Default LED Bulbs

I found these and was wondering if they required a projector headlight. Also how effective are these?

No they don't requiere projector headlights the only difference it would be focus on projectors instead of spread out. These are really effective in my opinion better than HID no though they last longer too I own set but mine are xtreme.

Pricy at $159.00 (and up). But it does include an F150LEDs window sticker.

LED headlight bulbs in the 04-08 housing are horrible. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I tried them as well as others with 04-08's and they agree. Absolute waste of money. But hey, if you want to try them, report back.

I bought a set from lifetimeleds. I'm pretty happy with them, but they do scatter.

Interesting as you had them for sale and I bought them. I personally thought they were horrible and I ended up reselling them. But it's a chance I was willing to take.

Duly noted. I guess there is just no shortcut to retrofitting.
