please help! is it true that you need to some how connect the projector and led wires to the turn signal or parking lights wire?

 

The LED's operate on the parking lamp wire, and the projectors can either be spliced into the low beam or hi-beam wire. Your choice. Personally me + about 3 million people on here think they are too cheap, leak, and too difficuly to install and look stupid. Try OEM L's, they look better and are simple plug-n-play.

x2 Love my L headlights, can't beat the style and ease of install

 

Knowing that opinions are like a-holes, everybody has one. IMHO, I like the look of the projector/LED head lights. I have them on my truck and I think they look great. Mine installed easy, don't leak, and shine a bright light at night. I struggle with the statement that 3 million people here don't like them but I know there's a lot. I like mine and there's a lot of others here that do also, so you chose what you want. BTW, the L lights are cool to.

 

Newbie question alert!

What are these L headlights?

 

Ford Lightning Headlights.

 

Thanks!

 

For fuuture reference, you will hear people say HD, L etc

HD = Harley Davidson (Supercharged SCrew with fancy plastic and paint)

L = Lightning (Superchaged F-150)

 

I've had mine for about 3-4 yrs now and I still love mine. Never leaked It's the 2 piece set up though. I really like the one piece ones a lot.

 

^^ Looks sweet but the L-style turn signal w/ the orange stripe on the bottom looks better IMO.

How's the light output on those things? I never see any actual shots of those against something.

 

Yeah when I bought the corners, I couldn't find any I really liked so I settle on these apc corners to match my apc headlights. If they didn't have the orange reflector in them, I would love them. I couldn't figure out how to take them apart without breaking them to get it out, so I left it in there.

The light output on mine are just as good as stock lights, but I've heard the ones with all the leds don't have as much output. Mine has like a fog light built into them.

You got a pic of the L style ones?

 

i also have the projectors(1 pc) and i like them alot with an all black truck.
ill admit that the licght coverage is not as good as the L lights or regular lights but if you put HID's on them and HID's your foglamps..the light output is really awesome.
i also have strobes in my headlamps so what i did was to hook my LED's to my turn signals while my actual turn signal spot is accupied by my strobes.

Mine are also an L style witha projector, except mine have a black housing. Mine came with it's own wiring harness that hooks into the factory harness. And for the projector part you do need to cut out some of the fiberglass behind the light, but it's not all that big a deal since you won't even see it.

 

Wookie, do you have the projectors set on high or low beams? Can I get a shot of them on so I can see what they look like when lit?

 

The projectors are only on when the high beams are on (along with the main light). I'll try to get some pictures, I don't have any night time pics of em right now.
