Sure here's the link http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...id=18112071952
They fit good, look good, and put out a good amount of light. In my mind they are hands down better than any projector you can buy because they dont fog and there's no LEDs to burn out.

Checked the paint job on my Throttle body cover out today and it's holding up great. I was worried about heat issues but it's holding up fine after being on a month or so.

Do you have a close up picture of the headlights while they are turned on? I just got mine in the mail today. Going to try to put them in tonight after work if it's not raining ( damn Ohio weather). do you just use the factory bulb for the corners? I was just wondering if they will be a normal light showing through or if I'm supposed to get something to make them tinted marker lights. I've never had aftermarket head lights before, so sorry if my questions are a little dumb.
I am curious because I have the HID headlight bulbs and if the corners are going to be just a normal bulb color then I'll har to change it because I'd like it to match my HID's.

Very nice truck by the way. I know what your going through with being younger and fixing up your truck, I just turned 20 and got a loan for this truck now. My dodge Dakota I had before, I had since I was 16 and I lifted it, put a roll bar in it with 4 lights on top, safari bar with 2 lights up front. Mud tires, worked my *** off to pay for it all. Lol

Thanks, and I used the factory bulbs, mine already had the orange tint on them so I didn't have to change them out. they light up the reflector orange so they aren't like a white light. The HIDs should fit perfectly too since this is basically a stock light. And I'll have to go grab a pic.

Was it a pain in the *** to set the adjustment on the headlights?

Nope, I was lucky, they were dead on when I got them in. Just pull up to a wall or garage door and tape where your beams are to begin then use that to line it up afterwards. Mine were dead on when I put them in though. If you end up having to adjust them it shouldn't be a big deal though just move the screws till its where you want it.

Here they are. I need to adjust them a little more. They were shining Ito the ground a little too much when I tested them last night while driving.




They looking really good with the HID's on at night.

I bet, those look really good on a dark truck.
