Rough Country DRL Halo LED Headlights

[Andrew Espo]

Looking into headlight upgrades and came across the Rough Country headlights. My question is has anyone installed them and what are your experiences or issues with them?

Hey. I just installed them today. Easy to install. But it looks like they are going to be a pain to adjust them after install.

 

[waltBronco]

Actually a 10mm wrench fits on the adjuster bolt through the side and wasn’t to bad. Or you can use a small screwdriver to move the adjuster.

Yes they are so much brighter. Haven’t been flashed yet on the highway so I guess I even adjusted them properly.

Awesome. Do they work with your lights in the auto position and what about the drls do they come on during the day?

Yes all plug and play. The side lights are larger and brighter than factory. Compared them to my wife’s stock ones.

I should really do a start up video.

What i mean is mine didnt come with the signature headlights and dont have the drl ring around the head light so I was just wondering how the drl ring around the head light works. Sorry and thanks

Just installed these on my kid's '24 Big Bend a couple weeks ago. DRL rings come on when in drive like they should. Prior to these, the drl for cheap Ford headlights was the low beam bulb. With the aftermarket, the drl becomes the ring.

I am curious how @waltBronco got a 10mm socket on the adjuster though. Maybe I didn't look close enough at it from the sides, but I ended up using a screw driver from the top to adjust the headlights. I definitely prefer Morimoto's setup for adjusting height.

I had to use a screwdriver as well. Not a good set up for that. I even called RC and they had zero answers. So I suggested that to them.

Any luck on that video?

Yup sorry was headed to the place that made it able for me to buy this toy and the accessories. Lol.
So the first lights you will see is unlock then rear door opening then front door then finally start up.
I had put my phone on the spare of my wife’s Bronco so it’s not the clearest.

I had a set installed for 2 days. Each time I drove the Bronco the inside of the headlight lenses fogged up at least half way. I returned them......which was too bad because I really liked the additional light output.
