Well this morning was my first drive in the dark with them, and they are pointed way up lol. But seems almost the same as stock. Planning on getting these LED headlights soon though. My stock headlights were pointed up cause of my level before but these were even higher so I'm finally gonna adjust them lol

Thanks. Those look good. I have the spec d that first came out for the 09-12 and they are fine in my 14 and I really like the style, it fits well with my truck. But, I don't like the fact I have no option to aim them and I get a few flashes occasionally from on comers. Looking for other options or considering going back stock and throwing a film tint on them.

Did you ever get these adjusted down to where they need to be? Any issues since?

Awesome! Looking to replicate your setup. Anything I should know other that an even swap?

Pretty straight forward. 4 bolts holding on the grill, then it pops right out. Two bolts holding the headlight on, as well as a plastic lock that is accessible from a small flap in your wheel well. Isn't too hard.

So what's the difference between PERDE and TYC? Or are they the same thing?

Says they are “PERDE by TYC” on the lenses. Assuming it’s like how Zone lifts are made by BDS? Same thing, different name? Not 100% sure. But have had lots of rain fallowed by sunny 75*-80* days and haven’t had any problems with them. I put a bead of silicone around them before I installed themc4cc69c3f562af5db1982c3d3c60be11.jpg
