    If im not mistaken all you need to know is what kind of bulb you have. I.E. 9004 or 9006 etc.

    Send a PM to Outlaw27 for a set of HIDs - he knows everything about them, including what bulbs, projectors, and ballasts will work. Attached is a photo of the set he put on my Columbia that he drives. Think he gets most stuff from www.theretrofitsource.com but let him tell you what works first.

    Does your truck have 7" round sealed beams or the plastic lenses with 2 bulbs?

    It is Columbia. In EU Mercedes ML headlamps got HID in standard. Really easy to find good lamps on JY. ML headlamps fit columbia

    HID in reflector lamps are not legal becouse of glare issues. In some EU countries and in some States cop may pull your over for wrong headlamps.

    So some Century owners use pre 2010 Mercedes G-class lamps. Other way - use Hella 90 mm HID projectors as driving lamps ore fog lamps. It is legal if projector got HID aprouved pattern (usually made for D2S byub)

    If your truck is a 02 century then it used standard 7" round sealed beams. I am a moderator on www.hidplanet.com. Please visit and see headlight retrofit examples.
