Yes or no what? Yes, it is possible. Yes, that would be the best for lighting. Yes, it would be the most expensive route.

Yes HID is worth it if you have the money for it, I used some 100 watt bulbs & have been very happy with the improvement over the stock 65 watt bulbs.

If you want the brightest 4300k is the way to go. If I didn't get those 6000k would probably be my next choice. I think 8000k will look good but vision wise you would be better off with one of the others. I've thought about going with HID's but just haven't done it. To do it right you really need to do a retrofit which equals $ unless you have the skill to do it yourself. Plus to keep your high beams you need to get a bi xenon kit for these trucks which is also expensive.

But sooo worth it. I had a set in GAGT than i transfered to my Ram. Mine are 8000k, and I will be getting a set of 6000k bulbs for when these go out.

The lighting difference is amazing, and very much worth it.

Do it. You won't go back to halogens.
