I am looking to upgrade my stock GMC headlights with something allot brighter, preferably xenon. Anyone know of any upgrades? thanks

I would recommend the CE headlight harness and upgraded bulbs. I run the Sylvania Silverstars with the CE harness and very pleased with the results. The harness has a diode inline that allows you to run both high/low beams when the highs are on. With the harness the headlights are powered directly off the alternator or battery junction block. The claim is 30% brighter. Coupled with a good bulb it's as close to HID as you can probably get. My 2 cents ...


Super HeavyDuty Headlight Brightener (booster) Harness.
Creates a direct power circuit from the bat/alt and provides a four light high beam capability.

Have to agree with tophog. I have the same set up.


You can go to HID for 3 to 4 times more money if you want. Here is a site you can go to for more info for HID. Don't know if they have a setup for the 03 up yet.

What about Kennedy's harness, does that work as the same?

From what I've heard the "Kennedy" harness is in fact the CE harness sold by Kennedy.
