He must have also adjusted them because i put LED's in my fogs and they are a lot brighter but they still don't shine far. I need to adjust my fogs.

Yeah I would try adjusting your fogs. It seems that most of them are set way too low from the factory. Mine were low as well and I adjusted them up and now they are much better. It's really easy to do too.

I put LED bulbs in my housings.
Some research is a good idea but pretty much any bulb will work as the 21+ housings are a huge improvement over 18-20 housings. I don't blind oncoming traffic.
If anyone decided to put LED bulbs in the halogen housings you may or may not have to adjust the housing. The light cutoff is pretty good. Research showed me that LED bulbs would work well in these housings but I was surprised how much better they are over 18-20 housings.

Agreed. What brand of bulbs did you use?

Auxito H11 and 9005. High and low beams. From Amazon. Upgrade cost was $93.56. Not likely as good as replacing the whole housing with factory LED housings but its definitely close enough for me.

sorry for delay, been traveling for work.

Yes I used Heise. I first used F150leds.com ones, and they were bright, but scattered. I did the Heise, they are brighter and have a cutoff. Yes, then adjusted up.
