Headlights came in today and installing Friday afternoon. Will be taking some before pics tonight of the pattern, cutoff, and side light for accurate comparisons.

One big question mark I had was whether or not I could get the headlights out with the CBI bumper hoops sitting so close to the body. Thankfully, YES you can. The grill won't come all the way out but you can move it around to access the hidden bolts, and after that just some delicate rotating to get it out. I scratched the stock headlight a little bit during the test removal so I'll covering all lights in painters tape during the install.

Okay here are some cellphone output pics. It's been raining all day so the pavement was soaked and appears darker than it was in the left lane. Definitely not a cone shape like the Pros.

I got a pic of the cutoff, going through a neighborhood, and then going through the city as someone asked for.

Here's the road picture. Three lane road that's already darker due to being soaked from rain. As you can see it still lit up two lanes super bright and in person I could see the far left lane clear as day.

That looks excellent. People are going to want to see the corner lighting which is where the Morimotos fell short, but if you don't get them before Friday I'll post up my own. Thanks for the photos dude!

Subpar as usual. The technology is still pretty young. Even from an OEM perspective there isn’t really an example out there of an LED based unit that outperforms a proper HID projector. We will get there eventually but not with what’s available today. For us lighting nerds I think the only viable option is still a proper HID projector retro.

Yes, pictures of the corner lighting output would help a great deal with comparisons.

Alright it's night time here. What exactly are you guys wanting to see in regards to corner lighting? Just angles from the side or what?

Sitting in the driver's seat -- as wide of an angle as possible so that the sides can be seen. The far corners near the fenders.
