They cost about 150, it was a total of 300 after I got the HID's in. Even without the HID's they still look awesome.

I got them off ebay, but I got the HID's at a local seller where I live. I think that they even went down in price too, might be cheaper, haven't checked in a while.

Sick..man that's cool. I looked into HID's here too at a truck accessory place but they are more than I can spend. Like $400 just for the HID kit. I went with SilverStar Ultra's and a good set of Pilot driving lights.

Yours is pretty slick though.

Yeah around where I live there are the same price. But I found a local seller which had Bosch kits, 150$. I couldn't believe the price on them.

how do those ebay ones fit? i have heard some stories of them leaving gaps and not sealing right as well as tremendous amounts of wire splicing.

They fit perfectly to be honest. Only wires you have to cut are the park lights if you want to tie in the LED's and halo's, which is what I did. No leaks or anything. Perfect to be honest. Only down side is that there is only one spot for a turn signal bulb, and our trucks have 2, so you'll have to put a load resistor on them, which is about 5 bucks. Other then that there awesome. But on the side of my headlights it said that to not put in HID's, don't see why it would say that. Even if it gets close to the projector they operate at a lower temp and are only 35w compared to the regular 55w halogens.
