Headlights OEM FORD or Tesla
Took my first drive tonight and DANG! These are so amazing! It’s really neat to see them in action first hand.

Just finished my retrofit upgrade to Matrix headlights on my 2023 MX. It’s really neat to see them in action first hand.
Pros: amazing, neat to see
The DRL on my passenger headlight partially died (one of the vertical strips on the outside of the lamp stopped working) about a month ago. Took it to the dealer and they had a new headlight installed within the week under bumper to bumper.
Pros: headlight installed under warranty
Cons: DRL partially died
Vehicle:
Ford
For tesla folks - Older Teslas are just kinda like that with their headlights. I used to have a 2019 Model 3 and I got high-beam-notified _constantly_. They fixed it in 2021.
Pros: fixed in 2021
Cons: high-beam-notified constantly
We had the same issue on my wifes 22 explorer limited.
Dealership had it for a full day and traced the issue to a bad ground causing a power draw in one of the headlights and it was replaced under warranty.
Pros: headlight replaced under warranty
Cons: bad ground, power draw
Vehicle:
Ford Explorer
Seeing fewer Teslas on the road, with their blinding headlights, has been a relief.
Cons: blinding headlights
Tesla are the worst. Honda is next.
Pros: null
Cons: terrible designs, danger on road
I find my 24 X headlights with and without Adaptive less effective than the ones in my 22 Y. X seems to leave a giant black spot about a car and half in front.
Cons: less effective, black spot
Tesla are the fuckin worst. If I get blinded 9 times out of 20 it's some ass in a Tesla.
Cons: blinding, the worst
The light bar on the new doesn't bother me, but the placement of the headlights sucks. They look dumb at night.
Cons: headlights look dumb
