The 2015 Ford F-150, a revolutionary model for its use of an aluminum body, offered a variety of lighting configurations across its many trim levels. Understanding these differences is crucial when selecting replacement bulbs or considering upgrades.
OEM Halogen vs. LED Differences
Many 2015 F-150 models came standard with traditional halogen lighting for most functions, including low beams (H11) and high beams (9005). However, higher trim levels such as the Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited often featured factory LED headlights for their low and high beams, as well as integrated LED daytime running lights (DRLs).

Always check your specific trim level and existing bulb type to ensure you purchase the correct replacement.
