To go HID headlights or not.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Do HID headlights really suit our old trucks? On a hotrod custom style maybe. Im going for more of a resto-mod look. All stock looking with big wheels and bagged. All factory trim, factory interior etc. I cant make up my mind on headlights. Keep the Halogen or go 4300K HID.

Obviously HID are superior in performance, but Im just talking about how they "look" and if they suit a 67-72 truck. I personally love HID's and have them in ALL my vehicles except my 1970 GMC. I kinda think the dim, yellowish halogens suit the old trucks style.

What do you guys think?
