If you have theses, or know anything about them, what is your opinion about them? Also, what is your opinion on projector headlights? Are they any good?

I've had these for about a year now and they are pretty decent headlights. I do warn you that the LEDs and the halo around the lights is nowhere near that bright. The stock low beams are mediocre but the highs are amazing. I wish I got the clear lightning style headlights. But all around they're not too bad. Also they do look very nice on the truck

Biggest waste of money I've ever made. Those are complete trash. Get some lightning or Harley headlights

I've read online that these are total crap, and that they are only any good if you get projector replacements and upgrade them. IMO just do lightning or harley lights

Lighting lights even look better in my opinion

They suck, fit bad, look bad, perform bad. Best way to do a projector on these trucks is to Retrofit them in lightning or Harley housings. If that isn't in the budget, just run lightning or Harley heads by themself.

I've had these (in black) on my truck for about 2 years now. 1) projectors do NOT throw as much light as a stock version (stock, Lightning, Harley, etc). BrowingSCrew is right...these one-piece models do NOT sit flush - regardless of how you adjust them. Might even mean cutting into the header panel to widen the hole. 2) as icing on the cake, one LED per side is now out. I paid $165 for the pair. They WERE better than the yellowed stock assemblies. However, there are much better options, and of higher quality. When my projectors go, a Lightning-style replacement is my preference.

I took apart my lightning housings and mounted a set of Morimoto MH1 projectors in them. They completely murder the 1 piece aftermarket ones on output.
