LED/HID to replace OEM on 2000 F150
#11
Now an XLT in Colorado
I have the same black Harley lights in my DSG flareside. Honestly, I don't think there's a color truck they wouldn't look good in. And yes, stick with a good halogen bulb. No LED or HID retrofit bulb will work correctly.

LEDs aren't bad if you align the bulbs properly and adjust the housings a little lower than you would for halogen bulbs. The problem is 99% of people don't bother. They just throw them in like a halogen and call it good. Once they're aligned properly you'll get a definite crisp top cutoff line and you can use that to adjust it to be kind to other drivers and have a nice wide well illuminated view for yourself.

Using scientific testing equipment shows this to be the case. I said before, the human eye is a horrible thing to use to test light output.
