I bought some 6000k hids and put them in stock housing for now and wasnt to impressed so now i need to buy new housings but i dont know much about them and there seems to be too many options.. How do i know which to get.. i dont really care about looks as much as performance.. i just want some headlights too see at night!! so would these work?

Im leaning towards that unless i can find something cheaper or better..

The black would be cool.. is there any "lighting" effect from the different colors and chrome and all that or is it just for looks and to match color of your truck etc... redin through your thread now..

WOW! I hope mine have that much light. They look very simmilar to the ones I got.

What wattage HID lights are you running in thoes projectors?

Are you running HIDs in the high beam position also? What wattage?

How long have you been running the HIDs?

Have you examined the housing for dammage from the HIDs?

What specific HID kit did you use?

Thanks,

Dan
 






anyone have any experience with hid bulbs fitting in these housings? or any hid housings for that matter? i have been reading that most aftermarket bulbs don't fit in projector housings
 






I will soon, maybe by next weekend. I'll post over in my thread when I do.
