I need new (better) headlights...

[98sierra4x4]

So long story short my adjusters are broke on my headlights and they are aimed way down. So im on the hunt for better replacements.

I want to do 35w 5000k hids in my low beams and 55w 5000k hids in my high beams.

I have found these on ebay for $110. They are projectors and the high beam looks decent unlike most ebay projectors:

Your average ebay projectors: (notice how small the high beam reflector is)

And then I found these for $70. They are
plain reflectors with glare caps.

Which ones do you guys like?

Not a fan of projectors. I like option 3!

Im with him ^

Don't like prjectors but with HIDs, other drivers will thank you for having glare caps

Option 3, X3. The pre-made projectors look like crap on these trucks IMO.

There are a lot of threads about the nice and junk aftermarket projects on this forum. HID are amazing but only with a proper housing. Unfortunately, the only proper way to do them on this platform is with a projector retro fit which is not easy.

He started with "the higher quality" aftermarket projector then replaced them.

Thank you everyone for your opinions. Hmm decisions... lol. I might just try the 1st headlights seeing they have a 2 month return policy lol. If I don't like them I will go with option 3 with the intentions of doing a retrofit in the future.

Why not go led's? I put them on mine and I will never go back

Option three with 9011 and 9012 HIR bulbs and heavy duty wiring harness.

I bought these over a year ago, they are glass and look as good as the day I bought them. They don't fog over and they don't turn yellow from the sun.

Prior to these I purchased TYC lights, they were expensive, fit terribly, needed the bases ground and shimmed to fit properly, then within a few months they started filling with water. I took them off, sealed the lenses and then a few months after that the reflective coating started turning black.

I use HIDs and never get flashed, proper aiming will take the harshness away for other drivers, the old lights with the bulb caps got me flashed nightly.
