Hey, your kinda right, but to each their own. Love the look, but...

I have a limited with the "performance HID projector headlights", $1400 is outrageous for a daytime headlight in my opinion. I will post a pic when I get mine installed. $1250 left for let's see... a full LED bulb conversion on the entire truck, Billstein 5100 shocks to level this beast, LED F-150 side emblems, LED rocker panal, LED Ford oval under door projectors, 5 cases of beer, some brats, tailgate down, light the fire and throw a big 'ol party for my friends. Oh, and enough left for a full tank of fuel. Now your gettin' lit up. Just sayin'

But the OP's setup does look sweet, no argument there.

P.S. Don't drink and drive.

I agree with you, Greywalls, but, at the same time, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I, myself, just happen to like the look of the performance HID projector better than halogen, in addition to the LED upgrades that are included.

Mine are exactly like the video that CreepinDeth posted. The C-Bar portion is white as I have it wired up to be on as DRL. When the turn signal is activated, the white C-Bar portion blinks amber. When deactivated, it goes back to white.

I also have the turn signal bucket painted gloss black and the bulbs in there are switchbacks as well, that I purchased from VLED's. It's their V3 Triton system. I incorporated that as well with the lights and I like the outcome.

I'll see if I can possibly get a video of my own set up and post it up here.

WOW!!! love the looks of them.

Every time I mention those HIDs, my wife reminds me that our 2 car garage cost about the same!!!

Guess I will have to wait until the supply (wrecked F150s) outstrips the demand (everyone on this forum) to get me a set at a halfway decent price.
Patience will pay off... or I will get tired of waiting and use the $2,000 as part of the down payment on a 2017 Raptor

Thats awesome. I was looking everywhere for the c-clamps that would switchback to amber and back to white, but I couldn't find any at the time. Mine only switchback to the off position.

It's been two months since I said this within this post, but, I had stated that I would get a video of the set up. I finally was able to get it and post it. Just a little something to where you get the idea.
