KiKaZz74 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 hey guys. so my current lights suck balls. brights are dimmer than most lows. i got water inside my passenger side and a little in driver side. i run my brights and they dont seem bright enough to me. maybe 70-100 ft of good light is all i got. no side light really. but what im wanting to know is should i just do a replacement housing or try to get projectors for my graduation present? id love to have projectors but idk if theyd be worth it with how old the truck is. id need some links to both types of housing. and if its a hid projector throw in fogs too. truck is a 1997 dodge dakota v8 5.2L this is what i found so far http://www.stylintrucks.com/category/lighting/headlights.aspx?scid=SG146554&ST_SRC=PPC&gclid=COHKpsm2tbcCFc9FMgod9EsAug that has both projectors and stock. all help is appreciated. thank you.

BeatBox Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 im not a fan of after market projectors, sometimes they not as bright as what a projector should be unless you get the expensive ones i would get them off ebay if your trying to keep it cheap i would get something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/98-03-Dodge-Dakota-Durango-Smoke-Housing-Head-Light-Clear-Reflector-Bumper-Lamp-/330923441487?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1997|Make%3ADodge|Model%3ADakota&hash=item4d0c92fd4f&vxp=mtr

Pioneerchuck Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 You can get a set of normal Head light assemblies and still run the HID lights in them.
KiKaZz74 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Posted May 28, 2013 I've thought about that but ppl seem to hate it cuz it blinds most ppl.

Pioneerchuck Posted May 28, 2013 Report Posted May 28, 2013 Lol depending on the HID you buy you're going to blind them whether you have a projectors or not. Ive got 10k HIDs in a projector housing and people flash me all the time.
