Well my passenger low went out after 4 months. Pulling the lamp, I found an unusual bulb, slightly wider and shorter than OEM H11. It also has a 2 prong plug vs. the socket on OEM. I tried putting in an H11 and a H16 fog HID kit, but neither worked out - the bulb has to be exactly the right size to project a usable pattern, and these didn't line up. The H11 OEM is on left while the aftermarket is on right. The bulb looked good, so I don't know if it was it or the housing that went out.

Not having time to trouble shoot, I ended up putting the OEM housings back on with some fresh silver star ultras which end up being much brighter than the projectors. Any suggestions for trouble shooting the housing while off truck? I already miss the look of the plasma tube (which work great still) even with better lighting. They make the truck look so much better...

Wonder if these headlights are able to be retrofitted with better projectors?

I still want to see a actual picture of the output and cutoff line. Noone who has these has produced one so far. One person said output is less than stock, which is disappointing, but im hoping as well they can be switched for better projectors

As for the light output - we shall see. Here is the pics on my garage from about the same spot, but it was almost dark in the stock picture, while sun was out when I shot the aftermarket.
