    I'm thinking to upgrade my head lights but I don't want to drill holes or cut wires to my truck. What type of HID lights will you recommend?.

    Welcome to TW. HIDs will require new projector lights to be done properly. You cannot put HIDs in your stock halogen reflectors without getting scatter all over the place. Good projector retrofits are expensive, approaching $1k.

    I suggest this instead, which is brighter than many HID kits and properly engineered for halogen reflectors. It also involves no drilling or wire cutting, entirely plug and play.

    Thanks man I'm glad that you give me a good answer in order to do it right. I will look into those options and give it a try.
