LED Headlight projection confusion?!

Oh hello everyone, I've got an 02 avy z71, i'm wanting to upgrade my headlights to some LED's or HIDs . I've been doing a bit of research and found out i need projection headlights like halos to keep the beam from scattering and blinding oncoming drivers. I'm a little confused as far as which lights are which. I've got 2 lights one above the other. It seems that the lights on the bottom are my high beam /low beams and the lights above those are turn signal and running light. When i go to search for combination packs ( the projection lights with the running lights and high beam/low beam) it seems that the high beam low beam lights are still reflector and that the running lights are the halos. Would i upgrade all of the lights to leds, just the high beam low beams, or just the running lights? I'm extremely confused.
 
To things for you to consider since you have a 2002 AV is that it has a unique electrical system and is a cladded AV and has different lights from a 2003+ WBH model so you have to be careful when selecting a new lighting kit.
If your main goal is to have more lights up front it may be easier to buy a bull bar or just a set of running/fog lights to add brightness at night.
Good luck with your search.
 
You don't need a projector for LED headlights any longer, they make Led that can use a stock light assembly..

Take a look at this thread.
