I was debating the same thing, I'm going to go with the KCs I think...I like the look more with the stone guards, but you can pick up the Hella's on amazon for like $70...compared to about $115 for the KCs. I know I want to be able to throw the switch to turn them on without pulling over to remove the covers.

Can't speak for Hella but I love my KCs. Saved me from deer strikes a few times in one night.

I'm running hella 500 driving beams with 55w hids in them and these sucker cut a huge hole in the night. I love them.

I have hella stone guards too. Not the covers.

I have mine switched but also on my high beam trigger so I can turn them on and off with my high beams.
