    Im gonna buy some used 2005 headlights today from a local guy and plan on doing the bhlm. I know they will fit ok but visually they seem different. The feflector or signal seems a little bit different. Can anyone confirm if thereis a difference? Looks like the signal has a yellow tint on the 05

    Yes, some have yellow film, some dont. I think they stoped in 2008 with the yellow film and just put in bulbs. I have seen some 2008 tho with yellow tint. It just varies from truck to truck.
    The fit will still be the same 05-11. Only difference is the tint.
