so I decided it was time to get some hid’s for the silverado…the stock headlights were allright but im always wanting more light when driving on I-88 or the thruway…got ahold of jen @ gearhead (jason was busy) and she ordered them along with like 20 other sets of hids for other customers…had em installed yesterday…decided to go with a 6k…little bit of blue but mostly white… before:[![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs074.snc4/35063_134228856613789_100000800277896_145169_4565069_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs074.snc4/35063_134228856613789_100000800277896_145169_4565069_n.jpg)](http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=141041&id=100000800277896) after: [![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs074.snc4/35063_134228866613788_100000800277896_145170_6756591_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs074.snc4/35063_134228866613788_100000800277896_145170_6756591_n.jpg)](http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=145169&id=100000800277896) ---

Here’s mine. I actually imported them from an oceanliner. They’re ~800,000k with a 250,000w ballast. Bi-xenon.
