So i just got done with a night road trip in my grandmas new Cadillac and im completely amazed at the vision i get at night with the head lights in her car. I got home and polished up my head light lenses on my dodge and realized that night driving sucks compared to that Cadillac. The head lights in her car are those super bright blue colored ones and I was curious if anyone is using them in there trucks and what is a good brand? As a matter of fact just any information on the subject would be great, as I know very little about the blue colored lights. Im looking at getting some new lenses and might as well throw in some blue bulbs if they make them for my 1994 1500 dodge ram. Thanks in advance.

you could always go with a HID kit
only major drawback with them is there is no high beam or low beam, they only have one intensity, and that is bright
just google dodge ram HID kits, and start your window shopping, the higher the "K" number, the brighter they are

 

Ok did some searching on the HID kit. I had no idea you have to go with a whole new kit. Does any one happen to make bulbs that are super bright and close to the results of the HID style kit?

 

nothing is going to come close to an HID kit, u might try some silver stars or something

 

I have the silver stars, they made things a lot better.

 

Ddmtuning.com. between 5000k and 8000k produces the most light, 6000k obviously producing the most light. Direct plug and play. And you can get a hi/Lo kit that allows for brights. It consist of a motorized bulb that pulls the bulb back and narrows the beam. Different kind of "brights", but similar none the less. I have new clear headlights and the light spreads some, but I've been hearing from others that projectors control the light better and your light spread will be more uniform. Check my pics. I might have a pic of mine. Keep in mind if you go with Aftermarket projectors, the bulbs are different from stock.

 

i also have the silverstars, the reason i suggested them.
they are plenty enough bright for me......and way way way to bright for the oncoming guy when i forget to switch back to low beam lol

 

Projectors are the ONLY way to go. There are plenty of other people that are going to chime in saying that HID's in stock housings are okay, but they ARE NOT!

 

Wow Endisnear, that kit you posted looks like the real deal and its only 30 dollars more than a set of silverstars. How hard was it to install? What color did you go with, as your lights in your pics are pretty bright (the one in your garage) My lights are seriously 1/4 of yours. Also the dual in/dual out harness, do i need that? And the error eliminator is that needed? Thanks guys a lot of great iformation.

Our trucks do not need the error eliminator and im runnin DDM HID's without the harness and have no problems, the brightest color is somewhere around 4300 and that is why most factory HID's are that color, the number is not for brightness it is the color of output, if your looking for them to give a blue light you will probrably want to get 8k bulbs you give up a little brightness but will still better than a halogen, I personally went with 6k bulbs because I wanted to have just a slight hint of blue
