    Yes, I also make a v5 module which is listed. So the LED T harness + v5 harness is a frequent combo.

    If I get some time I’ll start tinkering with a puddle harness DRL injector for the v5’s but that really only saves effort at the door boots.

    Been browsing this thread off and on, not sure if its been asked: If the headlamps were to go out, are there replacement bulbs/upgrades for it? Thanks in advance :cool:

    Don't stress. These have been out for a few years and I have not seen one issue or anything go out.

    Appreciate that… trying to get some OT at work to pull the trigger on some, and a few other upgrades.

    Says adapters are also included to power the running lights, if your truck doesn’t come with daytime running lights (non-DTRL) from the factory.

    I’m nearly certain they are relabeled Chinese Vland. Form is a sub-brand/company of Diode Dynamics for a lower cost tier imported Chinese lights to somewhat compete with Morimoto’s sub-brand GTR Carbide lighting, which also uses lower cost tier imported Chinese lights. Vland products won’t be on par with Morimoto’s headlight assembly offerings from Taiwan made by COPLUS. I believe Form was going to test the assemblies for compliance and possibly tweak them as they saw fit, so there shouldn’t be the product performance defects sometimes seen by value brand Chinese imports. I haven’t personally tested them.

    Interesting, I may just stay my path of going OEM then, I was just curious if you tested them yet and how they panned out.
