They spill all over. Cutoff is atrocious with hotspot above because a 2 sided LED chip clearly has a different light output and shape than a filament in a halogen. You are disrupting others.

At dusk on a crowded highway turn your lights off and see how dark the highway signs 20’ in the air get despite the dozens of cars around you.
I appreciate the concern trust me I do I had the same concerns when buying the light's because I myself don't like being blinded while I drive, when I was testing the lights out and got in another car and looked at it from an oncoming person it wasn't much worse than the stock halogens. I had a 22' civic with stock LEDs prior to my ranger and it was about the same if not worse and that was stock. As much as I love discussing the lights and I genuinely do like having these conversations I'd rather not clog up my build journal with it lol.

I'm Still Down to go for sure, I haven't had the truck out much other than that one four peaks run I did and using it to take my 450 Out riding, There's a bunch of us trying to figure out a weekend to get the trucks out here soon I'll DM you on Instagram once I Know more!

So I finally got around to installing these diode dynamic ss3 pro fog light kit and WOW they are nice, The fog pattern is perfect and gets a lot of light everywhere. The install was very easy I just dropped the bumper which is 6 bolts and took the housings off and swapped these in, and while the bumper was off I slid my crash bars out as well!

Haha yep ?
Btw I will be working on a roof rack design for my truck this weekend, the plan will be something similar in style to a front runner or prinsu with pods or light bar in the front (will be using diode dynamics) and flush mount dd ssc2 on each side of the rack with the back 2 being ambers for chase lights!
