dont keep me waiting, if you could, how about a pic against a wall from about 20 ft away?

 

So you have low and high beams?

 

Here is the FAQ page for those kits.

Here is one Q&A
(5) Are these HID light systems street legal?

NO XENON HID conversion kit available from any source is DOT approved if installed outside of the factory. Moreover, in the U.S, this is not street legal for use on public roads. As a result, we officially endorse the kit for exhibition and off-road use and will only sell the kit to be used for these purposes. We are not responsible for buyers who violate the terms of sale while in which they will assume all responsibilities for any unauthorized or unintended use other than exhibition or off-road use.

 

I ordered my set this afternoon. Hopefully they have the same great results as you! Should get them in 2 or 3 days and will let you know.

 

Okay, before I take some more pics...what is the height requirement for the lights? I lowered the beam and now they look too low...its definately not blinding anyone anymore. If I knew how to adjust it in the first place I would have. I didnt realize it was so easy to access and do, no one ever repsonded to it when I asked. Just turned this bolt looking thing and noticed the beam started to raise and lower depending which way I turned it.

 

It's in the owner's manual. Page 44 in the online manual. (not sure if those pages correspond to the book)

Looks like at 25 feet, the center of your beam (on a wall) needs to be the same height as the ground to center of headlamp assembly. Center of headlamp assembly is indicated by a 3mm circle on the lens.

 

See what happens when people like me dont like to read. Wastes time and other peoples energy responding...

 

I would love to do this mod, but my only problem with it is no high beams. That would drive me insane just knowing it wasn't there to be used.

 

If you can somehow retro fit the correct one in there, there is a bi-xenon kit available...and its almost twice the price.

A good easy non-technical method is to place the truck on a road where there are cars parked on the side while you are in the lane closest to the parked cars. Aim the headlights so the main beam does NOT breach the lower window edge, so its just below the rear view mirrors. Then once thats done, drive behind other cars and make sure its not going above the trunk line, into their vehicle or into their mirrors espicially the rear view.

 

Is it me, or are Silverstars still not even close to a white light???? I just installed mine and turned it on with my HID's and thinking it would be close to white in color, they still looked yellowish (almost stock). No doubt, they did get brighter...but I thought they would be HID'ish when emitting the light. Oh well...at least theyre brighter.

 

The only way you're going to get an HID "look" is to get those cheap blue tinted bulbs. Bling bling but you're actually going to lose effective brightness.

 

Yellow sucks compared to hid.

 

^^^^ Thats how mine look...lol. I parked with both lights on and walked some distance away...its not too bad...the fogs are definately brighter for sure compared to stock. I dont mind it...who knows, HID in the fogs? LOL - is that overkill? Muhahahhaa

 

It would be overkill because if youre in an area with foul weather, HID auxillary lights will prove to be worse. Halogen aux lights are best in fog rain and snow compared to HID. This is why OEM manufacturers do not supply HID aux lights and stick with halogens.
If youre doing it simply for show and driving in good conditions, it will increase light on the ground.
