34 here. Good Lord! I still don't have him trained.......
I must be doin' somethin' wrong. At least he's ok with my modding fetish....I think?
. BTW Stewart - I'll still let you drive the Z!
To stay on topic - I've found a bunch of the HD headlights on-line - they aren't compatible with my '05.

Just loaded up the Ex, vacation over... Heading home today, about a 1000 mile drive.
Ex running great!
Just FYI... If you have a gasser and going thru oil, you may want to consider changing out for PCV valve.
At one point this 3000 mile trip ( I do 2 times per year). Use to burn at least 1 and a half quarts of oil.
Just checked oil, it's full...

It seems that takes a lifetime to do. 16 years now with mine and every day is like a repeat of the day before.
You can't put 30# of cloths in the washing machine at once, don't put plates with chunks of food in the dish washer, you have to clean more than just the floor, yes the vacuum needs to be emptied after use.

That's because you're a good woman, Lisa! 
You and my beautiful blushing bride would get along great, if you're really a cowgirl. My wife has been into horses her whole life and we own three.
HD Harley lights? OR HID High Intensity Dishcharge?
Our forum sponsor, Clay at Riffraff Diesel has Harley lights for your '05 truck.

They are OEM lights tho, so they aren't cheap like the aftermarket kits.

ON Topic:
I like the bottom ones in black. I'll look at those and do some camparisons. I need something with a little more light out here in the boonies. I found these:
Ford Excursion IPCW Headlights - Projector with Rings & Corners with Amber Reflector - 1 Pair - CWS-500B2 $314
and these:
Halo LED Projector Headlights $226
Need to think what will also look best with the grille I want and then go from there.
THANKS!!!

If you need more light output use a set of 05' headlights and HIDs. They are much brighter and better color than stock not to mention the housing provides a better spread as well.
