Hm. I've been eye balling those lights for the longest time. Be sure to post pics of the output (before and after you swap HIDs!). IIRC the high-beam projector uses the mini H3 bulb and you have to cut the header panel to get it to fit.

Good luck with the HIDs. I had the High/Low kit in mine and I never got a true high beam. The bulb moved but the only thing it did for the glare was increase it. Never got much higher light beam.

Nice fogs, though!

So I got them installed and just got back from drivin down some country roads to check out the light output. All i can say is it is a MAJOR improvement over stock. I can't even imagine how bright they will be once the HID's are in. DDM contacted me and the HID's are backordered. Pics of the new heads and fogs will come the next time i get the chance.

Your going to love the fog lights, Ryan.

As for the heads, I can't really say anything, but I too am curious to see how well they are made and the light output they have.

FordGuy24, Not yet. I am still trying to get my mom to pay for it because it is not covered by insurance. If worst comes to worst i just might have to live with it until i get the whole truck painted.

DirtyD, I already love the fogs, as for the heads, they seem to be built much better than the stock ones, not that that says much...
