The 09's are more like a black chrome, and still very chrome more than black.

You can buy BHLM from EBAY, but some guys have recently been experiencing problems with durability after a year or two with the paint.

You are better off just doing them yourself, using a quality paint, or just keeping them OEM.

anybody else have good suggestion on BHL of ebay or other company

do them yourself.

you can be unique and the paint runs less than 10 bucks. you cant really beat that

I did mine when I bought the truck back in Feb 07 and they have never fogged and are holding up great

ANZO 121191

Of all the BHL these appear to be the best quality, IMHO. I have a set.....I also retained my stock OEM Headlights.

These are pricey, so look around for the best price......


This place has the best price on these lights:

You beat me to it Steve. I have an 08 but I have the 09 headlights. It depends on the angle really, sometimes they look pretty dark just like the BHLM and other times they look pretty chrome. I know not everyone has issues with the BHLM, I just wanted to avoid taking mine apart.

i hear you man, everyone always keeps saying do it yourself, but i was in the same boat as you where i didnt wanna mess up my stockers. I love knowing i have my OEM set sitting here incase i wanna sell the truck or something. I got the Ebay ones. They work fine as long as you silicone the CRAP out of them allll around the edge's. Don't assume you got it all either, i made that mistake and then had to redo them cause water was getting inside. But its fixed now and it looks great. I only would choose to do it myself if i was completely broke and had no other choice... my 2 cent, ok good talk

It is impossible to mess up the BHLM if you follow the directions.

Which are very easy

I'll be doing the BHLM in the next week or so, i bought a set of headlights to mod. just watch ebay and you'll find a cheap set go. I ended up spending $55 shipped for the pair that i have, Both in excelent shape, one broken tab out of the two lights.

I'll be keeping my stockers JUST IN CASE
