I'm gonna buy em....help me decide
OK. I just spent the last three hours searching and reading. The screen is starting to get blurry now so I gotta wrap it up. I'm going to take the plunge and buy a set of new headlights to lend a more modern look to my truck. I think I have narrowed it down to these three and I would like opinions on appearance, quality, output, etc. The first ones are TYC and the other two are DEPO. Prices including shipping are going to be about $115, $170, and $180.

From what I have read, TYC and DEPO are as good as you are going to get other than OEM but I have read a few complaints. Any thoughts? 2. Concerning the DEPOs with the built-in projector.... a. is it correct that they use the stock bulb as the low beam and a different bulb installed in the projector as the high beam? b. are both lights on when on high? c. are they plug and play with the provided harness? d. am I crazy or do I remember reading something about the projectors pulling extra juice which may cause problems with the stock wiring? I know this is a bunch, so thanks to everyone in advance. |

#2 FTW
1. No idea 2. a)Yes they use 2 different bulbs. b)Yes they are both on c)Yes I believe they are. If they are not its not that hard to build a harness. d) No they don't draw any more power. It might when your highs are on becuase you're powering 2 different bulbs. |
i like all of them. #3 sticks out to me, cuz it is a mix between HD/L lights but also has the projector. but to each his own. which ever one u like.
|
number two if you want hids. i dont care for number one to much. three looks good but if you want the high/low hids then the projector is just there being useless.
|
Thanks for the replies so far everyone. I haven't given much thought to HIDs honestly. I agree that #1 doesn't look like much out there all by itself but there are a couple of trucks on here with them and they look pretty good installed.
Good stuff. Keep it coming. |
Well I gotta make a decision soon and get some ont the way. I just checked my email and I have a fella wanting my stockers already. I may be driving around without any :eek: :lol:
