Default Projector Headlights?

Does anyone have a pic of these on their truck? What do you guys think about them?

Honestly, to me the only thing the Denali projectors do differently from the stock Sierra headlamps is make a crisp cut off line. While it's cool and all, I don't see any added benefit. The only reason I have them is because I plan to throw an HID kit in them which, in theory, will greatly increase visibility. Plus they look
I've seen it before on other Sierras.

I had bad luck with the APC projectors.
They leaked and eventually turned to a yellowish tint. Also the bracket on the pas side broke.
There warranty sucks and they added no additional lightning.
Now with my stock lights I'm running Slyvania silverstar and I really like them. Bright as heck and they don't have the cheap blue import look.

Even the Xenarcs? Those are the real deal, and now they only go for about $400 I think. I remember they were close to a grand when they first came out.

I've got the APC. Got a good deal on them. Glad I did not pay regular price, not worth IMO. Even with a 100w bulb my visibility was bad. I could see better with the stock lights.

I know I have APC on my truck, but APC = All Plastic Crap.

You can get them hella cheap on ebay..... dont know about the quality though. I think they look kinda cheesey on the Chevy's-- but the OEM Denali's do look sweet!!
