Ok guys,
I know this will probably end up being a "get what you like and can afford" response, but I wanted some opinions. I have a crappy set of Spyder headlights on my truck. Well, they look decent but I have never adjusted them so the light output is terrible. Since the "oh so wonderful" government will only give us $600 instead of the $2k Trump wanted, I have to manage my budget vs what is really worth it. I could afford to go up to $2k, but if I can get the same or better light output and great looks cheaper I'd like to. Here are the options I am considering getting from Rertroshop:
1) TYC Sport Headlights with drop in HID Kit 6000K = $1,050
2) TYC Sport Headlights, Morimoto Projector Fogs, and HID Kit 6000K for all lights = $1,415
3) Morimoto XB Led headlights, Morimoto Projector Fogs, HID Kit 6000K for fogs = $1,730
4) (Custom Build) TYC Sport Headlights, Blacked out paint, Clear Reflector, Diode Dynamics Switchback turn signal, Profile Prism Halo/C Bars (RGB) with XBT Remote, and HID Kit 6000K = $1,940
I know this really all depends on what I want. I want great light output at night more than anything. But I also want the kind of lights you see coming up behind you and you think "damn, those are badass lights". I'm also kind of confused on the Morimoto headlights, do they come with Halogen or LED bulbs? I don't fully understand the Profile Prism Halo/C Bars, but I guess its the only ones that you can adjust to multiple colors from your phone? I've had my truck since I bought her new in 1/2015 and she is just under 47K miles. So I'm sure I'll have her at minimum another 3 years, but probably 5+ since she is paid for and has no issues. Any suggestions, photos, or other places to research would be a great help. This forum is the best out there and everyone is always willing to pitch in advice so I'm coming here first.
THANKS!
