Now that I'm the proud owner of a 4-eyed GMC- I've been pondering how to upgrade the lighting. Being as I have to buy 4 headlights and the Hella / Cibie / Bosch retailers don't generally price a 5.75" H4 unit lower than a 7" one- I'll end up spending 2x the price as you Chevy guys. This got me thinking....if I'm gonna be dropping $200-$300 for quality e-code headlights anyways, maybe I'll try to find something a little further off the beaten path.
Here's what I found:

Granted the bracketry is for an E30 BMW, but with a little tweekin' I think I can shoe horn the modules into my GMC mounts.

Whaddya'll think?
