I was tired of the bland look of the stock front lights. So like many others I started searching around for other options and there are a ton to choose from.
I went with this set.

Shipping was a quick 3 days arrived safe and sound. So I got to work on the patient.
As we all know one torx bit and a few minutes time is all you need to pull the lights on one of these. I had previously installed LED headlight bulbs, in stock Ford housings. So I had to trim the lock rings on the headlight assemblies to clear the oversized portion of the LED heat sink. No big deal there. Now for the marker light assemblies it took a second to square that away. The LED set up there plugs into the bulb socket. It's not marked which way it goes, so trial and error will happen here. Be sure to check before you pop it together. I will go back in tomorrow to wire in the Day time running lights into the parking light circuit. I was out of weather proof connectors to do the splices with. Silly me thought they would have a proper connector installed. No directions or wiring diagrams either of course...
Anyway here is the finished product.
