I can't speak to if they will work or not as I don't pick up my truck until later on today. I will say that I put LED's in my last truck and had HID's in the truck before that. I much prefer the 35w HID to the LED. I felt the LED light just wasn't as crisp. This of course is my own opinion. As far as the LED light that you are looking at, looks like the H11 is the one for you. Phillips auto light guide says 55w but i'm sure that's just for the halogen one. If you get a chance and want to look up www.theretrofitsource.com I love their customer service and while their products are more money I like the way they are made and the way they stand behind it. I would be worried about the fans in the LED bulbs you have chosen failing or just being cheap in general. again just my two cents is all! Good luck and if you get them let me know how you like them!!!

Those are probably the same as these on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/New-Brights-LED-Headlight-Conversion/dp/B00MOR4D5U

 

You'll probably be disappointed in cheap LED retrofits, and have beam shaping problems to boot.

 

I think that a quality HID (with Philips or Osram bulbs) solution will put more lumens on the road with a better beam quality than the LEDs that you list.

 

Here's an example of a well thought out HID kit (but you must get the Philips bulbs):

After some disappointing LED tests, I installed the HID kit and the quality and quantity of light is impressive.

I usually talk smack about drop in kits, but there's a review on this bulb that makes it look awesome. I'm not sure how good the beam pattern is. I'm sure everyone here realizes that the stock halogen reflectors are nothing special in GM trucks, but the placement of the emitters looks as good as you can get without retrofitting in something better.
