Save the money and go with the Rigid D2 Driving beam for light. Leave your head lights alone.

D2's

6000k is just the color of the bulb ha, get the Bi-Xenon if you're getting HID and both the Hi and Lo will be the same color.

Too expensive for a lifetime warranty, for 100% waterproof, for near indestructible, for the brightest light in a small package?

I use my Dually spot pattern everyday every night. I could see how they would conflict on a 2 way highway, but a convient switch is the solution.

I prefer to keep my factory headlight bulbs, not blinding people with HID's, on the highway. I would prefer to shine stock bulbs on oncoming traffic, and have a switch to turn night into day when no one is oncoming. Rather than blind people oncoming with the same light output when they pass. Just my .02

OP, do what you want man, its your truck and not ours. I do like the HID's in the 4k-6k range, but I want light where its needed, and not have it where its not.

Nice man! Good thing about that is all those LED's probably use the same amount of power as 1 headlight lol!
