    They are sealed LED projectors. Like an OEM style LED projector headlight. No removable “bulb.” It’s not like putting an LED “bulb” in a reflector housing or halogen projector.

    We do have this little problem though...

    20190807_092805.jpg

    All functionality of the lights work in every scenario...and that warning only comes on when the actual headlights are turned on, after about 30 seconds. DRL function and turn signals do not make the malfunction warning come on. The only way to clear it is to turn off the truck. Reaching out to TRS

    .... to be continued

    Do they in fact use the factory switch to adjust them up and down?

    Yes...the leveling switch (0-5 dial) does adjust the beam up and down. Will test auto high beams tonight when it gets dark, along with beam cutoff pics.

    Definitely will, as well as group buy options if they decide that's the route they want to go. Currently just testing all options that I can possibly think of before my long email to them regarding status

    Un-effing-real!!!! Absolutely love them.

    100p in for a group buy.
    I wonder if they'll do the headlight + free morimoto fog light deal they did with the super duty lights on black Friday last year. Really the only thing I'm waiting for lol, Canadian dollar sucks, can use all the savings.

    That really sucks! But the real question is, how much brighter are they compared to OEM LEDs? If they are twice as bright I might consider. Otherwise I can live with stock LED.

    If you've ever done a projector retrofit, this is equivalent

    Never done a retrofit but I've done a swap out for d5s hid on my Silverado, 35w to 55w and it was blazing bright.
