    You are a lifesaver, my new LEDs were upside down and the vendor kept on suggesting I had my headlight hoywsing upside down, as it turns out they had to be rotated 180 degrees, No instructions included I was SO frustrated until I saw video explaining hiw to rotate the bulbs THANK YOU !!!!

    I recently ordered the H13 2Stroke 3.0 for my 2007 Ford F250. I installed them as suggested in this video, perpendicular with the LEDs pointed horizontally. I struggled with how very low on-road output and even on the wall the beam was just scattered. So I compared how the OEM sylvania bulb mounted into my Ford OEM housing and noticed it can only be installed one way due to one of the mounting tabs being larger than the rest of the tabs. With that, the filaments are actually not perfectly perpendicular as you guys suggest. It is pointed at about 10 o'clock and 4 o'clock, so diagonally. This is the same for both passenger and drivers-side housings. I oriented the 2Strokes the same way and to my surprise the beam on the wall was no longer scattered and a defined hotspot appeared. The on-road light output was also much 100 times better than initial.

    Awesome videos! Very down to earth fast and no BS! I have h13 out of the 2006 ram 2500, love the GTR lighting ultra2 but I'm choking on the price,. Will a run of the mill HID perform similarly in brightness? Install complexity not withstanding of course. Furthermore, I am a ham radio operator, I anticipate the RF noise to be a bit worse with the HID vs LED. Thoughts?
    Thanks!

    I have the H13 LED bulb from XKGLOW installed on my 2013 dodge challenger R/T. I have the main headlights, the switchback bulbs and fog lights. Zero problems with the switchback bulbs and fog light bulbs. The main headlight bulbs are very problematic. When you reach 95 mph, they start to flicker, the faster you go, the more they flicker, 115 mph, they flicker like crazy. Today i was racing around enjoying some spirited driving and the drivers side headlight low beam went out. I love the look but they are inconsistent at best. I have also tried Lightening dark, they are really good, they do not go out, but they also start to flicker at high speed. Its not an electrical problem, I put the stock halogen bulbs in and no problems with flickering at any speed and they do not go out.

    I'm looking to replace the headlights on my 2010 F150 Lariat. The current bulb is a h13, however it seems any replacements that I find around only fit a h7.
    If I do get a replacement set I'm assuming that I will have to eat the cost of my H13 LEDs, for the H7s? Is this correct or can the H13s be utilized as well?

    I installed a set of H13 led bulbs on a Lincoln LT and 9145 led fog light bulbs. My problem is when light switch is on parking light position I can turn the fog lights on. When I switch them to on (Low beam position) the fog lights go out. If I turn the fog light on it automatically turns the high beams on. Any input on this issue would be appreciated. Btw I have checked polarity and that is all good. I'm thinking it may need a decoder harness but IDK.

      Converting to any LED or HID kit will not be DOT compliant. To remain DOT compliant, we would recommend going with a higher-powered halogen bulb, like the ones from Vision X. Here’s the one that we recommend: headlightrevolution.com/vision-x-h13-80-100-watt-headlight-bulb-set/

      For that year, you will need a PWM module to prevent the flickering. I suggest going with the S-V.4 bulbs with the GTR Lighting PWM modules. That's the best bulb/PWM combo that we have found so far.
