Hi. I want to replace my original headlights pn my 2003 chevy Tahoe.
The Color of the Car is dark grey(almost black). The darkest Color of the Tahoe besides black. (Bad desciption:))
I have been looking on a set of Halo projectors.
But my concern is, what will look best.
Either black or smoke headlights???
Do anyone have a picture of this Color Car with any of theese headlights??
I also would like to replace the turn lights below the headlights with simular lights.
How is the light output compered to the stock?

Thank you in advance!!!!

while i don't have the projectors, i have replaced the lights on mine as well. I would suggest going with leds on the lower lights (drl, turn, parking) the cool white looks MUCH better than stock or regular bulbs. I can't comment on the projectors, but have read that without a HID kit, the light output with the projectors is pretty bad. Be careful what brand you order too, I have had two sets and they differ QUITE a bit as far as fitment and shakiness goes.

Good luck!

Hi. Thanks for the help.
In order to make up my mind regarding which to choose i would realy like to see some picures of a dark grey Tahoe With the lights mounted to it.
Even if some headlights look cool on the Picture, it is not certain they will look cool on the car....

I had the first set pictured with clear lens and black housing .. used them for 10 min then sold them on craigslist.. look great till you turn on the lights... even with all leds in the turn signals and drl's ... NO OUTPUT at all looks like crap cause there is no refection of light with just the black backing... lights looked like a white dot... go with something chrome backing... if you want black look get smoked... just my 2cents

Those LED bumper lights are crap. Had those, and the output is terrible.
I do not agree with what wicked1000r says. As the attached pictures shows, the black bumper lights I have installed, looks good and gives good output IMO.
