JW Speaker 06+ fog lights

I just replaced my Morimoto F150 specific LED fogs for JW Speaker 6146 LED fogs. Light output is better, not as wide but foreground and beam intensity is alot better. My only concern is the size of the fogs themselves.. There are only 4" instead of 4.5" so there is a gap around the fog and the stock bezel. Anyone else with these fogs have this problem and could you post pictures please..
Thank you!

Did you have to modify the stock brackets for the Morimoto's?

Just had to add a L bracket to the driver side so you can mount to be fog light.

are they water proof, if so, why are you worrying about the gaps?

Yes and no actually. They are a fully sealed housing that is"supposed " to be water proof. One is not tho and keeps getting water in it every time I off road.. But that's not the point. The point is I'm a perfectionist with my truck and you can see the gaps around the lens themselves. Which wasn't there with the OEM lights.

Always knew that JWspeaker lights were superior to the competition but their price tag was always a stumbling block....their output look sweet

I really like them. Besides the size of the housings. The gen 2 XB have better output than the gen1 with better foreground, but not barely as wide.
