Hey rsht, okay the site you mentioned about the hids, if I want to order them do I just get the h13 bulb with the 1200 kit, and what number bulb is to replace the rear brake lights? Did you pit hids on your tuck and if so which ones?
I only have my truck for one month so I'm still learning. Thanks for the info!!

As far as the HID light kit, I was only to point out a website that I have came across. I have not made any such conversion, nor plan to do so as I have tried something like that before with my other car. The result, although with a "whiter" light, the light pattern was not desirable to me. About the LED bulbs, per GM spec, 2007 GMC Yukon Denalis use the 7443s (NOT the 3157)... Sorry about my previous post, which mentioned the 3157 number.

Readers, please note in my previous post, my reference to the 3157 type bulb for the 2007 GMC Yukon Denali is Incorrect. According to my dealership, its the 7443 type of Bulb.

well, i haven't yet but will. i just haven't decided on which h13-2 system to go with; some are H13-2 low with HID xenon, high with halogen and some are dual xenon while there's a bulb that is h13-1 element but with a reflector that moves to make it a high beam- which i'm not sure of....
 
most are chinese made, a few are european made and $400 for set..
 
i'm gonna get a 6000K temp bulb; it would be white but not too blue... escalade is probably about there...
 
it's interesting in that no one seems to have a simple plug/play set up yet.... i just want to be able to plug the harnesses w/o doing any soldering/wiring.... o/w, i have to have the H13 harness and plug the wires to low/high/gnd-common ,etc...
 
as for the rear bulbs, they sure look like typical 3157s...what's the difference btwn the two ?!?!?
 
maybe i will just wait another few months for the ipcw people to sell their new unit...o/w, anyone know if the escalade rear LED assembly can be placed into the denali body? although i bet the factory assembly would be quite expensive...

Yea I agree,I want to change them but I don't want to have to deal with a whole wiring system. I thought that website that was mentioned before in another message was a plug and play system. Also how easy was it to install the GM lock pit?

A side from the two screws that you see from the top of each headlight unit/assembly, there is another screw hidden inside/behind the bumper where you can only get to by partially pull open the black plastic wheel-wall (need to first remove the 2-screws & 2-plastic anchors towards the front side of the wheel-wall). Once you have all three (3) headlight assembly screws removed, then you can skillfully angle the assembly out...
 
Just thought I ask, do you really want to take the whole headlight assembly out, or just want to replace the bulbs? If just to replace the bulbs, I found an easier way so you won't need to remove the whole assembly but only to remove a few plastic anchors off the splash shields (a soft tar material) directly behind the headlight unit. For the 07 Yukons, on the passenger side, this "shield" is right next to the Air filter housing; for the driver side, its right next to the windshield washer fluid tank. Yes, the access space is quite small (so be careful removing/installing the bulbs - not to drop them), but to me its a hack of a lot easier to get to the bulbs than the factory way and still end-up not able to angle the unit out of its mounting space...
