I wanted to do this very upgrade as well but have since bailed on the idea because of the responses I got here and deciding to use the money on other upgrades. I have seen about 3 sets of headlights for our Rams for sale in my area on Craigslist. They all have said things like "don't like the way they look". I am doubting that is the reason because of what I have read on here about the cheapies. Here is my post on the non-hid:

Among many problems I have read about the cheapies, one of them is adjustment. I live near Stylin Trucks in Cleveland. They sell Anzo Headlights. I talked to their sales department and they said the Anzo lights are fully adjustable, but they have a hefty price tag. Here is the link to the Ram's headlight's at Stylin Trucks, they come in Chrome or Smoked:

From all the research I have done both here and else where I think I'm going to steer clear of Ebay and their cheap sets. I haven't found anyone that is happy with their results. They either aren't adjustable or have to make mods because they are cheaply made or just not bright enough or poor light dispersal. That's why I want to upgrade in the first place I think the stock lights don't offer enough light to make me happy. I'm going to check into the Anzo's to see if anyone any where has them an likes them...

I've got a pair of PIAA Xtreme Plus White lamps in the stock housings (restored to original clarity, of course) and I'm happy enough with them. I hesitate to recommend them because they're pricey, but OTOH a decent set of aftermarket housings is even pricier. So maybe they're something to consider?
