Thanks for the write-up. This is at the top of my Mod list.

What no video this time? Slackin! For the price point these are a great way to go - especially for those who are dumping all their money into suspension upgrades. I am planning on one or two of these bars soon. Nice writeup Bird!

Great write up Mr.Bird. I thought the same thing about the brackets that came with my M&R 40". I must've flip flopped the brackets like 10 times to where I got it to work. How are you liking you're stock projectors? They look pretty sharp on white

Thanks. Yeah the contrast of the dark headlights was one of the the main reasons I picked white. The HIDs are very good. Once you get used to the flickering over bumps I can't complain they are a hell of a lot brighter than the old headlights and I love the white color temp.

Yes I would have to agree, they do look pretty nice on white.

Nice write up Andy, and the truck(white) doesn't look half bad either.
I'm surprised with all this light flicker from the new Raptor projectors, Blondie2487 also said he gets the flicker.
My wifes new 2013 Ford Edge has projectors and I haven't noticed any flicker what so ever.
I wonder if it's just in the F150 lights.

Might be...it's only noticeable off to the far side of the beam it doesn't affect anything else..I'm used to it now.

I havent noticed the flicker on mine yet.

Birdie, you say are using Aux 1, so i'm assuming you had to change the aux 1 fuse to either a 10 or 15 amp. Or did you go with the 30 amp fuse? I thinking it doesn't draw that much amperage!

The light draws 15-16amps.
You can replace it to 20amps or just leve it.
