Well Hell. Amazing at night but.... the passenger turn signal sometimes gives a lamp out hyper flash. TRS is telling me to bypass the capacitor so I get take the front of the truck off for troubleshooting.
Anyone else having any issue like this?
I suppose I could Forscan it away but I'm disappointed with a $1500 headlight that wasn't supposed to do that.

I installed mine today on my 2018. It was easy and I did it in about 2 hours. The fender flares gave me trouble not wanting to come off.
The headlights look great. I can't wait to try them at night. I have 2 small issues with them. The wires are a bit messy. They could have done better. The other issue is how low they were aimed out of the box. WAY LOW. I maxed out the passenger light to get it near wear my OEM lights were aimed.
I used the wiretap for the DRL. They are bright and then dim when the lights are turned on. It is not instant and happens within a few seconds.
I also installed the Morimoto XB fog lights. Pain in butt. Save yourself some trouble and pop the old ones out from the front. Be careful to not to rough up the trim. There is a Youtube video of it.

I haven't had time to look at it. I have noticed that mine will hyper flash when I first use that signal but will stop after a short time and not do it again until the truck has been off overnight. Someone suggested in the 2015-2017 thread that this may also be that the wires are incorrect on the headlights and need to be corrected.
On a side note, I wrote a review on TRS that was 3 stars (my opinion of the lights) and they changed it to 5 stars when they published it. That's a shady business practice and I have asked that it be corrected or removed.

I noticed if I hit the hazards that seemed to "correct" the issue until it sits again. I just installed them today and have an email in to TRS. I'll update if I get anywhere with it. That's pretty crappy how they would manipulate the review though.
