see everyone talking about? I can't afford $1200. Just hoping for some.bulbs that I can use in the original housing. Can you provide a link if so? Thanks!

yep- they were just the bulbs, not the complete housing.
Go to headlight revolution and do a little re-search, its pretty easy even for a old fart like me that is literally 'tech" stupid

LOL... Thanks! I'm an 80s kid - GenX. Some would consider me to be in the 'old fart' category too. Not me though... I'm just getting this model broke in. :-)

Okay... A little more expensive than the Cree package. But still nowhere near $1200-1300 of the morimoto or other complete replacements. Did you also get the grease, and anti-flicker harnesses?

Its been a few years but they were about $400 for all 4 @ the time I am thinking. I got the CSP mini's for the low beam ( top ) bulb And the SV.4 for the high beams, I got nothing else- no grease no nothing extra, just what came with it and it all fit in place of the stock bulbs with no modifications.
