New Headlights?

Ok, so I am looking to improve my night time visibility. I was thinking a good set of HID bulbs? But I have also been looking at a set of headlight replacement clusters. They are quite fashionable and I really like the way they look compared ot my stock "yellow" set. There is a film of God knows what beginning to form on the inside of my cluster and I would really like to have the clear look of many new trucks.
Any suggestions?

I agree with firefighter. There was a thread not too long ago that dealt with hid's and the pro's and con's of them. I have also done this conversion, not too easy just make sure that they are adjusted right, one of mine is lower than the other but it's not that big of a difference.

Brighter more efficient lights can be accomplished in the wiring also.

Ebay

go to eBay Motors - Autos, Used Cars, Motorcycles, Boats, Trucks, Parts, Accessories, RVs and Other Vehicles and go to parts and accessories and type in the model of your truck and then put in headlights it'll bring up hundreds of choices

I've had the clear headlights and corners from ebay for a couple of years. I put silverstar ultras in the headlights and silverstar blinker bulbs that put off a bluish tint when they are off, and are yellow when they're on. I've been very happy wih the results

i've heard of those silverstar blinker bulbs. i'd like to get some bulbs for those they're called still they are silver or black covered until the flasher is turned on then it's the amber color. i've been looking all over for those fog lights. thanks. stay away from bulbs that claim to shine blue and be better.
