Read the above thread by Soulsea on lighting.... Any PNP kit is not worth your time or money. The output is garbage and you will just blind oncoming cars. I made the same mistake and had a PNP kit for almost two years before getting a better idea of "good" lighting. Also check out HID Planet for a vast wealth of information on the subject. I finally had a projector retrofit build done for my 08 Denali and I could not be any happier with the results and light output. I hope this helps!

As for HID kits.....I've used DDM's HID kits for about 5 years. Surprisingly a very good kit for the money. Have had zero issues with them. If you are going to keep the factory lights with the HID kit, adjust the headlights down a little bit to avoid blinding oncoming traffic. I eventually went the retrofit route as well and it's 1000% better. But I understand if you don't have the $$ to drop on a retrofit. Good luck

I'm in the same boat, no $$$ for a retrofit. I JUST WANT WHITER BULBS lol

So, after watching a video on the subject retrofitting a headlamp is nothing more than a hybrid or your stock lamp and a foglight? So you kindly force open your housing and cut out a place for your foglight while mounting it in place and putting your housing back together? I mean, in a nut shell that's the idea?

In the most basic form, yes. There are projectors and HID Harnesses and igniters that you can pick up for fairly cheap. Without getting into the OEM product or bigger builds, you can get a basic with parts for under $300, and then you're just out time for the build if you're willing to try it yourself. You'll pay a little more obviously if you choose to have someone build it for you.

This guy pretty much breaks it down step by step and has, IMO, a pretty damn good system of doing so. However, the alignment part seems a long and tedious, not looking forward to that.

It may be long and tedious, but oh so worth it in the end... Believe me!
