One question of note, is there any "adjusting" of the fogs available? Right to left or up and down?
Nice! I don't know about left and right adjustments, but when I was under there I noticed a threaded adjuster for vertical adjustments. I didn't have to adjust anything on mine; the new LED bulbs retained the same beam pattern.

Good news!

The 4300K and 5000K models have just arrived!

They should be available on the site here shortly!

Holy Crap! Not sure how but I ordered the H10 bulbs instead of the H11s.

Well this sucks.

Got mine and love them 5k are perfect, now need HID headlights. They are a tad loose in the housing, not sure if the gasket was smaller than what was pictured here, but they butt up against the radiator support and that keeps them tight. Very high quality product, I have four Cree powered lights(Armytek, Sunwayman, Eagletac, Maratac) and none have failed, hoping for the same longevity, keep up the great work!

Thank you (these are geninue Cree XML-2 LEDs, not knockoffs) so they will have a very long life.

Also, it sometimes helps with fitment if you remove the red-rubber gasket

Completely understandable given how many different Mustangs there are. (V6, GT, GT/CS, GT500 etc...)

The GT's all use H10 FWIW

Please give us a call and we will assist you with a warranty exchange: (314) 205-3033

These lights are bright indeed. Got the 6000k XML2 for my 13GT mustang. Fitment is kind of loose, however I added the original seal to the new one. Though one side of the LED burnt out after one week of usage, Diode is shipping a replacement as we speak. Good customer service indeed. I think I just got one lemon LED. Time will tell. Oh and I am mostly on GTAMC and TorontoMustangClub in Canada eh.

I'm glad you are impressed with the output, but I'm sorry to hear about the damaged LED. The XML2s are very reliable, perhaps it was damaged in shipping .

We will have that replacement to you quickly

For those of you wondering, we also released a yellow version of the XML2. Here's an example on a 2003 Terminator that we recently had in the studio:

When will you have the 5000k XML2 models in stock for 2005-2012 GT fogs? I'm interested in a set for my 2012 with factory HIDs. The yellow colored factory fogs really look terrible next to the white HIDs. Would love to have them match the headlights.

We are expecting a new shipment of H10 XML2 Pure White (5000K) to arrive around the middle of this month.

They are a perfect match with the factory DRL's on the 2013-2014 Models

Not sure if my 2013 GT is cursed or not....last time it was my right side had 1 burnt out LED which got replaced by Diode. Now after few months...it's the left side, I didn't take out the bulb yet but you can definitely tell one side led is burnt out as it is darker vs the right side.

I'm sorry to hear that, it's extremely unusual for them to have that issue, but they are covered under warranty.

Please give us a call at your earliest convenience, and we will get you a replacement: (314) 205-3033

Thanks Nick! I spoke with Justin and he is sending out an replacement one. I'll send back the original one once I receive the replacement so I can use that box.

Thanks again for the quick response!
