They may claim they are DOT compliant, but the bulbs will blind oncoming drivers with a sloppy beam pattern and the fans on the SL1 are really loud. Tried them on my 2016 Focus.

The beam pattern is not bad at all on any vehicle we have installed them in for not having a projector. and they are compliant it was a huge cost for them to get that stamp so truckers and haulers could upgrade to something brighter.

we have had one set go back for burning out for all the ones we have sold and it was warrantied.

The product beats the rest on the market from all of our testing.

Post a picture with the beam patter against a wall at 25 feet, please. I'm curious how clean it is.

Switch backs anyone?

We get to pick up the shop truck this afternoon.


SL1 sadly isnt on the car yet due to needing a custom collar to rotate the proper way in the housing. They are going to get that r&d done asap and get the truck back when they have some prototypes done.

Side markers, Fogs, Turns w switchback will all be on the site shortly!

Thank you

A custom collar? The SL1 is supposed to mimic a standard halogen bulb by placing the LED diodes where the filament would be.

I'm in for switchbacks if the mustang style headlights don't pan out.

not all headlights are the same.

we are working on solutions now may not need a collar but a custom dust boot. we are working through options


I am going to be listing the lights up now that we have in stock and some that are on backorder but we can get you on a waiting list

Thank you

Am I correct in thinking that the switchbacks are only for the XL and XLT trims?

Good call.

With that being said anyone local to STL with a lariat?

Thank you

The only bad thing about the Diode Dynamics turn signal replacements is that you can see the yellow boot/housing in the headlamp. But its a quick and easy fix :)
