HID Headlight Bulbs / HID Projector Retrofit

[chrislcrews]

RX350s in!

Question.

 

While I'm

Installing this HID kit I was looking at the projector upgrade here. Would it be too much light output to replace the projector and have the kit? Also... I have a shop doing the headlight work for me but can the projector be swapped out without opening the entire headlight?

Hey everyone, I decided to go a different route and I'm selling my fastheadlights FXR retrofit kit for 14/15 Silverado! http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/186850-2014-2015-chevy-silverado-fxr-retrofit-kit-from-fastheadlights/?do=findComment&comment=1804201

Sorry everyone, I am a little late to the party on this subject. I've got a 2015 Sierra 4x4 7z1 and like everyone else the headlights are lacking.

Is there anyway to just change the bulb, plug and play, that would increase the light? Also, might the Denali OEM headlights work as a replacement?

 

Sorry, just looking for a simple solution, nothing complicated.

 

Don't know if you were meaning to replace your headlights with the 2015 body style Denali or the 2016 but what I can tell you is that the headlights on the 2015 Denali are no better than the SLE's and SLT's. I had to put HID's in mine just to be able to see at night. GM definitely went backwards on the Sierras as far as headlighting went. I had a 2011 Sierra before the 2015 and it would light up the world with standard halogen bulbs.

The TRS kit looks good. Anyone know if this will work even though I got the GMC bulletin upgrade (BMC voltage changed)?

I haven't found anyone that has installed the LTZ projectors into the Work Truck Trim but I have seen a few LT to LTZ swaps and everyone says they are plug and play so you should be okay. I am posting a link to a similar thread below:

TRS = the retrofit source.

https://www.theretrofitsource.com/

 

It is an online retailer that specializes HID/led headlights and conversions.

 

Fastheadlights

www.fastheadlights.com

as far as I know is the only company that has a Bolt on adapter for the Silverado LTZ/ projector headlights. They both sell the parts for the HID kits but only fastheadlights has the FXR projector mounting adapter.

Hi, I am new here but the HID thread has gotten me very interested as I just got a 2014 GMC Sierra with the projectors. Boy do the lights suck! Has anyone used or have any information or opinions about the Enlight Alpha series HID light system? They have a great video on youtube showing how to install the system. I want to do something about the lights just not sure who to go with or which system would be better. I'm not ready, yet, to cut the headlight casings or I would definitely be going with the Fastheadlights kit.

Morimoto HIDs from The Retrofit Source. They have a Sierra spec kit that has everything you need. I've had the kit in for 3-4 months now without a single issue. Just installed a kit for my brother in law on Saturday as well. I think I read every post on every thread in this forum about HIDs before I finally pulled the trigger.
