    Well, they come with H7 bulbs not H11 like the OEM lights. So I put HIDs in the low beams (5500k H7b Morimotos- from TRS-the retrofit source). LEDs are not good for the low beams. But they are okay for high beams, so I found some H7 LEDs on Amazon that would fit with those dust caps to put in the high beams.
    Thats 2 sets of bulbs.
    HIDs- lowbeam, LEDs- highbeam.

    I have had Hikari led low and high beams for 2 years and they are excellent. Great color and cutoff. 10 times better night vision than stock halogens.

    Had to go search. It’s been over a year.

    H7 LED Headlight Bulb, CAR ROVER... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HQBWR5F?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

    Hikari LEDs are better, but since these are not OEM headlights, there are Dust covers, and I wasn’t sure they would fit. I just found the smallest ones I could to make sure. And they are just high beams, so not used much at all.

    It was extremely simple. I need to find my instructive pictures somewhere in one of my computers. Bulbs are aligned perfectly. I will search for it.

    I think you were guessing where the range is? Hot... it is close to that highway.

    Will send you a dm. :thumbsup:

    @mrcampos1 doesn’t have OEM headlights. His use H7 bulbs and have dust covers on back.
    I didn’t have to cut the dust covers. The HId’s fit in the low beam with connections on the inside. LEDs fit in the high beams with the connection on the inside.

    Sorry for the misunderstanding. Thread hopping and severe lack of alcohol.

    Kicker DSC6930 and DSC670. Had to snap off some clips from Crutchfield's rear door adapters but everything else installed smoothly.

    “Ouch” I’m not gonna feel sorry for you, you’re the one with TT :)

    I worked for a Porsche dealer back home and on my last day one of the customers (who owned my dream car) came in to the garage and surprised me by taking me out for a spin. Those cars are made for English B roads and roundabouts... sticks like shit to a blanket comes to mind :)

    The distance from the side of the bed to the outside of the tower is 4". 4 1/2" to the outside of the hexbolt on the removable piece at the top of the jack that looks sort of like a parallelogram. If you took that piece off and fastened it at a different point on the jack it's 4" the entire length of the jack excluding the mechanism and the base plate. The base plate is also removable. Hope that helps.

    I’ll have to measure the clearance between my bedside and truck box. Thanks for taking the time to measure for me Bob!
