I've been looking at aftermarket housings, and LED headlights as well. After posting a thread or 2 on the subject I think I became more confused. Lol. So far it seems that some of the aftermarket housings require modifications to install the housing. Fitment can be an issue as well because some come with the side market and headlight as one piece. Then there are modifications to the wiring which is probably minor and not too complicated. But what has kept me from doing this mod myself is how LEDs work. LEDs do not spread like a traditional headlight bulb. So you'll need to get a projector style bulb. For me, I decided to keep the original housing and use sylvania bulbs. Almost everywhere I read, sylvania makes the best and brightest bulb for regular headlights. I may use LEDs for my fog, side markers, and taillights but I'm not sold on using them for headlights yet. Reason being my intent was to improve my headlights. So far I've only seen that the aftermarket stuff changes the trucks appearance but doesnt improve your night visibility.
