You would have to get the Denali projectors and then find an HID kit complete with ballasts and bulbs with the 9005 fitment and just hook them up. There are plenty of online HID stores to buy from. Just do a little research and look for deals. My suggestion is to deal only with Phillips or Sylvania brands.

A company used to make an excellent quality HID kit for the Silverado's called the Xenarcs or something like that. My sister has them on her truck and cost her about $500, but they are amazing. They came with the HID bulbs, ballasts, wiring and even the reflector-style headlamp housing because anyone that knows about HID knows that the housing is equally as important as having the bulbs. I cannot stress this enough.
If you buy just the bulbs and ballasts and put them in your stock headlamp housings which are meant for halogen bulbs, it will look like crap and probably blind oncoming traffic with the glare.

Go there man. A kit will do nothing but blind people coming at you as there is no cut off on them. To do it properly you would want to do a retrofit. I have a set of Denali HEadlights im about to do a retrofit in. Retro fitting is putting OEM projectors and all into your headlights.
You can find out as much as you want to from that site.

The Fed law says if not manufacturer installed it is illegal. And for the reason of to many kids put the wrong bulb in the wrong socket. Also there is a difference between Xenon bulbs and true HID systems. BIG difference. eBay has a lot of junk in the projector lamp section, and a few quality versions to. Most junk projectors do not reflect the light in the projector properly and you will wish you had lights to turn on at night!!!
