Yes, they did fit. They are D3S bulbs, and I assume they are all the same structurally. The ballasts fit perfectly in the factory spot too.

One thing I noticed is the bulb that was in one of the lights I received was an Osram 66340HBI. The bulbs I received were Osram 66340. I tried searching but could come up with nothing indicating what the real difference is between the two. Only information I could find was the the "HBI" version was used by OEM and not available in the aftermarket retail. I would love to know the real answer, and if there is any difference between the bulbs as far as output goes. They are both 4300k.

Good luck with that, lol. That is exactly what I ordered from Tasca, and it has been a week with no information. Just called again, and the guy said it is closed in their system, but still showing as processing online. Said he was going to walk to the shipping department and check on it and call me back. That was over an hour ago. I'm really getting tired of them. From all of the reviews I have seen regarding Tasca, everyone seems to have had a great experience with them. My experience has been not so good so far, to say the least.

I sure wish I would have known about that a week ago, lol. I did get everything for about $80 less, but I'm not sure if that $80 savings was worth the aggravation.

That being said, I finally got ahold of someone at Tasca who was willing to help. I told him about all of the calls I had made, and the lack of help I had received. He pulled up my order, and asked if I minded being put on hold for 2-3 minutes. 15 minutes later, he came back and said he personally pulled the parts, packed them, and shipped them overnight at no extra charge (charged me $8 standard shipping), and gave me a tracking number. Said I should receive the package tomorrow by noon. Here's hoping.

I'm sorry I didnt catch the guys name, but if anyone from Tasca reads this board, thanks are in order.

I also sell brand new OEM F150 D3S ballasts and bulbs (including the bulb retaining plate and screws). The only thing I don't have is the ballast screws & dust boots.
