If you live in an area with a lot more dark roads at night (as opposed to living in a city/suburban area with well lit streets), it's FULLY worth the effort IMO. if you do not, the reflector LED's are still pretty damn good headlights. I wanted them because I'm a nerd and I love turning wrenches, but the turning and glare free functionality are fantastic. The auto level was never really noticeable for me, but if you haul or tow a lot at night I could see how it would be very beneficial

I am looking to switch to them in my 501a!

if you have any questions I’m happy to help, I already sold the set that I pulled off of my truck but I do have one more chrome headlamp that I’m selling, it’s in the classified section

Morimoto to bending and auto leveling headlights are Apples to Oranges.

I grew up driving cars and trucks with old fashioned sealed beam headlights. Now I drive a 2021 UPS truck with sealed beam halogens! So the halogens on my XLT seem more than adequate! (guess I’m truly old school)
