LED lights on truck
Looking at changing lights on truck (2008 Silverado 3500HD) to LED. Has anyone done this to there truck? Is it an improvement to lighted driving area? I don't want to be that person that blinds everyone and for people to think that my brights are on.

You might be able to do that. I would check to see that there are LEDs available for your model. On my 2013 Enclave I replaced a burned out turn signal bulb and the system did not like it. Turns out LEDs are not really compatible with the flasher circuits.

Yes, I did find a company and they sell a warning cable with the lights to make it work

Have you gotten to drive with them at night yet? I have been curious about their performance and how they do in rain/snow.

If you don't mind, keep us updated. That's an upgrade I've been thinking about. Sure brightened up your truck in the pics.
