Yes, I was....Interesting....thanks. BTW, the link is dead.

I think it all depends on what you buy....you would have to have the bulb awful close to the lense to melt it. I believe the HIDs bulbs actually run cooler and only use 35 watts....

The only way to do it right is to but one of the expensive kits....although I havent seen any myself.

then using our link bar:

Much as I'd like to upgrade I think I'll leave well enough alone...I'm a good wrench but wiring absolutely baffles me to the point of using a hammer to finish the installation of anything remotely involved with wiring.

Anyone suggesting it's easy...please remember...I still own that hammer!

Here is a link to the harness that I bought to put my sport lights in with. Putting the sport lights in will be the biggest improvement that you ever done. I could not beleive the difference it made on my truck.

Sounds like its worth the money...I know my stock lights on the 98 leave a LOT to be desired.
