The ford transit headlight that came in today had 6x the padding
Pros: had 6x the padding

My Limited 2019 WRX has the tracking headlights. It’s actually really helpful (and you realize how helpful they are when you go drive someone else’s car that doesn’t have them).
Pros: really helpful
Vehicle:
Subaru
I don't know how ford managed to do it at this price point but these headlights are astonishingly good. I took a maverick out for a test drive at night and with the low beams, I was lighting up 3 lanes of traffic. My wife has a gle 350 with the high performance headlights and I can confidently say the headlights in this truck are comparable with the benz. The led reflectors throw the light quite far and the low beams are nice and bright as well.
Pros: astonishingly good, nice and bright
Vehicle:
Ford Maverick
I went from a base to a limited. Honestly, the headlights are worth it.
Pros: headlights are worth it
Vehicle:
Subaru
So, I opened my headlights on my 17. It is like others have said a painful process. Main reason is because the factory glue sealing the headlights is very difficult to melt, I had to bake my lights for quite a while to get it to loosen up. And even then the factory glue is basically impossible to get all the way off. Putting it back together isn\u2019t bad, I know some people have condensation issues but I\u2019ve never had any issues with that, plus from the factory there are already drain holes/air holes in the housing anyways.
Pros: drain holes from factory
Cons: painful process, difficult glue
Vehicle:
Ford
My final complaint is the very visible outline of the cameras in the headlights. This was hyped to me as another safety feature — that the headlights turn ahead of the car as you turn. I barely notice this. But I notice the weird camera shadow outlines every time I drive at night. All
of this is extremely distracting and dangerous.
Cons: distracting, dangerous
I constantly get flashed by oncoming cars in my Ranger and it's not high beams. It fucking sucks. I asked at the service and they said nah standard angling.
Cons: fucking sucks
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
I have a 2024 Outback Onyx. The headlights are super bright and I'm always getting flashed as though I have my high beams on when I don't.
Pros: super bright
Cons: getting flashed
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I had a FiST '14 in the past and the headlights were like two candles. I am in Europe, so I had Euro headlights. I've tried both reflector and projector headlights, without big difference. I've also replaced the bulbs with different options that helped but too less. Unfortunately the headlights on the Fiestas are really bad comparing with other vehicles.
Cons: poor light output, really bad
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
I have an 09 Forrester and its nearly impossible to drive at night due to the headlights. Foggy, not bright and direction is off.
Cons: foggy, not bright, direction off
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
