[QUOTE="4x4TruckLEDs.com, post: 1205133, member: 24442"] Yeah that's why I upgraded them. It gets rid of that ole halogen orangey look and gives you a pure white look. The bulbs are not that bright. Our brightest 194 bulbs are 100 lumen, whereas our brightest 921 bulbs (same T10 base but just longer) are 900 lumen. So you can see there is a big difference. We'd never really go above 100 lumen on the license plates since you don't need it. AND you are installing two bulbs. We sell our XHP Series and G9 Series headlight/fog light bulbs and the biggest question/comment we get about Fords with OEM LED is "why didn't they put in LED fog lights" - probably cost to be honest, but that's why we sell so many of the H10 bulbs for the fogs. Same with the other LEDs. Sure Ford gave you LED spot lights on the mirrors and LED taillights as an option but nope... let's give you regular halogen bulbs on the license plates... I don't get it. They did the same on the non-raptor Trucks. SOME (a lot) 2015-2017 F150s have halogen bulbs in the 3rd brake light/cargo light. And those things get HOT and melt hte damn housing (which is why folks are upgrading those to LED). They DID come out with some trucks (Raptors of course) that had LED housings from the factory but there was no rhyme/reason as to WHICH trucks got 'em. [/QUOTE]
