Lots of great info here, nice discussion from all. It really helps more than just myself as the OP.
I am going to ditch the factory housings for sure. I kinda like the ones I posted a link to a few pages back.
I checked, they are DOT approved and it appears that consideration was given to properly directing the beams so they don't offend oncoming drivers.
And the relay harnesses are a must IMO. One thing I have always disliked about the factory setup is either low or high beams being on. Properly directed and done, I prefer all 4 on for high beams.
I've been kinda busy the past few days, haven't had time to look further. I've looked st all the suggestions and links provided.
Although there have been a couple comments against the LED lights, I feel I like to have them and would like to pair a set to aftermarket housings.
When I upgraded using headlight revolutions plug and play all I had to do was remove the units, install the bulbs and plug in the harness. I found a wall and using a tape measure marked the wall with a tape line (can't remember the height, there is a video out there) backed the coach up so many feet then adjusted the lamps. There is no side to side adjustment on the Fords, just up and down. Since then I had excellent lighting, no oncoming drivers flashing and low beams worked for many situations that used to require high beams.
