Pickup trucks headlights evaluated
Not HD trucks unfortunately: Pickup Mag I'll say that my F350 headlights are awful. I added an LED lightbar to the front to compensate. But its use is limited.

LED Headlight replacement kits are available but you would think that with the price of a new vehicle, lighting should be one of the first things they would have thought about.
These don't work well, as the relector bowl is designed for a halogen filament bulb. LED bulbs need a projector lens to disperse the light properly. LED & HID retrofits into a halogen style refector scatter the light all over the place, blinding oncoming traffic as well as having a very short throw. Adding a proper projector lens matched to the type of bulb, while time consuming, is not that difficult, and yields amazing results.
x2 ... please don't put upgraded bulbs into a standard reflector housing. Spend a little extra $ and buy the projector upgrade, either OEM or after-market.
