Default Ordered new headlights for the Sierra.

I have a crack in my drivers side headlight and need to replace the ugly stock ones anyway.

There was no way I was going to spend $400+ for Denali lights so these look pretty good and are pretty cheap. I'm happy with my TYC Chevy lights so I'm gonna give em a try. If they don't work well I'll report back and then sell em to some customer that isn't as picky as I am. LOL

After my experience with headlights/ corner lenses, I now put a thin strip of silicone around the outer pieces where the headlight comes together. That seems to have worked well in preventing leaks and condensation.
Those are nice looking

Yup, my HIDs will be here in a couple weeks and I am hoping my truck will done by then so I can install these things. Hopefully the bulbs fit. If not I'm gonna be doing so ghetto riggin.

I'll be sure to get before and after pics for everyone. Right now I just have PIAA Xtreme Whites in the stock housings. They are pretty damned bright with the high beam mod but I think these will be nicer.
