I wanted to make a new thread on this to see if people like or dislike this. I took out the retrofit projectors for this. Future plan is possibly upgrade projector and put philips HID kit in for low beam. Thoughts? I know Serge hates it already lol.

Yea that would be sick as well. I just liked the plasma tube that stays on as a DRL honestly. Makes it look more updated. Had to transfer the factory headlight harness over so I can change out the two incandescent bulbs down below (one white/one amber) and then get the philips HID kit. Then eventually change out the projector to a good one with a simple factory looking shroud like the Iris shroud. Not doing any of that now but imagining all of that done it could look really good.

we were just talking about these in a different thread. I'd definitely be swapping the projector out, but I like the DRL look. Need night pics 30ft or so away

Yea I need to adjust the tilt of the headlights and how high/low the beam is still. Once I get that tweaked I'll take some that's a good idea though.

Really dig finding and/or creating something different. Kudos.

Only trouble I have with this look is that it makes the Tahoe look like a GMC Acadia from the front view. Not hating; just making an observation.

I love the look. Definitely makes the appearance more modern. Where did you purchase from and how much?

Very nice felix! Actually like the look of the square headlights. Not keen on the drl but i could learn to like it. Definitely wouldnt mind getting these if upgrading the projectors is fairly simple.

Thanks guys. I'm actually wrong the drl is in same spot. The plasma tube only kicks on with the low beam at night. Not during the day.

I would want the plasma tube come on with lows and be a stand alone DRL when selected on switch idc for the automatic DRL system. I always flip my switch from auto to running lights if its day time. Also I am kind of looking into this now, is that I want both lights on bottom to come on with all other running lights when selected on switch and possibly be a sequential turn signal but for sure make both bottom lights turn signals and amber. I would do the same with these headlights as well.

Looks good. I wonder if the square d2s 3.0 fits in there
