Just ordered Sinoparcels LED heat braided H13’s for my 2007 F150
I want to do my fogs to color match but I can find any fanless 9140 bulbs mentioned on any threads here.
Any recommendations?
Thank guys

Don't forget to re-aim your headlights! You don't want to blind oncoming traffic.
Hopefully your 2007 will have the same nice cutoff the 13th gen has.

My Sinoparcels came in the other day, so today was the day for the install on my 2007 F150.
Total install time was less then a hr. for heads and fogs.
All I can say is thank you for this thread I couldn’t be any happier with the Sinoparcels.
I dont think any adjustments are needs I drove around for a good bit in some busy areas and no flashes.
Headlights only no fogs
Hi beams no fogs

I need some good LED Bulbs that last longer that 1 year, I had my truck for 2 years now and been through 2 sets on led bulbs. For the price of these bulbs I should be getting more than 1 year out of them. Now I am in the market again for another set of bulbs because these went out on me last month just never got around to doing some research.

UPDATE!
So 2 years and 8 months later after installing these, I've switched.
I was in a drive-through and the truck in front of me had a silver bumper. I noticed in the reflection a flicker of light. After a couple minutes I noticed my driver's side headlight get a bit brighter. I stood outside my truck the next morning in my driveway watching my headlight. Sure enough, the outside LED's on the bulb turned off, then came back on after a minute. Now the outside ones barely throw any light forward so it never made a difference visually from the driver's seat since I have Morimoto FOG lights on as well, so the sides of the road are well lit by those.
To prevent having to change bulbs in the upcoming winter, I switched.
I decided to stick with BPS Lighting since I liked the previous product. And for $90 (Canadian) it was a good deal.
But these new ones are different:
As you can see, unlike the previous set that have been used here in my original post as well as Sinoparcel (and similar), they have no fans and no cooling strips. They also have newer CSP LED chips which are more efficient and smaller, which also allows having 4 LED's per strip instead of 3.
Other differences is that the previous set was 22 watts and 4000 lumens per bulb, and these new Ultra-V ones are 25 watts and 5000 lumens per bulb. So total output goes from 8,000 to 10,000 lumens per set of lights.
These also fit completely inside the housing and stock dust cover, although I still opted to keep the canbus modules outside the headlight assembly, so I did run the wiring out of a slit in the boot.
The color is the same as the previous set, but they are noticeably brighter. It's possible that my old set were going dim, but these are brighter for sure. The cutoff pattern is also the same and I haven't been flashed yet.
I'm very happy with them and can't complain about the price. I'm sure you could find the same bulbs rebranded under other names if you can't get these shipped to you.
For anyone curious as to what happens when you leave the copper braiding exposed and sticking out of the dust boot covers for almost 3 years, here you go:
A bit of oxidization and some dust accumulation, but other than that, it's not bad at all. All the connectors including the twist lock one were dry, clean, and corrosion/rust free.
Oh and in case you're wondering, no you can't see any of the purple color in the headlight at all...
Here's the Amazon link where I bought it (remember the $10 coupon discount!)

So, 3 days so far. I leave for work when it's still dark out and I can say that so far these are just as amazing as my original set. Since I drive the same dark roads every day I can say for sure that these are also a little brighter. I was also driving around late last night and super happy with the performance
