How much of an upgrade over the halogens are these, including fog? My father's limited Ram is good in clear conditions, but absolutely awful in fog. We compared his truck to my wife's tradesmen with separate high/low side by side. Wife's truck high beams were useful, His just makes a super bright cone that lights up the water particles right down the road centerline.

Looks great lots of work and $$$. I just upgraded my bulbs to the GTR 2.0 and works great. I looked at aftermarket headlights like the alpha Rex but too gimmicky the startup lights to seem more novelty. I prefer more go than show..

Agreed, most of the aftermarket lights are pretty cheesy. Enjoy your bulbs. Any upgrade over the halogen is definitely an improvement.

5:25 also, I found it much easier to find the nub at the end of the screw, between the gap in the "pinch" points of the clip, and pushing down with my fingernail while unscrewing from the other side. this way you don't need to rely on pressure alone to get the screw out

Well, after completing this task for my Alpharex Novas I have to say, that was a metric pain in the ass. It took about 1.7 "fuck!"s to get the fender flare clips off and about 9.63" damnits" to finally free the balance. Thankfully it all went back on easier than it came off. POS plastic screw clips never work as advertised either.

Thanks to this video, mission accomplished! Thanks for this tutorial. Put lariat headlights in my xlt as well. Some parts were pretty tough. I did not end up unscrewing the wheel well mud barrier. The screws were plastic and stripped out. Luckily was able to work around them. Putting it back together was waaaaay easier than I thought. I put that wind guard in before putting the front grill back on. Good stuff. Thanks again!

Not a problem, you can absolutely run daytime LED lamps. All it takes is a few changes through Forscan and you will be up and running. Do a quick search on Google or take look on the "Ranger 5G" forums and that should get you squared away..
