I bought my heads and tails on ebay. Heads are simple, just black reflectors inside. Tails are LED, plenty bright. I like the way they look on my grey truck, but a warning if your truck is black or want it completely blacked out, go for a different set. But i havent had any issues with mine. third break light is ebay as well, just make sure you read the description and find a plug and play led one, not one that needs splicing. I think mine was like 45 bucks or something

sorry dont have a better pic of the heads
Im liking the hid kit halos from pro tune for a basic hid kit?
Help me i just want bright smoked /black replacements
Sorry but those are all 110% junk - as almost all of these chinglish knockoff are - and you cannot run HID's in them. They were designed for halogens only.
It's not difficult to bake the heads, tails and 3rd brake light assemblies apart, paint them black an reseal.

The one i posted from pro comes with hids
I cant get a retro kit for 250ish. (Thats the cost of 2x from pro with 8k hids installed
I have a chevy 2500HD with HID and a f150 with LED, I prefer the LED, HID have to warm up, if you have to flick to bright its like turning your lights off until they warm up, but once they are on fully they are bright and look nice, just don't like the warm up time. I prefer the LED lights on my F150

What HID in ye Chebbie?
OEM HID ballasts ( coupled to OEM HID capsules ) offer near-instant warmups ( Denso, Matsusheeta, Mitsubishi, etc). The aftermarket cheap chinglish junk does not.
And if it's done properly with bi-xenon projectors, the highbeams are always instant because the bulb is already on and yer simply actuating cutoff shields to expose the full output.

Like everyone has said and will say unless you're running these lights and think they're cool is they are a waist of money. Buy the led tails and third brake light but just crack your heads open and paint the inside because those eBay projectors with halos not only look cheap they perform horribly. Save up your money and buy the retrofit parts and do it yourself. Also buy the black housing tail lights the chrome ones with smoke lens are ugly IMHO.

Head light, tail light, and 3rd brake light debate.
