Can you do a hid retrofit on obs Tahoes. I dont know what to decide on , 1 single projector or quad projectors. What do you recommend, projector size , bulb, easy maintenance? Led projector or hid? I will have someone else do the retrofit. Theres a big obs gmt400 cult following, if you guys made premade headlights alot of people would buy them.

You sure can! It all really comes down to what you want out of your headlights, and what can fit. Since you're having someone else do the retrofit, I would reach out to them and get their input as well. Personally, if the Morimoto MLED 2.0 or Morimoto D2s 5.0 can fit, those will be your best options!

Question. When setting up your cut off line is the headlight resting on the table or are you holding it ? I have a gmc same era as this but I’m pretty sure if you set them on the table they are gonna be aiming at the floor…but if you are holding them how do know your holding them the same way ? Once the headlight is sealed back up is that it no more adjusting your cut off line ?

@RetrofitSource

We use a set up on a table when aiming, we've made brackets that hold the headlight up. You can also aim on the vehicle, without putting the lens back on and sealing everything up first.

OEM Reflector Headlights for the Tahoe, but you retrofit both projector and reflector headlights.

If the headlight enclosure is fully sealed, doesn’t the LED projector overheat? Because the fan will just be recirculating the hot air inside the headlight housing.

That x-acto knife hole looks doo-doo. For a 1/2" hole, find a scrap piece of 1/2" conduit or some other pipe/tube and sharpen the edge. You just made a punch. Place the cap over a block of wood and use a hammer to drive the sharpened pipe through the cap. It makes a perfect hole. You can also buy leather punch sets for less than $20 that work great for rubber and come with a bunch of different sizes up to 3/4".
