I think I like these better. But they aren't HID.

I dont really like the top ones that much, I think they would look great on a darker colored dakota but not so well on a lighter color. The bottom ones are pretty sweet too

Blown has projector headlights, Ive never asked him how they perform though. Personally, I would get Nightrunner headlights and do quality HID kits on them. The quality on some of those ebay products isnt always up to par.

most halo's are just an extra ring lamp around the housing, you could probably just not plug them in; i added them to my MS3 headlights; and they are a separate connector. I'd be curious to see some HID installs - they really help on dark roads.

I like the nightrunner headlights...but lots of people have them now. I kinda want my own thing. I'll prolly end up buying the bottom one and having you all suggest a quality HID kit for me.

Contact Sullysdetailing. They are a little more expensive than HIDextra, but he includes relays for the lights and they come with a lifetime warranty. I plan on ordering myself a set from him soon, Im trying to get my fastman throttle body to work right now so thats eating up some time and money.

It keeps giving me a high idle after the engine warms up. I had another ported/polished tb and it was doing the same thing, so I decided to buy a quality tb from the fastman, and it does the same thing so its something with the truck. Ive already put new sensors in the throttle body and that didnt do anything. Ive been trying to get $180 out of it but no one has bit on the price, so now Im trying to get it to work so it doesnt just sit as a paper weight. I will win!
