Here they are installed.

My overall impression is favorable. Quality is similar to eagle eyes brand. Here's some daytime pics. Tonight I'll get some more and post them too.


EDIT Getting a good night time pic is difficult on a cell phone. I did the best I could.

I think they look great. They compliment the shape of the front end the way the light follows the interior curves. Having another headlight alternative and a way to differentiate your car from the masses is a good thing.

That painted Heritage Grill looks awesome on there btw.

Thanks. I agree the more options the better. She's already gotten a couple compliments from the neighbors. Going to a meet up tonight. We'll see how the regulars like them.

I really like these. If I didn't have the factory halos/hids, I would likely get a set.

Clean man! How is the brightness?


And you said 'favorable', so does that mean there were things you don't like?

The only thing I didn't like was taking the front of the car off, but it's pretty easy.

They are bright and I tried a night pic but it just washes out to a big bright spot. I'll keep trying night time shots. Maybe I need a filter or something

If the quality was OEM these would be a steal at thee price point. None the less they are still a good value. I'm going to leave them in. They are turning heads and sparking interest at car meets. Tonights meet, I was 1 of only 4 5th gens out of 100 or so cars. And I got interest from many of them. All said the same thing "I've never seen that option"

They look nice with the heritage grill. My issue is the brightness factor. I’ve always liked the subtleness of the factory halos. Just an opinion.

To F150ish for me. The factory halo's are one of my favorite features though.

They came out a lot better than I honestly thought they would. If the need ever arises to replace my factory Halos this might be the way I went. Probably the best looking aftermarket head light I’ve seen for these cars.

The projectors are in the center, correct.

I wired these so I can turn them on and off whenever I want.
