    Test drive the truck at night man...you are going to get a ton of feedback on lights and there are a lot of threads on HID and LED aftermarket lights...will keep ya reading and researching for a few hours. For the LED bar in the grill trick it is most likely not legal and I would think due to safety reasons...blinding other drivers causes accidents. I do use my LED bar on unlit highways but only when there is nobody else...same way you would use your hi-beams. I have had my Morimoto 2stroke LED low beams for about a year now and am still happy with them. Others have not been happy with them.

    Main reason I went with LED was because at the time I was reading a lot on HID's bouncing and stuff...most of those issues have probably been eliminated by now.

    Check out youtube for light performance videos :thumbsup:
