IMO, no smoked headlights are the best. Why would you want to diminish the light output of your headlights?

I like the way some of the new trucks look with there smoked lights, not looking for blacked out ones just smoked.

Just remember, you get what you pay for. Hopefully others will chime in with their experiences, but the cheaper ones will usually end up getting water inside in short order.

What did you end up getting? I too went with the smoked look but with projectors. They increased my light output from the stock units.

I went with these, they fit pretty well and seem well made, They may stick out on the corner a touch more then stock but not much. The tint on them is not very dark and they also have both vertical and horizontal adjustment where the factory lights only vertical.
