hahahahaha about $600 total, the headlights were like $300 because of shipping and all that. the HIDs i got were about $250, my friend got them for me, he said the HIDs retailed at $400 but he has connections, but i do question whether or not he overcharges me
i know i spent alot, but i can pretty much brag that i own the only pickup truck in Orange County with projector HIDs, think about it, some pickups have HIDs but none with projectors. The closest thing to a truck with projector HIDs is an '08 escalade, and my bulbs are brighter and my lights have angeleyes, PWNED!!!!! lol

o ya, and thanks for the help with the pics Ty
hey wpsr, the projectors were talking about ITT have a cutoff, so they dont blind oncoming traffic, so my HIDs (no matter how bright they are) only reach like 40 feet.
im thinking about just taking a drill to the cutoff and grinding it down but then it could be too bright and it will ruin the perfect lines the cutoff have, and it would be a major pain in the *** to fix that, so its tempting but at this point in time i dont think i want to to mess with my cutoff

If I remember what causes the cut off is a small metal flap looking thing. But you should also be able to adjust the headlights to shoot higher. Its still better than taking out the cutoff, which will cause people to be flash you constantly. Also, you technically could get a ticket for that. But I am in texas, and we most of our cops are asses. But ya, I will be adding these to my truck as soon as extra money comes avail.

ya, the chance of getting a ticket is what has stopped me from removing the cutoff, because if i get pulled over, they'll start giving tickets for my tint and after market HIDs. im not quite sure how to adjust it, but i think im gonna try to on friday cause i have the day off, and im gonna replace the hi-beam bulbs and im also gonna put another layer of tint on my taillights, so ill just put that on my to-do list.

Thanks WPSR.
The factory lights that come on F150's is a H13 or 9008's. At least they are on the 04's. When looking for lights tho you will probably wanna opt for the more expensive option and go for the Bi-xenon lighs. Meaning High beams and Low beams.
WPSR did you buy the 6K or the 8K. I dont want a blue light but I want a hint of blue. Im thinking about going with the 6K
Anyone know what our foglights are?? Meaning size of light bulb

I purchased the 8k. They were a little blue, but not too bad. Here in texas they just passed a law about a year ago, were a cop can give you a ticket for having too blue a light. Yah stupid isn't it. But the 8k's are safe. I just replaced my lights in my 02, and they were 9007's. So I guess ford changed the bulb's. But I would also go with the dual beam's, they make more since. But be careful, because both of those beam's being on can cause some serious blindness to other drivers. But thats my 2 cents.
