Question New Lights??

I was surfing the web today and searching my new 95 Cheyenne, I noticed new headlights and tail lights are available for my model.
I found projector headlights and halo. (Personally I like the black housing) and also LED tail lights; full rectangle LED and these circular ones on ebay.

(Personally I like the black housing)


I wanted to know what people thought about them, if others have them, if they are easy to install, (ebay says you need a professional)< (I think they are full of it) or anything else, How to go about installing them, parts I might need.

I am not much of an electrical guy more of a mechanical guy.

im not sure about LEDS, but i know for HIDS all it is, is plug and play. needs to be hooked to the battery, and grounds need to be good, other than that, the bulbs just replace the old bulds and just run the wires, with the ballast and igniter box.

Can honestly say I love my HIDs. I want to say with LED tail lights you'll have to wire in a resistor for them to not hyperflash

The HIDs are sounding better, not sure if the tail lights are worth all the hassle.

I wouldn't mess with em honestly. The LEDs tend to burn out also causing them to look off. I would just candy the stock tails then buff them to a shine

I look more into the HIDs. Yeah I agree I'll get some better looking normal tail lights.
