Those don't appear to be the hi and lo beams type, and you might have to modify the stock headlight housings, which could be a problem later if you decide to return to stock. Retrofitting HID isn't legal, either, and the retro kits usually have too much glare and annoy other drivers; these points may or may not concern you. In general cheap HID kits usually don't last long, and the shipping is kind of high. I really hate to sound so negative, dude, but that's my honest opinion. Good luck, though, if you do go for them.

No negativity taken, i value your opinions. I think hid might not be my option just brighter headlights. I just ordered new black oem headlights so will wait to see when they come in the difference from stock but ideas on headlight bulbs., that last?!

Thanks; I'm glad that no offense was taken. I know what you mean about wanting brighter headlights. I added relays to my '94 truck, to power the lights, and just put in stock replacement bulbs that claimed to be 30% brighter. That helped a lot. Good luck with yours.
