    go with HIDs im runnin 8K and love them, imo 6 or 8K looks good on our trucks. i had the bixenons from the Group Buy they have every now and then but they burnt out quick, did some research and found out the xenon fluid in the bulbs tends to burn up real quick so now im running just low beam 8K HIDs and a stock color LED high beam

    What exactly would the dealer void if you installed them yourself? If something goes wrong with your truck and the dealer doesnt warranty it because of a mod you did, that mod is supposed to be the cause of the failure. If your motor blows they can't say it's because you have aftermarket shocks. I have took my heavily modded truck in for warranty issues of all sorts. No issues.
