    And would y'all recommend 6 or 8k. Havnt completely made up my mind yet. I still want to be able to tell by the light that they're hid's which is why I'm leaning towards 8k

    H10 is correct. If you already have fog lights in your truck, it's not necessary that you need a harness. However, should there be a big difference in power and what not, the harness will be able to handle it over your stock OEM harness. Just a food for thought. I simply use my OEM harness and nothing has happened (knock on wood)

    I personally would not go over 5000k. You want 6k or 8k because of the colour? The higher you go, the more light visibility will start to decline.

    Go yellow or go white if it was up to me......

    You'll always be able to tell they're HID's because of the blinding glare you'll get out of them...

    8000K will be blue/purple. 6000K would be white/blue. 5000K is white.
