Default 2001 F150 crew cab h-lights and t-lights

I just bought an 01 F150 and the headlights and tail lights are a all fogged up and hazy, looking to get some new ones.
What do you guys suggest? Looking for maybe some smoked tail lights perhaps?

Thanks

2 piece lightning or Harley lights from amazon. $75-100.

Tail lights I'd just go to a junk yard.

Retro'ed versions look great.

I have the stock screw tails with two light coats of vht night shades. I like it a lot. Like a darker cherry red. Not blacked out by any means.

Well I ordered the Depo fogs, and Harley headlights last night off Amazon.
I found some nicer looking tail lights on 1A Auto for a pretty decent price, my truck has the clear lense tail lights. Not only do I dislike that look, but they are all hazed up.

What kind of HID or headlight and fog light kits does everyone recommend for these trucks? I think I just had Silvania's in my old 99, I had DDM HID kits in my 06 F350 and I liked those.

Retrofits. Puts a proper HID projector in there, and it looks amazing. You'll see so much better also.

Sylvania XtraVision are some of the best halogen bulbs out there, but many like the silverstars.
Do not to PnP HID's, all your doing is blinding other drivers and getting less usable light that even the cheapest halogen bulbs.

Either that, or Philips Xtreme Vision bulbs. GE Nighthawks are also a great choice.

I just ordered my projector retrofits while they were on sale.


I will be ordering the Depo fogs the lightning style black headlights in the next couple of weeks. I will retrofit the headlights and then get some HID's.
