Default HID headlights

I'm sick and tired of my dim headlights. I'm wanting to buy some HID conversions but dont want any of that ricer looking crap. I want something stock looking, i guess a clear lens would be fine. Anyone got any input on the subject???

hey whats up, if you are looking for some nice bright lights for your truck without the ricer look try getting 50 watt hids in color temperature 4300k-5000K. This is the color temperature that you would nomally find on Escalades, BMW's, etc.... they are more of a stock color bulb but they are nice and shiny. If you want a bright white light go with a 6000K, those are the ones i have on my ram. hope this helps, if not let me know.

Yes, look into the Bi-Xenon HID's. They have hi beams.
