Alpharex Pro Series Headlights on my F150! / Auxito LEDs

[@isaacocasio3165]

Yeah first of all do not apologize for the video being long because this is probably one of the best videos I have ever seen on KZbin. If I ever had the balls to make a video this would be how I feel it should be made. After days of research you have just helped me decide and thank you for the content

[@MeAndCarKeys]

Thanks very much for this comment!! I’ve watched this video back a few times and still beat myself up about it being too long and too extensive, so I definitely needed to hear that! Thanks alot for the comment and thanks for watching! What you decide on getting?

Awesome video, I installed mine yesterday and now have to take them out to add DRL harness and LEDs. I wish I would've found your page first, lol. Dope truck!!

[@MeAndCarKeys]

Awesome!! lol I know what you mean! It’s a pain to take them out again, but the LED will be worth it! lol Thanks for the compliment on the truck! Let me know how it goes! #motivationcrew

[@jimmyhorton8297]

Man, that turned out great! Gotta admit though, I was yelling at my phone the whole time, “ solder the wires or use waterproof connectors! “. I believe that the purpose of that extra wire is so the daytime running light can run brighter when your lights are off. So it would be brighter during the day, and then at night when your lights come on, the intensity goes down so it doesn’t over power the headlights. I could be wrong, but I think that’s how it works. Im glad you got everything hooked up and working, that startup sequence is wicked. This video did confirm something for me though, I’m not messing around, just gonna break into my stash cash and go for the full enchilada! Just gonna bite the bullet and go with the Morimotos. No messing with extra bulbs or anything, just straight LED. I’m dreading taking apart the front of my truck though, such a hassle to put in a headlight. Anyway, enough of my rambling, thanks for the content, truck looks good, have a good weekend!

[@MeAndCarKeys]

😂 😂 thanks! I didn’t think about that, but I’ll definitely go back and use the water proof connectors! I actually already have some too! Yeah I read up on it afterwards and saw that about the wiring harness but there were no instructions included which is still weird to me. Those morimotos!!! I wanted to myself, but the price stopped me in my tracks!! But I guess it’s worth it to have built in LEDs; you just plug them in and go! You’ve gotta send me a picture when you get them!!!

[@jimmyhorton8297]

@@MeAndCarKeys , yeah it’s crazy that nobody includes instructions anymore. I felt the same way about the Morimotos until my brother put them on his 2015 F250, then I was sold. They look sooooo good, and they fit so well. I will definitely send a picture. Have a great Thanksgiving, all the best to you and your family.

[@brian4661]

Man those headlights for your truck looks cleaner than my gmc alpharex! So many wires in the light housing! I’ll need to double check up on the leds! Great video!

[@Robert8455]

Thank you brother. Great video, very well explained and filmed. I have a set in glossy black, the lux series for my 22 and was curious about the wiring because like you I did not see any instructions in the box. The only thing I might suggest to you is to wrap those connections with some good 3M tape. Ideally solder the wire because the crimp connectors always become a source of trouble later on.

[@MeAndCarKeys]

Thanks a lot bro! I’m not sure why they wouldn’t include instructions, that really baffled me! But good advice! I was really being lazy and anxious to get it done. I’ll definitely go back and solder! Thanks a lot for watching and for the comment! Any issues with yours so far?

this should work with a 2020 model right? also, does the auxito include the low and high beem led set or seperate? first time ill be doing an led upgrade on aftermarket headlight set as well. thanks

[@MeAndCarKeys]

The 2020 headlights are shaped differently, they extend longer. here’s the link: amzn.to/3vQIu9Z The Auxito H7 comes in a pair so you’ll have to order 2 sets. They are exactly the same for high and low beam; the projectors in the Alpharex housings are what allow more light to pass for the high beam’s to be brighter. I hope this makes sense. Thanks for the question. Let me know how it goes

[@maniirdzjr24]

@@MeAndCarKeys ok yeah I see what your talking about makes sense. I ordered the Alpharex pro g2 style. I haven’t ordered led bulbs yet, am just hoping I don’t order the wrong ones. Thanks.

[@julianigualada2268]

No I didn’t. That’s the only bulb I haven’t switched because I wasn’t sure if it would interfere with the switchback on the housing.

Hey you did a great job, hey I have a question one of the lights wasn't working when you try the lights on.

Can you let me know what you did to fix that, if you don't mind. Thanks

Thanks a lot!! One of the bulbs was plugged in backwards. I flipped the plug on the bulb and it worked just fine. Unfortunately had to uninstall the entire housing to get to the bulbs. Thanks for watching and I hope this helps!

[@aescobar11826]

Hey thank you for answering my question , hey I'm having a problem with the low beam lights, they don't stay on, for some reason, they come on for a second and they go off, but sometimes they come on and they stay on, but one i turn off the truck they go back to not work again, why do you think tvatis?

Any issues tapping your Grille into your lights? Been reading a lot of forums that it may interfere with the light as far as function. I installed and had an issue unplugged grille lights and no issue. Thanks.

[@MeAndCarKeys]

I haven’t had any issues with the grill lights. I tapped into the park/marker lights in the front. The Alpharex uses the same park as the stock, so it shouldn’t interfere. Where did you tap your grill lights?

@@MeAndCarKeys I did the same. But my AlphaRex came with a new park light so did not have to swap. Maybe I should try to keep the old one. I appreciate the response and found your site about a week ago. I appreciate the input and videos.

@@DemonAngelTag no problem bro! Ok, gotcha. Maybe you got the upgraded Alpharex headlights? My only issue is that for some reason, my grill lights only come on with the headlights at nighttime which is strange because the park lights are always on. So I may run them to a fuse instead so that they’re on all the time when the truck is on. Awesome bro, I appreciate you watching and the support!!
