No idea I've not even been out at night yet with this van, I've just always used nightbreakers in my last 4 vehicles, and these days I suppose the new upgrade is either led or hid

It’s been posting daft questions ever since it’s been here. It’s common these days. Snowflakes are taking over the forum.

I put these in my transit custom 2017. For high beams.

Good improvement in light output.

Only downside is you don’t get a good uniformality of light coverage.

So am now installing a light bar as well.

LED high beam on the left. Halogen Low beam on the right.

LED high beam has gap between low beam. Not ideal. Unable to lower high beam only.
Head ligh adjustment screws change both high and low, cause they act as one unit inside housing.

"It's"? Do you mean gender neutral or gender fluid by that ?
Either way it's very considerate of you not to assume a person's gender :D

But the biggest nob is the one that wastes everyone's time with pointless comments that no one gives a toss about in with meaningless info in someone else's thread..

And besides I want up to date information on my question not old information..
