I've had them for approximately 10,000 miles or a little less, so not really a long duration trial.

But so far, no complaints. At night, coupled with high wattage white bulbs, they make the truck look a lot newer than it is.

Those halo projectors are honestly the only aftermarket set of lights I've really liked for this truck. I'd be very tempted to buy them if it wasn't for two things. The first one being that everyone says they are crappy at night. The 2nd one being that my truck is for sale.

the only other thing i have noticed in the past with aftermarket lighting is the way they sealed. My toyota was a pain in the ***, i had to silicone the clear corners, headlghts, and tail lights. My headlights would fill with water, and with these lights for the ram the wiring dosent look that great in the pic, it would be my luck they leak and i short out my entire truck lol. i found a pic of my corolla thought i would share my ricer days hahaha

I have also heard reports that they are usually wired incorrectly, and you have to use trial and error to get them wired properly.

I thought maybe it was just for our 2nd gen Rams, but I used to have a friend who had a newer GMC Yukon, and he purchased the equivalent of those lights for his SUV. They were wired almost completely backwards.

If you buy them, buy them because they look good. They won't perform at night, and supposedly higher wattage bulbs or HIDs won't help, because its not the power of the light thats bad, its the beam pattern they emit.

i would almost bet that a higher watt bulb or HID's would melt the housing!! but thanks for all the replies and input. I really like this forum, good people on here, lots of experiance and u all really welcomed me and made me feel at home thanks again.
