Well to be honest I really want retrofitted headlights. I have the projector style housings now but am going to be trading them plus cash for the non projector style headlights.

Which of these two would you prefer in the trade...also I'm not going to spend $300 plus my heads to get yours. Especially when it would cost close to $300 to retro fit the 05-06 styles which imo would look way better anyways.

You have the 08+ headlights? If so I'll do $175 plus those we cover shipping for our headlights.

Gonna see what goes on with the other guy with the 08's first. It would be more money on top of the 05's I have to figure out a way to make sure I don't get screwed on a set of head lights. You know what I mean? I'd be out headlights for a while if I sent them out first but I might be able to do that.

I have these very same headlights with HIDs in the low beams. People flash me all the time because they're so bright. Either that, or they see a different color headlight coming at them, and they THINK it's brighter. Either way, they are very nice headlights. I put yellow LEDs in the lower 8 sockets.

I was also interested in changing over the halos to yellow but I couldn't see how they came apart without unlguing the housing. Then again, I didn't spend a whole lot of time on it.

I also had purchased an HID kit for the high beams, but the housing specifically says not to install HIDs in the high beams. As a side note, they are H5's for highbeams, not the stock 9005 (or 9006 whatever it was).

Free bump for you!

PS: If you know how to install HIDs in the highbeams, and/or changing the HALOs, please let me know!

you would need to desolder the stock leds on the Halo circuit board and then solder new ones on, just like your gauge cluster, and i dont remember the bulb size for the highs i think they are H1 tho, i wouldnt do HIDs for them.
