Those look sweet, but my truck has basically all chrome trim so I'm trying to avoid black/smoked accessories. However, appreciate the post!

I currently have those taillights, brand new headlight assemblies, and 4200k bulbs. Are you running any kind of special bulb?

These are just with the parking lights on, They are HID projectors with 6k bulbs so they are white light but yet have the slightest blue around the edge of the beam. I have issues with oncoming night traffic blinding me in low light situations (2-lane highways, etc.) and these produce enough light that I don't have to squint or turn away anymore when I meet a car at night in the country. Also had them for over a year and have never had to turn my bright/high beams on and tend to do a lot of night driving through the country, they also light deer up much better than standard halogen bulbs.

Those look good. How much did they run you?

Got these from Speed Daddy on eBay. I think they we're like $70. I will say after only one year they are showing signs of yellow but what do you expect for $70 for the whole assembly. I bought some headlight polish to clean em up this spring. This was brand new below. They aren't bad now but are a little hasy and not crystal clear anymore





Here they are from like a week ago
