So I just bought these Denali Projector headlights (OEM off denali) this weekend at a swap meet. doing research today and have found out the factor denali projectors are designed for Halogen lights. Can I run HID's in these? will it be better than just putting HID's in regular GMC housings?

Thanks,

yes you can run HID's. you may have to move the washer res. due to the depth of the projector

no you wont. they drop right in.

Run HID in them, with halogens in them they suck. Or do a proper retrofit now that you have them and enjoy excellent light.

So I can run a standard HID kit in the factory Denali headlight housings?

I've been reading a lot about the retrofit but that's much more than I want to spend right now.

Thanks for your help!

yup. you sure can, ran mine for 3-4 years before doing a retro. I would advise it. like I said, they suck with halogens.

I put HID's in my denali headlights and had to move the washer resi. depends on HID type I guess?

Awesome help thank you SO much! Did you notice a big difference after swapping to the retrofit? that is something I will definitely consider for down the road.

beckmand78 - Thanks for the tip, I am going to go ahead and order the HID kit and install next week, will post back my results on clearances with the washer reservoir.

Yeah, theres an big up when you just drop in an HID kit, with the retro you get a much clearer cut off and the width of the light spread is awwwwwesome. plus its bright as shit.

while you have the denali assembly's off vehicle. remove the projector assebly and clean the lens.
It makes a dramatic improvement.
