Are the '08 headlights sealed or not?
Due to the fact that the truck is in the shop I can not answer my own question.
I have the '08 F250 SD FX4X4. I am wanting to change the headlight bulbs and fog light bulbs to Sylvania bulbs.
It shows that there are on of two types of headlights, "sealed beam headlamps" or "replaceable halogen capsules".
Any ideas on this?
Has anyone changed their bulbs in the headlamp or fog?
Also I am thinking of going HID.
Thanks

You're lucky I left that drop-in bedliner in there though!

Could you tell a difference in the bulbs/lights when the Sylvanias were in there?
Did you keep your toyo's? How did you like them?
I just checked out your gallery. Thanks for the pics of my truck.

Yeah, I kept the Toyo's. They were $1300, so I didn't want to spend that money twice. Two Rivers swapped the wheels and tires for me in the Quick Lane. Your truck has the brand new wheels and tires that came off my new truck. No problem with the pics...I have the high resolution pictures too if you want them.
