Raptor Retrofit provided an update on November 3rd in the fog light replacement thread over on F150Ecoboost.net. They are expecting delivery this month and have 1000 units in the first production run.
Confirmed
I had a chat with Dawson @ RR today and he did confirm that he will have these Morimoto fogs for sale on his site upon release. He's projecting the release to be around Thanksgiving into the first week of December.
Unlike what *SOME* sellers would like you to believe, theses are a perfect fit for the F150 foglight location and not a 'small LED lamp with a shell' to make it fit.. This is a PROPER LED foglamp with a cutoff so you're not glaring other drivers.

Sure would be nice if they offered them in 3000k and 4300k.
Another thing, why can't led and hid companies offer a color temp that is identical to halogens (~3200-3300k)? That's the color I really want my fogs to be. I want the halogen color temp with the lumen output of HIDs.

I mean, he's not entirely wrong. They look to have a 1" bezel or so around them. Easily could have gone to a 4 or 5 led set up with a larger lens instead of adding filler around it.
They still look awesome, and can't wait to see the performance on a 150. Should complete my front end lighting perfectly
The way he **** on the idea of the Morimotos to potential customers in his thread, whilst promoting the glaring, no-cutoff alternatives was laughable at best.

Clearly he's trying to spead misinformation about the size and quality of the Morimoto lights in favor of his own. Perhaps he just wants to maintain sales as long as possible, or perhaps he isn't nearly as 'in the know' as others but he definitely isn't presenting himself in a positive light.
The alternative - The JW Speaker LED foglights, have a similar sized lens anyway.
