It's going to be a few hundred dollars. I got a real nice deal on a set of Morimoto's, but for those, new headlights, and the service was just under $500. These are soon to be mine. (It's not a 2004-2008, I know. Just bear with me.)

My only worry with them though is they're BRIGHT! They work awesome on the highway and such but I'm very very very sure other drivers do not like me for them. I think some other guys on here will say to do the retrofit kit if you can. I might even through my regular halogens back in for just everyday around town driving.
I am having the same issue with my HIDs flickering and not coming on after starting my truck. I was wondering if I could get some more information on the relay you put in and how you wired it... Any info would be greatly appreciated!
