Ehh I like the more traditional look for headlights on these guys, besides do you know how good of quality they are? I got some offloading lights I attached to my bumper and they give me a ton of light for only $40 for the set of two at harbor freight

I'm sure everyone has their own opinion on this but I think it looks to "new" for our trucks. I was thinking about getting these but smoked or do the 3 piece smoked lights and I've decided on the 3 piece.

Stay away from 10k, Promise it'll only 'look' cool but they light about is horrible. 8k AT most, best to stay between 4.5k-6k. 10k leans words a vivid blue, near purple look.

I say the heck with the look, HID's are VERY worth it. It doesn't matter how many offroad lights you put on (aside from can't leave them on around other vehicles), the light output is exponentially better with HID. Especially in proper projectors vs the plug and play kits.

If I had the money and the know how of converting from halogen to HID's, I would. I like the look and style of those lights

It's as simple as plugging in some wires. The kits come with every. I installed mine in an hour, and 45 minutes was making heads and tails of where each wires came from, and where to mount the ballasts
