Now just point them up a little higher and no one will be able to see.

I think I am going to do the Denali headlights with mine.

Can you use the stock housing? And is there really an improvement in night time driving?

I mounted mine under the fan shield. I took off the fan shield and put them under the crossmember, then I used a commerial grade velcro (very strong). I zip tied all the wires, then bolted them as well. I put the fan shield back on, and you can't even tell where there at. Here's some pics before fan shield is removed, and while it's removed. I don't hink you can hide them any better.

Those look really nice, great price too. So I'm guessing that they're compatable with the stock lenses and no worries of melting?

Yes, they are compatible with the stockers. Personally, I think they would best with projector headlights, but I don't like them on a chevy. the projectors look best on a GMC, especially with the Denali projectors. I've heard in the past, that HID's will melt the projectors over time because of the heat they put out. But the HID's are better for your trucks when in stock application because they draw less power. You can buy the headlights and HID kit, but they are pretty pricey.
