sorry but my truck is green.. no other hid would look nice.. imo.

 

Love my h.i.ds.

 

Please dear god do not go with yellow HIDs on a green truck. There is a guy around here with them on a green 2 door Tahoe and it looks like a damn backwards assed space shuttle. Go with the 6000K kit from DDM Tuning. We just installed a 6000K kit yesterday on my ex gfs Green Z71 Tahoe. It looks perfect. They are bright white with no blue tint at all. To each his own but Im afraid you would regret the yellow ones...

 

i rather take your word for it lol.. so 6k is just white i rather do that.. thanks..

 

35 or 55w?

 

JAVI05- Thats just my opinion and you know what they say about those lol. I just honestly think that you would be happier with a true white light than that yellow color. The yellow is great for fog light because the color breaks through fog easily (hence why Lexus and alot of 24 Hours of LeMans teams use it) but Ive heard that it can be hard on your eyes after a while as your main driving light. And if your 6000K kit has a slight hint of blue to it I still think that would be better than yellow. Theres just something about true white/slightly blue headlights that makes a vehicle look very classy at nite IMO. That and when you see them coming down the road you know its not grandma in her Corolla goin to the convenience store for Pall Malls lol. It just adds that little touch that makes people stop and say "Damn thats sweet."

casey-We did the 35w kit. When they fire up they look kinda blue at first but once theyre warm its just very intense white. Now if you go with the 55w kit the extra wattage will wash out the color more. So an 8000K 55w kit that would normally have some blue to it if it were a 35w, would look more like a 6000k 35w kit, just brighter. IMO there is no need for a 55w kit unless you just absolutely have to have retardedly bright headlights. My 8000K 35w lows and fogs are plenty and I mean PLENTY bright. Im talkin Stevie Wonder could spot a gnat mounting a flys *** at 75 yards theyre so bright. The key is to aim your housings so that you arent blinding oncoming traffic. I have mine aimed so that the cutoff is at the wiper cowl of your average car (waist high basically) at 25 feet. That is about the standard for light aiming. I even raised mine just a hair because my truck is lowered 4 inches up front. The 25 feet method is what is usually used on your standard truck.

 

Thanks, i really want to get HIDs now.

 

Check out the pics I added to the first post. Thatll give you and idea of the difference. They are kinda grainy because theyre taken with my iPhone but you definetly get the idea.

 

and just as a note - you shouldn't really use HIDs in your highs because the ballasts need time to warm up & with the frequent on/off switching of the high beams, that can reduce bulb & ballast life.

not to mention (especially if you've done the 4-high mod) - with that much light, you might melt the pavement in front of you

 

Im putting HIDs in my highs because I live in a rural area (BFE) and do alot of 2 lane road and 2 lane highway driving late at night. There are times where I can run my high beams for 45 mins and never see another car. I dont flop back and forth, if I turn them on theyre staying on for a while.
