I have the Alpharex Luxx headlights on my 4Runner for almost two years now and I do not recommend them (waste of money). They really look cool, but they are safety hazard in my opinion. I am about to switch back to stock headlights with halogen light bulbs for safety reasons. Over time they are getting dimmer and during rainy conditions they don't light up the the road properly. I am unable to see the road in front of me in rain. My factory fog lights are brighter than them and shine farther. This is a big problem if you drive on dark and winding roads during rain. Also, my eyes go blind momentarily when upcoming traffic approaches due to the fact that my headlights are dim. The same effect was noted by my passengers recently. In my option the Pro models are a better option as you have the capability to replace light bulbs.

Thanks for sharing. Going to have to look into more long-term reviews before deciding. Have you contacted them about addressing this issue under warranty? Is it the LEDs themselves or has the housing gotten hazy?

@@nelsoncarpentry I still haven’t contacted alpharex yet. The housing is fine and as clear as the first day. The issue is the light output. It seems the LEDs are losing their output density overtime. They are simply not bright. I have had the same setup and my fog lights are now much brighter. In the beginning there wasn’t such apparent difference.

For F150 15-17 Pro Series you get the start up sequence and the switchback. Yes they come with H7 bulbs which you can chane to LEDs which is legal as long as your bulbs aren't ridiculously bright and are adjusted correctly. So for the little 4 runner they might be like this, but not for 15-17 F150s.

Sadly switching your H7 bulb out for an LED bulb in this housing is not Legal for road use, the LED bulb is not DOT-compliant for street use whereas the stock halogen bulb they come with is DOT-compliant!

@@HeadlightRevolution that’s not correct. So long as your LED lights are 1:1 (light source is same size as halogen bulb) the beam pattern will be the same as the halogen. It would be next to impossible for a LEO to prove your DOT approved housings and led bulbs are not DOT approved.

I am finding wherever I can to report how terrible Alpha rex products are and their customer service. I had a set purchased for a toyota. Impossible to level them from the install and they did not want to help. Always the customers fault. I then had an issue that everyone kept flashing me and I later discovered the lights were constantly changing brightness on their own. shortly after that, the filled up with so much condensation that it looked like someone poured water into them. The units are not even a year old. I have been trying to work with Alpha Rex for months now and they keep telling me they are looking into it if I can ever get them to respond. Makes it impossible to drive your vehicle when the lights don’t work and there is no concern from the company to address. Absolutely horrible customer service.
