I went with the 2005 version Motorcraft lights and pigtails from Riffraff about a year ago. Easy and clean installation.
Huge upgrade from the old worn out faded assemblies.

Also welcome.
Also Also we need photos....

 

I bought my truck with aftermarket Harley lights, I recommend staying OEM. I’ll probably buy some OEM ones to replace them.

On this subject, does anyone have any recommendations on good quality LED lights to use? My truck had cheap LEDs installed when I purchased it as well. Also, anyone running the “brite box” from Riff Raff?

LED bulbs require a new housing to work well in these trucks. Some have luck but most have to cut and modify to "clock" the orientation of the led bulb in oem housing. Its $$$ to do right.

 

I did my 01 and 02 with factory Ford 05-07 lights. I put the 05-07 header panel in and 05-07 chrome package grill and bumper. everything but the grill came from ford. The grill is aftermarket.

I replaced mine with the '04 version. Added Sylvania SilverStar 9007 Ultra bulbs. Made a big difference.
Changed out the turn signal housings too. Put in Amber LEDs (Changed flasher to the electronic one (EP-27) to keep it from fast flashing.

 

I simply got a clear lense replacement kit from 1aauto. Same bulb style but the non faded lense was enough for my eyes. LEDs require a correct headlamp and so many just have issues when they only do an led bulb vs lamp assembly too.

 

At the risk of reactivating a somewhat old thread...

This one hits on one of my pet peeves - poorly designed LED replacement headlight bulbs.

I went through three or four sets on my F150 and the Mercedes sedan I used to have to find a set that patterned correctly. All of the sets were nice and bright, but the poorly patterned ones were hard on oncoming drivers. I could tell by the number of drivers who flashed their high beams on me when I had the low beams on.

I haven't gone there on my F250 yet.
