I had purchased a pair of Morimoto LED headlights and really liked the brighter upgrade from the stock halogens. The five year warranty hooked me. So, now I just purchased the LED XB tail lights and love them. I like the bulge out. I wanted a ribbon of LED light, like many newer trucks. Mine are smoked. Good video. BTW, I have a 1.5" front lift and rear air bags to give the extra carry capacity as well as 285 70 15 AT tires.
I actually have the same alpharex tailights on my 14’ and my brake lights started fluttering a few days ago. Unsure if i’ll upgrade to a different light but regardless, yours came out very clean and might have given me some inspiration. Appreciate it!
Hey man - just found your channel. I picked up a 2011 with the 5.0 - you’ve given me some good ideas. I’m thinking headlights/taillights next, but I don’t want to break the bank.
I just put the red XB taillights and the bulge bothered me for a bit but once you step back and look at them they just look so good. Great tail lights!
I'm def. not feeling that gap between the bed and the taillight plastic area. Could add/install some self-adhesive weather foam. Obv. pre-cutting it prior to installing the tailight.
I’m on the fence on these. My f150 is more of a sport truck not lifted or aggressive tires. So these taillights with the bulge is kinda not doing it for me. I was bummed because I actually wanted these before I found out they stick out that much
If you’re stock I’d probably pass on them. They are the cleanest looking tail light for the 09-14 but since there’s so much tech inside they had to build them that way.
Hey man, I have a 2010 F150 FX4 with a 5.4 liter. Do you know how I can get Apple CarPlay similar to the one you have? Where it’s like a sync upgrade? I don’t want the tacky aftermarket ones I really would rather stay with sync but I think the one you have is for 2011+ or 2012+?
Clean looking truck!! Liking the videos keep them coming, just earned a subscriber.All you need is the Morimoto 4banger fog lights to complete the set, they are worth it. I might have to upgrade my Alpharex taillights in the near future. :)
I bought the truck with 18k miles, only thing I’ve done related to the motor is an air filter, heater hoses, upper radiator T and a thermostat. Then just normal oil changes and a couple brake jobs.
I'm indecisive between the red or smoked 🤔 my truck is black chrome package polished wheels might color match later one what you think red or smoked?
I think both would be good. To me the red ones have an OEM plus look to them.

Thats a really clean 12th gen, cheers
Thanks bro!
F150s, when taken care off, age really well.

Yep. After getting em and installing them I was like ya I was sleeping on these.
I have the Roush catback on my truck. Sounds good and very little drone.

Exactly! Hats off to Morimoto for making these. I now couldn't imagine not having em!

Lol I did the same thing… shipped my alpharex back in the morimoto box. Got my new set and sold them on fb for $180
Lights look good tho!
@@ButtersVlogs I plan to do the exact same thing! Thanks man, your vid gave me the inspiration to pull the trigger.

Hell ya, Thanks man! I’m gonna look into them just to finish it off. Those Morimoto tail lights are dialed!
I just noticed in the video I have a reverse light out with the alpharex's installed. Fail
Is that a 5.0
Sure is!
It says no regerts on the thumbnail. I dont know what a regert is
It’s from a movie. It’s really supposed to be no regrets.
Dude I need to know where you got a black tailgate emblem w/ rearview camera at??? I've looked everywhere... or did you just paint it?
Yo so the front and rear emblems are plasti dipped with the overlay decals. Maybe one day I'll either paint them the legit way or buy some.
Not related to the video. Noticed had 174000 on it what if any issues have you had?
Just got a 2016 with the 5.0

@f1fiftyjimmy Thanks, man!
I enjoy the videos
@@revorick4547 yep, thanks bro appreciate the support!
Do you have a lift on the truck ? If so which ones
Its the Rough Country leveling kit. You get the front spacer, rear block and shocks. My Rough Country shocks blew out fast and I run bilsteins now.
Do you have the alpharex for sale?
$500.
Dope truck man. You got an IG?
You betcha, It’s f1fifty.Jimmy
