Piaa or HID

Hey all,

With my new truck coming in about a month wanted to start getting some upgrades ordered. I know there are a handful of threads on HIDs but wanted to get your opinions on this
I have HID headlights in my 2007 6.0 I got them from VLEDs.com there nice but wanted some other options. I know some guys have went the non HID route and upgrade the bulbs to PIAA ultra whites. who has them what do you think is it worth the money?

I have the VLED 35w 5k Kit in my current truck. they are nice but have some issues with the fog lights when I first start the truck. I have looked at DDM tuning. For the guys that have them. What exactly did you order kit and what relays if any do I need? I am thinking I will go with a 55W kit.

Great question, I've been holding off installing a HID conversion set from retrosolutons, due to me concern of blinding people. It would nice to hear about a comparision of these technologies.
