I didn't want them to be too bright for oncoming traffic. These are already a ton of light. So far no issues with them. They are warrantied for life I think too

in legal Marijuanaville!
I swapped out the stock bulbs with PIAA Xtreme White Plus. The difference was noticeable but not a huge improvement. Will be getting some Rigid fogs soon to supplement the not-so-great headlights.

Replaced mine soon after I bought the truck with Phillips X-treme Power Headlamps based on BigJ's recommendation and they made for a substantial improvement over OEM bulbs.:favorites25:

I got these and I like them

OEM bulbs are horrible and dangerous IMO
Phillips is just bright enough to keep me happy and safe

sylvanna silver stars or WHAT EVER is sum junk
OSRAM bulbs are good but can't touch PHILIPS
PIAA and that other off road company makes CHEAP JUNK

either get PHILIPS EXTREME VISION 100's or do LED or HID. 100's or nothing

I'm not looking to HID swap my front headlight assemblies...

But I prefer the "whiter" look... 0n my 2009 Z06, they do have HID's, but I replaced the bulbs with an even "whiter" bulb.... I think they were called "Sylvania Silver or White Stars"?

My point is.... other than going HID, have any of you swapped out the bulbs on your Raptor yet for something with a whiter type light? IIRC, the single bulb houses both the low beam and high beam bulb somehow...

If you replaced your bulb... do you have any before/after pics?

Brand/Part #?


I tried 3 or 4 different "ultra white" or silver star type lights and was never happy until HID's

What're you trying to sell?

Not sure what you mean... Just saying that I too had wanted a direct halogen swap, but never felt like I could see until I put an hid kit in. Even then, it took my a couple to find a good/dependable set.
