Thought I was the only one that noticed that too lol.... Looks damn sharp though. I was never comfortable myself taking headlights apart so I buy them or pay someone. Tried once and ended in disaster lol
either way. beauty truck!

They do look good for sure!! Id be a little ticked off about the bezels personally but that could just be my OCD (which alot of us seem to have lol). Which is why I ask, I can see a first time retrofitter making this mistake but for the price tag of "professionally" retrofitted heads I would be expecting a bit more perfection lol. For me, I couldnt afford paying someone so I did attempt a build recently and it turned out very well (luckily). I did buy a used set of OEM heads locally though so I could take my time and not rush. I have a tendency to rush things and so this allowed me to slow it down and ensure everything was how I liked it! Either way the light out put will be unreal so thats the imporant part!!

Sorry I've been out all day. I bought the headlights from a guy who builds them for a living. When I got them in the mail the pass side headlight bezel was loose, like hanging below the projector loose. I ended up baking that one and did my best to get it on there straight and didn't realize until after I'd already sealed them back up that it wasn't exactly like the drivers side. My fault. Soon I'll bake it again and get it on there right. If anyone's interested I can pass his contact info. He wanted to fix the loose one but I'd never done that sort of thing before so wanted to attempt it myself. I paid 800 bucks for the lights. That's cheaper than I've seen themail other places. They're oem headlights with upgraded projectors and ballasts. I have D2S Osram Nightbreaker unlimited bulbs in there.

It does look great, like we've all mentioned. Not trying to bash the guy i Just was curious if he built his heads or had someone do it for him. Again, for 1000$+ these can run I'd be dissapointed with it personally. Doesn't take away from their bad-assery or from the overall looks of the truck, its just something I noticed. Some wont even see it I guess, so no worries. No attacks against anyone. Unless you're the one that built them for him ..............
