    Does one switch light up both headlights or is one dim and one bright?

    The halos are park lights, the fish eyes (outer) are low beam, the inners are high beam.

    By no means am I bashing your beautifully built truck but I don't understand why you chose the K&N. If you see the stock intake was pulling from the wheel well and now you're pulling from the engine bay. It seems like the air in the engine bay would be hotter than the wheel well. I think you may have done better with a good drop in filter. I hope mentioning this doesn't offend you as that is not my intent. Oh btw that exhaust is sick.

    Oh ok. So it will still pull from the fender mostly. Also the conical shape probably helps a lot.
