AlphaRex has multiple different styles, you could also open your stock oem headlights and retrofit them with some Morimoto projectors and hid kit.

Really it depends on what style you want. Projectors with built in leds or projectors with halogen bulbs that you can swap for hid/led.

Just stay away from any Spyder, Recon or Anzo headlights as they are a complete waste of money and will actually make your lighting worse. The only good aftermarket brands are TYC (oem replicas) and AlphaRex. The Morimoto’s are out of your price range and also are not good quality.

I'm running blacked out TYC factory style projectors with morimoto HID lows and halogen high beams. Better cutoff than OEM and lifetime warranty. I'm very happy with them. e54bc95deb50392c84c85ae69da92167.jpg

I pulled the trigger in TYC.. I got LED bulbs to replace the halogens though. Not sure if that was a good idea, but I don't feel like having to modify anything to fit HID's into the housing.

Hope the LEDs will fit. Do you have OEM projectors or regular halogen now? If you have halogen, I'm not sure if you will need an adapter harness or not. I had factory projectors and mine were plug and play. I had to drill I think a 5/8 hole in the back cover to run the hid wiring but everything aside from the ballast fit inside the housing. I just dropped my ballast sideways in the little recess to the outer edge of each headlight housing. It was a perfect fit.

Yeah, I have factory halogens, currently have LED in them and have major issues in the winter time, or any time the weather is cool outside, they always cycle on and off , and eventually have to turn truck off and back on to get them back on. so hopefully this resolves that issue.

You will need the RetroShop harness for your new TYC lights

If you want to save some money, there are 13+ projector adapters for sale on eBay, brand new, for around $65.
