Default Upgrades for Headlights

Hey Guys,

I just purchased a 2001 Quad Cab 4x4 and im looking to upgrade the headlights. Any recommendations? I found "halo projector" headlights on ebay, are these the super bright headlights?

the halo projectos wont do much for brightness unless you upgrade the bulb or run HID's. just note that lots of people have had fitment issues with the turnsignal and light molded as a single peice, not everyone but some.

Go hid's you wont regret it. I got mine from mydepots.com and I know 4 other poeple that have the same kit. I did recently find a kit from ddmtuning that is supposed to be pretty good it also offers a lifetime warranty!!. I got blacked out headlights off ebay. They are alright just dont pay less than a 100 for them cause those are the junky kind.

Pretty much plug and play. The only thing I had to do on mine was switch 2 wires around in the hid connector. Took me about a hr to get everything in. They are so worth it. The ddm kit im going to try on my atv lol I like the lifetime warranty thing.
