HID Headlights?

[brotherBONES]

I know this will sound dumb and newbish... but does a 2011 Silverado LT have HID headlights stock? And if not, about how much would it cost to convert the lows, highs, and fogs to HID and how hard would it be to make the switch?

 

Thanks for the help!

Doesn't come stock, and for good hids, it will cost you a pretty penny. Look up recon

Thanks for the info. I figured they weren't. But I am definately going to look into putting some HIDs on the truck.

check out ddmtunning.com - i have used these no problems (2008 tahoe -low,fogs, 2012 silverado -low,high,fogs) all set were 35watts 6000k. just something to think about.

I'm a fan of FACTORY HID headlights but the Halogen headlights on the 2011 Sierra I have are excellent. I would not consider spending $ to converting them to HIDs. The fog lights on the other hand are worthless.

I had my HID's done at my local Chevy dealer. I only did that because I moved 3,000 + miles from my trusted truck accessory place, AND I DO trust my local Chevy dealer. I had my lows, highs & fog lights done. I put HID's in my last truck, and I LOVE HID's; it is hard to NOT have them! Worth every penny I paid for them.

I agree, the factory fogs are pretty dim.

I have used vvme HID's for the last few years in streetbikes, dirtbikes, car, and truck. NEVER had a failure. You can purchase a complete plug and play setup that includes lamps, ballasts, and wiring harness for about $70.00 Their stuff is very high quality.

I would recommend a 35 watt kit. I prefer 5000k, they produce a nice clean white light, not to yellow, and not teenage honda civic blue either. You will not regret it!

Don't waste your money of very expensive HIDS, I've had both. From cheap eBay ones, up to expensive ones. I've had problems with either or. The best way to do it, the way I'm doing it now is find a business or someone locally who sells them and offers a warranty!! I paid $260 for hi's/lows and have a 5 year warranty on bulbs and ballast!!!

 

I wouldn't pay over $300 for 2 sets!
