The 2018 Ford F-150 XB LED headlights from Morimoto are game changing. We mounted up the proto-type assembly to our test truck and it blew us away in every category.

The headlights feature:

➖Stacked LED projectors
➖Sequential turn signals
➖Insanely bright LED DRLs
➖Gloss black internals
➖Completely plug and play design

🔜 They have an ETA of mid summer.

Morimoto is developing an identical set for 2015-2017 F150s that will have a similar release date. Stay tuned for updates and progress on these. ⚡️



Maybe this will force anzo to hurry up. Not sure how i feel about the quad stack.
They are slick. I don’t know what is available for my 2010 Lariat or if $$ feasible, but do like em. Yup. 👍👍 up.

I can tell you the CrystaLux G11 Series we sell pop right in, no modifications needed, and cause no glare at all in any housing. They also produce the most light out of the products we've tested.
I understand you want to sell your product, but at least be honest in your sales pitch.

A "cheap $35 kit on Amazon" isn't going to blind anyone unless it's the wrong style of bulb (doesn't mimic halogen). That's the real misconception about LEDs.
This bulb This bulb
won't cause any more glare than http://www.4x4truckleds.com/crystalux-led-headlight-bulbs-for-ford-f-150-2015/.

You tried the same thing in some Facebook groups, and you've left (or been kicked from?) at least a couple after being called out for lying to try to sell your products (kinda like your above post). Quite a few people say you've got a good product, so maybe sell it based on its merits? Maybe share links to independent reviews/comparisons and promote your customer service instead of spreading misinformation and/or trashing other products?

I'm not sure I understand what you are referring to there tenx82... where in my post did you see me say as an example "these lasfits, linked here, are terrible" I said that if you buy some cheap $35 kit on amazon, you'll blind folks... and that's pretty much a fact. Take that product you actually linked, that product right there will cause glare... we know this because we've tested it.

Now I really am sorry if you have that product and feel we're attacking you, which we're not, but we've done a LOT of testing (as have other companies who sell LED lighting) and sure enough our results are the same as others... those cheap bulbs DO cause glare.

Now maybe you are confusing the lasfit you linked for the newer ones that lasfit has out now? That's a possibility, as lasfit has a few products under their name in this example. Their more pricier bulbs do actually work better in the anzos then the ones you linked. HOWEVER those same bulbs when installed in a regular reflector style housing DO throw a lot glare.

Now this is a topic about anzos, but since you brought it up, here are the Lasfit LS series (which I posted a photo of above, providing 445 lux of output and a clean cut-off in the projector) now used in a reflector housing. You can see all the glare. So what works in one housing may not work in another , ESPECIALLY with these cheap $35 kits on amazon as I stated.

I see Anzo now has the full LED versions of these on their website. Curious as to if anyone has picked these up yet.
