Default OEM Super Duty LED fogs plus Bambi mod

I got my Platinum SD LED fogs in today and combined with the Bambi mod enabled with Forscan this weekend....it's a whole damn lot of light. All I got were crappy phone pics...sorry.

Looks great! How well do the lights match color wise (kelvin rating)?
I got the Morimoto xb led fogs but they are a bit more blue-ish than I like and am considering selling them and grabbing the Super Duty leds instead

They're both OEM lights so far as I can tell they match perfect. The heads are obviously brighter but the color seems on point. No matter what they're better than those hideous halogen bulbs. lol

Looks great! I always forget to undo the Bambi mod prior to going in for inspection... Only allowed 2 forward facing high beams in TX, or something to that nature.

Looks great. Is forscan the only way to do the Bambi mod? Can a good dealer do it?

Technically, the Bambi mod is illegal (can't have 6 filaments burning simultaneously), so most likely not. And, it requires tweaking bits directly in the module - to my knowledge it's not an option directly exposed in the scan tool. For both reasons, not likely to happen.

Forscan is easy, and the BT adapters aren't that expensive. Pick one up and do it yourself. There's quite a few more fun things you can do too!

I've got retro'd anzos in TX. When I hit highs, I get HID low beams into high beams, my high beams ALSO come on with 2stroke LED's and my fogs also lol. It's basically daytime. I run a a shop and we do more inspections in Dallas area than anyone else... Never failed anyone for this or even heard of it.
