it seems easy enough to install. it shouldnt take long then
yeah im pretty interested in those lights although i dont like the amber strip at the bottom so much.
i did send the guy an email. im hoping i can get them for $200 (i wish) lol
i think he misspelled night runner, he put it as one word (haha look at me paying attention to the details)

also keep in mind that the ebay ones are projectors with halos, and the night runners are regular housings. if you plan on doing the HID upgrade in the future the ones on ebay would be a better choice for you.

Just go with the ebay one's, you can get them for a better price. Installation is easy, they just say that professional installation is recommended so that way when someone who doesn't know what they are doing f's it up they are not responsible.

get the ebay ones. they look better to me, they're unique, they're cheaper, they're easy to install, and they're projectors.

gotta ask though, why black headlights? everything on your truck is chrome isn't it?

all i have is the grill and the rims (well besides the bumpers). i was thinking about going with a black and chrome look. you know, just leave the grill and rims chrome and have everything else blacked out. i thought it would look nice

on the subject of tinting my tails, does anyone know whether i could leave the lights on my truck and paint it then with VHT night shades. i would of course the cover the area around it. how hard is it to remove and put back on my taillights, i havent really looked. also i just paint the outside of the lens and leave the casing all together, right?
