Wasn't there a thread where someone did a retrofit on these trucks? I was looking the other day and couldn't find it.

Yup, here it is
It does cost quite a bit more, but the output (and not being flashed) is worth it.
It is on my to do list.

To answer your question. Yes. I've been in my buddy's car that has them. He's had them for a couple months now and they look good and perform well. They are a cheap kit, I don't know how well the ballasts will hold up to rough off-road use, but for the price of replacement ballasts they offer, it's probably worth it. The DDM Tuning hids my bro has in his car light up the night better than my halogens. I've seen brighter HID's but they were from kits that were $600+. I'll be buying Highs, Lows and Fogs from DDM soon.

Besides the fact that putting HIDs in housings designed for halogens is illegal and blinds on coming traffic, DDMTuning is garbage. If your going to do it order retrofitsource.com kit.
I'm guilty of it, just trying to steer you to a better kit if your going to do it.

HID projectors or halogen projectior housings? And yes, they are different.
If you have those e-bay projectors all in one things those are designed for halogens, and HID bulbs in those will blind others.
My wife's car has OEM projector housings (for halogen bulbs) and I put some PnP HID's in it. While not as bad as in a regular (non projector) housing, it still had a lot of light scatter. I did not get flashed, but when she drove toward me at night, it was noticeably annoying and I would have flashed high beams at her if it was not her.
I took them out after about a month.
