no, those are hideous and offer less than standard light output.

X2. Just got some and it's so much better. Don't get aftermarket projector headlamps. Get retrofit projectors in replica housing.

What projectors have people installed then? How do you know about the light output?

Since you have a yukon, I would opt for retrofiting some Morimoto D2S 3.0 projectors, FX-R, or even RX350 projectors. The Morimoto H1 projectors aren't worth it if you are opening up the headlights.

Google The Retrofit Source (TRS) or HIDplanet. Lots of good information on those two sites.

My FX-Rs just came in the mail today. I'll be retrofitting them into replica housings this weekend.

Lightwerkz is also an excellent retrofitter for the job if you feel the task is intimidating.

Are you saying YOU don't want to do it, or YOU don't want to pay someone to do?

Unless you retrofit one of the projectors mentioned above, or similar, you will not have better light output than stock. Search the forum to see what people are doing or have done... and please do not just throw HID bulbs in the OEM housings.:slap:
