Maximum Performance Lighting for the 2021–2023 F-150
Factory headlights often fall short when it comes to beam width, intensity, and overall nighttime visibility. The Elite Series LED Headlights solve that problem with dual rectangular Bi-LED projectors, delivering nearly double the peak intensity of premium factory projector headlights.
The beam pattern features:
-
Sharp cutoff for glare control
-
Strong center intensity for distance visibility
-
Excellent width to illuminate shoulders and roadside hazards
These headlights dramatically improve real-world nighttime driving performance.
Selectable Blade Daytime Running Lights
Elite Series headlights feature a premium blade-style DRL optic that can be configured directly from inside the vehicle.
Selectable options include:
-
White DRL
-
Amber DRL
-
Enable or disable the horizontal bar
Programming uses existing vehicle controls — no external switches or controllers required.
Premium Welcome Sequence
Every time you unlock your truck, the Elite Series headlights perform a smooth startup animation before reaching full brightness.
When paired with Diode Dynamics Elite Series Fog Lights, the headlights can perform a coordinated startup sequence across both lighting systems.
The welcome sequence can also be disabled through programming if desired.
Sequential Turn Signals
When signaling, the horizontal DRL bar performs a sequential animation, while the perimeter blade flashes.
Selectable options include:
-
Sequential mode
-
Static blinking mode
After the turn signal completes, the DRL automatically returns to the selected color.
