Hello all,

 

My name is Tim I am new here looking for some help!

 

I have a 2014 GMC Sierra All Terrain 1500 and am looking for new lights that actually match the color of my LED lights and also looking for a tailgate brake light.

 

Thank you for your help in advance.

Hello timmis1127,

 

Welcome to the forum! I understand that you are looking for lights for your vehicle. Are you looking for the part number or a website to purchase the lights? I would be happy to conduct some research to see if they are available and provide you with a part number. Could you private message me your VIN?

 

Thank you,

 

Jennifer T.

If by lights you mean your headlights, then I suggest switching to HIDs. Surprised these trucks didn't come stock with them. Especially the ones that have a 50K price tag. No point in putting projectors in a truck and leaving out HIDs. I put some in mine recently, 55W 5000K HIDs from DDMtuning.com will match the LED DRL strips on the top and bottom of your headlights. I'm extremely CDO (it's like OCD, but I keep all the letters in order as they should be!)

 

Here's a picture of mine!

Yes. They are 9006 bulb 55W ballast and color is 5000K from DDMtuning. If you want to see what others have done, check iut these two threads. One is for those who wish to use halogen bulbs or LED bulbs while the other is for those like me who like HIDs.

 

Halogen / LED:

HID:

I will say one thing. If you get HIDs then here are a few pieces of Info you will find in the HID thread,

 

if you choose to go with a 35W ballast, you will need to order the 9006 bulb, 4500K color with 35W ballast, also you will need a wire harness and error code eliminators

 

If you go with the 55W ballast, like myself, then you will need to get the 9006 bulb, 55W, with 5000K color temp, along with wire harness. It is suggested that you also install error code eliminators, but when I tried to put them in, they short circuited and blew out some wierd liquid, didn't seem like water tho. And they also gave off that white smoke that electronics give off when they get fried.

 

In my opinion, If you go HID route, I would recommend the 55W like mine. It is worth the extra $10 so that you can have better sight and, in my OCD opinion, a perfect color match to the LED strips.

Yeah the 5000k from ddm work great

Are yours 35W or 55W? I have been told by others that the 35W 5000K don't match the LED strips
