Smile New Headlights, need help on picking!

I'm purchasing new headlights for my truck since they are currently all fogged up from the inside, so why not go aftermarket!

Choice 1: Black Euro Headlights
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-04...d=250776031973
Choice 2: Halo LED Headlights
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-04...Q5fAccessories

Now i personally think that both look pretty good. As for the Halo LED ones, i see that there is a separate Low Beam and High Beam. Now how would that all wire up? Now for the Black Euros, they would be pretty easy to wire up and looks all plug and play.
What do you guys think about this? Which looks better? Which would be easier to install?

i got these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-04...Q5fAccessories

but i have been told several times all the aftermarket headlights should be sealed with silicone to prevent moisture on the inside

I personally am not a fan of halo lights, thats just me. They have to be on the right looking truck for me to like them.

Yea I don't like the halo set ups. They don't have nice flow, so I'd do choice 1....not that I'm not biased since I have em myself or anything...

Finally got them installed after dealing with so many headaches putting the dang things on. Would have been great of there was included instructions...
