So would these be worth getting if my 08 lights have that signal light stalk and my housing's are black? (So they don't reflect light as good as the chrome)

Also the ****** thing is, my lights are always on because of my DRL's, so i'll always have my HID brights on during the day. I'd be worried that the switchbacks light will be drowned out by the HID.

Is it Saturday yet?

I didn't fire these up when I had them in the 07 lights , but I think it would be hard pressed for anything to block the light out these. Holy CRAP they are bright!

Switchbacks drowned out by HIDs? If you have the parking lights on, you aren't in DRL mode anymore right? I don't know how them crazy canadian trucks work, LOL

Cant wait to get my set in a week or so. Thinking painting them silver would look good. I just wanna know more on which wires to splice and all.

you want to splice into the turn wire. ground the other side.

Typically, the turn is the one furthest from the ground. Normally its Ground, Park, Turn.

I was just going to ask you about this. Those posi-taps you are going to send me - would they work for this application?

I'm gonna try painting mine tomorrow. Was just going to go the easy route and plasti-dip them...but now I'm thinking matching them to the rest of the housings...no chrome on my lights either. :D

I guess, I mean my halogen signal lights still reflect off the black housing and it's they are still fairly bright.

And as for the parking lights, if I turn them on I think it'll just turn the HID's on normally, on low beam. But either way, unless i'm parked, my HID's are always on. (BOO Canada)

The positaps will be too large for this. They are a bigger gauge.

Remind me - did we shave the stalk on yours?

I got my switchbacks painted and installed today. Install was a breeze. I'd say they are not quite 6k...really closer to 5k in person. But they look GOOD!
