I think I'll do this. Your truck looks really great and I want that look. Thank you and all here for sharing this process.

Done. I like this upgrade a lot.

Did fogs, lows and highs.
A couple of minor notes: I went through the fender liner with very little effort. No need to remove the headlight housings. I did buy 85mm extended dust covers, but they didn't fit very well. I tried the standard covers, and they went on fine. So the heat sinks don't have as much room, which isn't ideal.

Thanks again, and sorry for the bad phone pics:

Great informative in depth LED review BlackBoost!
I just have one question, is a canbus needed when installing the led bulbs? I think I'm going to try the Sinoparcel H11 to start with, then add the high beams if I like the Sinoparcel low beams. Thanks for any info you all can provide.

I have a 2016 with the sinoparcel LEDs high, lows and fog. I don't use the CANBUS adaptors and have had no issues. Hope there will be issues in the future. Btw my lows are still drl and fog lights are always on.

I'm also running the Sinoparcel led lights in the lows/highs on my 18'. No canbus issues. Stock covers fit fine. Lighting is a huge upgrade vs stock.

I have a 2018 also, so this is good news to hear. Everyone is always talking about how bad the headlights are, so I was actually surprised that they aren't too bad. Of course I'm use to driving a 1999 F-150, now it has really bad headlights! Any improvement over stock will be a huge upgrade for me. LOL

Some report lights going out, others don't. I think the LED resistance is very much on the borderline of triggering the sensor from turning off the power. For me, the passenger light would turn off. Sometimes after a 2 seconds, sometimes after a minute. I put in the CANBUS modules and haven't had a problem. They're cheap and easy to install anyways.

Can't see your Sig on my phone. What year is your truck? Running sinoparcel or other brand? Just curious.
