I've been running the Lifetime LED bulb replacements in my '11 for about 8 months now. No issues so far. Only regret is that the high beam is only slightly brighter than low. Low is far better than the OEM's or Sylvania's (which I'd tried before the LED's). Would I do these again.........probably not.

I'm curious to see the before an after for any vehicle really if you have something.

Roger that. Very interested in lumen and lux comparison figures, if available. The more information provided, the more convinced the prospective purchaser will be!

Olympus, can you please describe what comes in the kit? I passed on the electrical engineering degree, so the black boxes puzzle me. What do they do and where do they mount on the Raptor? Thanks in advance.

Which version did you get? I just got the 70W version. By the way where did you mount the Led driver?

Hey! Sorry havent been on here in a while.

The black box contains the control modules for the LED Bulb itself. Basically a circuit board. For Vehicles with the Canbus system we place the needed modules inside the box. Some Lights we have started to condense everything to the light itself cutting down on the area it takes up.

We do not manufacture everything on the headlight itself in house and wok with a partner company. We finish the driver in house. Hoping to have a new model out sometime next year that will be much better and uses more technology to sustain the light and will be compatible with projector style housings better than the existing design.

Posted a couple examples customers have sent us.

Mac, the ones I have are 22w on low, 30w on high beam. I mounted the driver to the outside "wall" just behind the headlights. There was a relatively flat spot and they're holding just fine with 3M industrial Velcro. If they ever loosen, I'll drill a hole and screw them in the same spot. Interested to find out how you like the 75w bulbs.

LED replacement bulbs have just now popped up on my radar. Definitely looking forward to hearing more.

Would love to see a side by side comparison of the 70 watt led compared to stock

Are you running the highest wattage available?

Interested in these new ones for projector housings, do you have an approximate ETA on them?
