*Sidenote: First road trip since doing a delete. Had a kayak on my roof and got 16mpg, took the kayak down and did 17.5mpg. Before the delete it was around 14.
you only got 14 mpg on highway before delete? I've done trips where i've gotten close to 20 mpg traveling, pretty close to stock truck.

It's LEDs, I know a couple people who've ordered from VooDoo diesel and like them, they have a lifetime warranty too and I believe they're based out of Baton Rouge.
Getting to the lights isn't bad but seems like way too much shite to get headlights off. You have to unbolt the top of the grill(4 8mm bolts I think), pull it away from the truck and push the release tabs with a long handled screw driver and the grill comes off. From there you can access the bolts holding the headlights in place. I've taken mine off and on so many times I can do it in my sleep damn near.

Yea but I have a leveling kit and 20s/35s and usually was driving 80+. I'm going to run a few more tanks through it but so far it looks like I gained 2-3mpg.

Cool. I'll probably do my delete in 1 to 1.5 yrs time. Nice to know i can hopefully depend on a 2 mpg boost. May be doing a 3" lift soon though.... so may negate everything. i'm still stock size tires, probably looking at 295x65x20's size next.
