    Looks great man. Those 35's fit so well on the truck with the fender trimming you did. Are you getting any rubbing or did all the pre-trimming do enough to keep it all clear? Also any close ups of the raptor lights off?

    And I agree, on a DCLB the 35's are the ticket and look proportional

    Haven't had much seat time with them at night, but so far I am impressed. Not really a fair comparison to my previous setup (tuned RX350) because now I'm running 4 projectors. But The color temp is perfect, and has decent width. I have noticed The hot spot is pretty intense and focused, even more so with quads.

    My personal opinion is good for what they are, obviously no match for a high end hid set up. Perfect for plug and play set up. Wish the light was more distributed then just focused so much at the hotspot. Also distance is a little lacking but that's expected with LEDs

    Exactly. I also did it for the minimalist wiring, No bulbs to change, etc. Ran them for a while last night and they are starting to grow on me. IMO the price point should be around ~$199/pr. but they are new, so hopefully more alternatives will come to market and performance will get even better.

    TRS is making a beefed up version but it's going to be 300. We will see if it's actually beefed jp
