    This one is just for HIDs and questions. The other one is for all lights.

    Well this is convenient. So I was wondering what would be the best Hid kit for mt truck? I noticed how bad my headlights really suck the other day and really need an upgrade. I would like to go ahead and do my heads and fogs if at all possible. Trying to keep the cost as low as possible though. I have the big fog lights if that makes any difference. Also kind of curious about the switchbacks and what they do?

    Switchbacks are blinkers which are white as running lights but flash orange when the blinker is on. I love them.

    As for Hids, some people have really good luck with DDM for the really cheap kits. However I have had nothing but bad experiences with them. Personally I am fed up with Hids and if I ever do buy another set they will probably be Morimoto. I'm sick of the problems of Hids though and I'm really just waiting for VLEDS to come out with something in a 9007 bulb type.

    Well I definitely don't want any problems. What sort of problems have you ran into with yours? Bab bulbs or wiring? Just curious. I wonder if they make something close to an hid bulb for stock housing and wiring? :hmm:
