I Installed the MOST Expensive Headlights on my LML Duramax!

[@caleschulz5019]

I personally think the OEM 2500HD headlights look better on these body style trucks. But love the content of this truck!

[@matt13ross]

Stock headlights aren’t bad. Their performance is though.

[@6eastModej25]

I agree the lights looks a lot better

[@Raul-pf2kq]

the white and chrome combo is very simple and clean can't go wrong with it. Color matching the textured plastics on the truck would make it even better.

[@matt13ross]

Agreed! Some of the plastic is being replaced now. Some will be later. Color matching isn’t cheap!

[@jeffreyjohnston6843]

I have a 6-car garage and still have a metal carport out back if you plant proper shrubs around them, they don't look too bad and down here in Florida, they can't tax you on them because they are considered portable. down here we have very intense sun and reg afternoon thunderstorms, so we try to keep everything covered..

[@Fpv___]

I love those 14 wides and stretch look. Can’t wait till spring to get rid of my 20x10s for some 22x12s. Your truck looks so sick

big difference, 1500 built from 2016-2018 re the most aggressive and beautiful trucks in my opinion and have wondered why the 2500 model did not come in those headlight and tail light.

Agreed! Especially for a higher price.

New rims are sick. As in how you feel after eating bad seafood. The rest is awesome!

[@matt13ross]

😂 they’re not for everyone

[@Laffs23]

Love the look of the new headlights when on, but off they are a little too dark/smoked out for the clean white/chrome look of the truck.

[@matt13ross]

They aren’t smoked though, which is nice. Clear lens but black housings. But I see your thought.

[@Laffs23]

@@matt13ross yeah maybe it was just the angle on the front shots with them off. Or my brain just looks for the chrome projector shrouds.

Could be. Yea I’m not a fan of smoked anything.

You should def body match all the chrome parts. Even though your going to paint it. Body match it with the new paint

[@matt13ross]

That's the plan, I want to color match the front end, mirrors and such.

[@navybuff]

Damn, just replaced my headlights, and now wished I had waited, these are awesome Matt... What are the specs on the LED bulbs, type, number and lumens ? Thanks for the video...

[@matt13ross]

I'm not sure of the specs. I'd imagine Morimoto has them listed. They are great though!

[@bigmurph68]

Maybe swap some Morimoto fog lights in as well...

I've been looking at those. Probably will!

[@LEGEND04131]

Sick D'max. Are your signal lights brighter than stock?.

[@matt13ross]

Thanks! Yea I'd say a decent amount brighter.

[@Cstanton04]

Stumbled upon your channel in my search for reliable vids on the ZR2 since I’m sort of in market. Currently I own a 2015 Silverado 1500 CC and I’m trying to trade up. They have some of these 2023 ZR2’s marketed down to 64 with incentives. Hard time deciding on what to do. Watching you put together your own high country diesel is sweet. I know I only have a 1/2 ton gasser but it is literally copy and paste interior and exterior. Watching that exhaust video had me looking for that LML though. My 5.3 doesn’t make those beautiful notes. So what do you think when trading up. It would be my first brand new truck if I got the ZR2. There is a HC 2500 near by with 52k in the dash asking 57k. Great vids!

[@matt13ross]

Wow I can't believe they're starting to bring down the ZR2 prices! I'd still take a diesel over the new ZR2 any day of the week. The ZR2 was a fine truck, but overpriced and diesel is just better.

[@branderson024]

I have a 16 LML, I don’t think these taillights will fit? I want to upgrade so bad! Also are those tow mirrors upgraded too?

[@matt13ross]

Those tails fit 2016s as well. Stock tow mirrors with upgraded signals.

[@branderson024]

Oh sweet do you have a video on upgrading the signals? I may have missed it

[@matt13ross]

Sure do!

[@patlager2110]

That 2500hd front end and headlights is one one the nicest ones ever made. I can’t believe you switched to headlights from a lower model. Any plans to fix the crooked 3rd brake light?

[@matt13ross]

I didn't go to a lower model, the LTZ 1500 headlights are way better than the 2500 lights. All 2500s got the same lights, base models, up to High Countrys.

[@TylerDaviz]

From strictly a function point of view, are these worth the $$$ over led bulbs in factory lights? Hard to justify throwing something like that in work truck

[@matt13ross]

Yea they are much brighter and better focused than stock with LEDs. Plus they’re not blinding others.

[@mrbronx03]

Great upgrade

[@matt13ross]

Agreed!

Well....$1500 but yes, expensive. Performance is great though.

[@jeffreyjohnston6843]

since you mentioned the wheels LOL the rims are not terrible, but I personally would throw them away LOL na I would sell them and the tires well i would break torch it and burn them ridiculous things up and hide them in the trash because I wouldn't want anyone to know I owned something like that. but if you are happy with them that's on you LOL. The new lights look nice. get yourself a car port you can get the metal ones they can be set up in just a couple hours. well, that's all it took for the installers to do it for me. They come in all different sizes.

[@matt13ross]

Yea they’re not for everyone and that’s okay lol. I just need a much bigger garage.

[@charltonscarpenter]

[@ivan_1177]

I know this vid is a year old but for the headlights do you use white bulbs or led headlight bulbs?

[@matt13ross]

Came with their own bulbs built in

[@zebmccollum]

I miss the days when you could pull out literally two rods and unhook the light wires to replace the housings.

[@matt13ross]

I’ve had a few older Silverados. Great feature!

[@StevePenick-e6m]

I have the same headlights but having an issue with the passenger side bulbs coming on when i put it in gear like the old DRL. Reached out to Morimoto and was told i need to have a shop disable the DRL's which a shop told me cant be done. It has to be a wiring issue with the assembly but I'm getting no where with them highly disappointed with the amount of money spent on these

[@matt13ross]

That’s odd. Never had that issue

[@MistaaFrosty]

headlights are hardddddd.

[@johnmedina8323]

You should do a chrome delete, maybe the wheels to block them out

I think they all fit.

[@johnnybravo2985]

On these trucks when you put it in Drive the low beams automatically come on, does that get eliminated when you upgrade to these headlights?

[@matt13ross]

Mine didn't do that stock. They come on depending on light.

Maybe not wheels but idk if they mean size/width or looks of the wheels with color? Who knows lol

[@Bluecollar_obs_limo]

Those look good,but man Alpharex puts out alot better light output 🤘
