Installed these 5000LM LED headllights http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/351578649307 ... The color matches perfect to the factory DRL LEDs but the light output is not any better than stock, not sure if I'm going to keep them or switch back to HIDs

Only LED headlights that seem to work well, atleast from what I've seen cause I used some for a while, are some that are like the LMZs and can adjust at the collar.

 

I had some LMZs and they were almost as great as HIDs

I considered it, but idk, i think i wanna stick with the oem white led theme. I just cant decide on another color. Ive been wrestling with this on my projector headlights too. I kinda wanted to do an ambient led in there for when the headlights are off. My truck being silver, its such a neutral color... if i had a blue or red etc truck it would make my decision easier

Dude, a nice blue would set off the inside.. Nothing light, but deep blue. IMO, that would look sick.. Blue accents good I think..

Blue would probably the only color other than white i would go with. I think that would look good in my projectors as well. My goal however with this truck is to make it the way I think chevrolet shouldve made it from the factory (level front end, 22" wheels, lighted footwells, under rail lighting, running board lights, etc) and i just dont know that blue would even be considered by chevy. Im pretty torn. Should i really step into the realm of full aftermarket look, or high-end oem look. Idk but for less than $6, i figured id try it out and see. Eventually im sure ill get bored and mix it up a bit lol Edited by dbcooper748

Good concept to drive your vision. At least that way everything you do, or think about doing will be thought through based off of what you'd be looking for if it was offered stock.. I like that thought process, keeps you within a realm of reality..

I too am a new truck owner but have always modded my vehicles, some more than others. My last ride was a 2010 accord coupe, and my goal with that one was to basically make it the coupe that Acura shouldve made, and it seems i am now stuck on continuing a similar theme. Like my accord, i couldnt afford a $60k high country (or an acura at the time of the accord), so i have taken the opportunity of using this 32$k LT Crew as a blank slate. So far, ive got way less than 30k $ in upgrades, and short of a few things (mainly a 6.2 v8), i have the truck that i feel is coming close to that level (and in some cases eclipsing it), all while being able to pick and choose exactly what i want in a vehicle along the way. So thats my approach to how ive been modding Edited by dbcooper748

Awesome travel, and great vision. I have the 15 Sierra Denali 5.3L. Although it's top end, I still see mods that seem as though they should've been options or standard.. I too will do things that are in due bounds, but set it aside from other Denalis

They look rad! Just ordered 6 sets to do the inside of the bed, the foot rails and in the cab... Any pics of how they actually mount?

well they come with 2 sided foam tape. I already had some 3m red stuff, which i trust a little more than the provided tape, so i removed it and applied mine. Other members here have used the tape that comes on them, with no issues, but i figured since i had a few rolls, that i would just swap it. Im sure they will be fine just the way they come. Heres a couple pics. One showing where i installed the light above the running board (basically went in between the 2 plastic knock-outs), and the other showing the back side of the COB light in the process of applying the 3m red stuffpost-148296-0-80230400-1448515891_thumb.jpgpost-148296-0-01341300-1448515910_thumb.jpg
