I have been on the fence about what to do with my headlights until I read about these LS460. Have you had the time to figure them out yet, and can you add ccfl's or do you only do the LED rings, and will the Osram bulbs make much of a difference over the Phillips. Just wondering if the Osrams would be worth the extra cost?

Ive been working on the 460's the last few nights and Im not feelin it. They are going to require some major work to fit plus to really look good they may need a vacuumed formed shroud.

Honestly, all the work involved will put it out of most ppls price range. I will get them to work and if anything run them in my truck but its going to be a while.

Sorry guys, I do have a bit of positive news though... more pics to come.

Absolutely, PM me with any questions you may have.


Are you referring to the shroud that goes over the projector body.


Theres a couple ways to go about it. Basically its so big that the gaps would look unfinished. That guy from sick hid's does it with his F150 builds, Im assuming for the same reason.

Ill take some pics so you can see what I mean. Im not giving up on it but I wont sell something that looks like it was just thrown in there.

So heres the 460 next to the MH1.... yeah, totally different animal.Its pretty apparent why it outperforms every other projector out there.

heres where Im at now, you have to cut most of the reflector out and Im still having trouble fitting it.

What I was talking about is a vacuum formed acrylic from the projector lens to the outside of the reflector, or something like that. It just looks too "hacked" if I were to leave it like this

Like I said, I wont give up on it and hopefully find a high quality way to finish it that is reasonably priced. I know I could throw a FX-R in there and be done with it but those are a dime a dozen and in my opinion the MH1 has a better output pattern. Ive searched the web and have yet to find anyone who has put a LS460 in a F150. I will educate myself on different types of vacuum forming and come up with something, its just going to take a while, not enough hours in the day. lol.

My ballasts are for the most part completely exposed due to my tube bumper... No problems at the Raptor Run or yesterday when the rain from the run finally made its way to New Orleans and DUMPED on us while shooting the dealer event for new 1199 Panigale... (see above)

If you have any reservations about these lights you shouldn't. If you were to ever have any issues I'm sure Dawson (Ducati) would stand behind his product and make it right. This is the single most useful mod I have done to my truck and honestly it will make you a safer driver in dark conditions. The way these lights kick light to the side is NIGHT AND DAY different from the stocks.
