here's an update for you on the headlights. First time i drove it i had to really lower the beam as it seamed to be pointing up. could just be they were not already adjusted. This time as a dusk drive and could not really tell about the light one the road. Tho nobody beat me up with there high beams.
Second time was just this Monday very early in the morning, not pitch dark but dark when i left the house. beam seamed ok, maybe a little lighter than i would have expected, however when i got on a two lane i noticed every body else had a ton of more light flooding the road in front of there car than me.
I am going to try and lower them a bit more and see if that helps.
I would not say the are unsafe or anything like that but i do have a little issue with the beam. whew, bet you wish you hadn't asked.
However they do look amazing.

I noticed the same with mine a week or so ago when I had the car out late. I usually am not out at night to notice things, but the Raxiom bulbs they supply with the headlights are not that great. Maybe it's just me, since my 2013 Flex has hid lights and I am spoiled by them, but I think they are pretty crappy. I bought the Raxiom H13 led bulbs from American Muscle hoping that would make the light better, but the connectors on them were defective and I am shipping them back for replacements.

I don't drive much ant night either but with the seasons changing it gets dark a lot earlier.

So i really lowered the beams and man what a difference, i can only guess that from Raxiom they are totally out of adjustament.

So how would you compare them now to stock or maybe the oem HIDs?

I would say better than the stock but not as good as the HID's, my wife has a 14 and her lights are much brighter than my Raxioms. However the look is killer.
