A dude down the block from me has these on this Red Mega, I think they look like complete crap at night, kinda cool in the day time. I'd get regular HID's personally.

HIDs + reflector headlamp = crap, I don't care how you try to justify it. High intensity needs the sharp cutoff of a projector beam or all that intensity is directed at oncoming traffic.

Cram a HID in our stock housing and you'll see great -- at the expense of everyone else driving near you.

Oh, and so I'm not called a HID hater, I converted my car and it works great. It also has projector low beams with a great factory cutoff.

Get HID's for your fogs and it will help you see way better then stock and its not as bad on the other drivers.

Aint that the truth.

Also, let me tell you those halos are weak as our economy. Once you turn all the lights on, the halos can barely be seen. Dont expect them to shine like the bmws, cause they wont. I know two people that have them on an Integra and a F-150. Very weak. Also, the F-150 regular bulbs on projectors dont light up that well, I dont know why, cause ma' wifes camry uses projectors with regular bulbs and lights up well.
I know a member here has them, which dont look bad. Use the search button, you'll see his pictures.

I was thinking about getting some different headlights as well. I want to make my truck look different from the others, I found these headlights on a website www.migicar.com, they are black angel eye projector headlamps, thought it might look good on my Ram. Any suggestions?

Check Ebay thaey have all of those and usually a little cheaper. I had the black halos on my old truck and loved them. I put HID's in them.
