Hey guys i just got me a set of projectors. Actually they are just like yours Celly but the black casing. I'm having an EXTREME hard time getting the drivers lower turn signal bulb to lock into the casing. Also, What is a good halogen bulb to use than the one that it came with? Apparently my Silverstar Ultra will not fit into these new projects. All this wiring is burning my brain too.

Everything is plug and play, your LED's can be wired to whatever you want. Most of us wired them to the parking lights. Which would be one of the wires coming from the plug for the 194.

My friend helped me out and we got everything taken care of. I took the stock halogens out and put H1 Silverstar bulbs in their place. These things look Amazing. I , like many others wasn't sure if it was gonna look too ricey but it makes the truck look alot younger and catches it up with the 2011's out there. It suck that I broke the lower tab of my grille off though in the proces 
. I'll get that taken care of in time.

It is worth it at the moment otherwise the grille will be loose in the front and budge out. I'm currently looking for a new one though. And I used JB weld which helped quite a bit compared to the glue.

I got a set of the cheaper halos (not the ccfl ones) for my gf for her birthday.
I found them to be a pita to install and get aimed correctly, I also found the fit to be of really poor quality.
As previously mentioned, the driver's side indicator bulb doesn't fit properly and the wiring is a jungle. I would have expected them to fit better considering they cost me $250 including postage...
just my .02c
