Double post....
Well I tried to get a shot with an HID on one side & halogen on the other & that didn't work. lol So I had to take a pic with the driving lights on & the HID's on. Before: After the wiring was done (I mounted the ballast on the fender on the drivers side & to the radiator suppost on the passengers side): Just the HID's (they are so white/blue that you can't really tell there on in the pic, but they are very bright even in broad daylight). I will try to get a night pic tonight.

This afternoon I tested the bulbs & ballast & I have come to the conclusion that the ballast is fine it is the bulb so I will be calling ddm tommorrow after school & look into the warrenty & getting the bulb replaced.

Well i tinted my stock taillights. Did it myself & it cost me $20. two coats of vht nightshade & 5 coats of krylon gloss clear, turned out a bit darker than I was wanting them too. They aren't 100% perfect but it saved me some money by doing it myself.
The light still shows through pretty well, but the light output sucked before I tinted them anyways, I may put some leds in. Also ignore the dirty truck. Some pics:

here are some night pics:
Here they are with just the regular parking lights on. You may be wondering why I have two bulbs lit per side (well my brake lights are not on) I did a 03+ taillight mod on my truck this morning so when just my parking lights are on I have four bulbs lit up instead of just two. I still have the brake light ability, gets much brighter. Just the light all by itself.

I have to agree, it turned out really well and the look is even better now.

Here are some day shots with the lights off. I plan on painting the silver trim around the parking lights black, it will just look better.

Got my new valve covers on. Also finally got my lights aligned pretty much perfectly so I can see everything going down the road. Now I just need too get my headers put on.

Here is a new vid I made of my truck, not much different than the last one, but the sound quality is a bit better.
