Hey guys I got a 97 Ram 2500 I was wondering if anyone has bought an HID kit for their truck and if so what brand? I kinda like the 10k color but didnt know where to start or which bulbs would fit in the factory headlamp housing or if they even can

 

I had 10000K in my truck I wouldn't get them if i were you. My dad has 5000k in his truck and it is so much brighter than my 10000K was the bulbs went bad after a year i just sent the kit back yesterday i should get a new kit in a few days.

 

Where did you get your kit from?

 

I have HID's in my truck, and love them went with 6k bulbs because I wanted a hint of blue and they look great, If your looking for light output get the 5k bulbs. The max I would go on a dd is 8k bulbs because after that you get to blue and draw attention

I bought mine from DDM tuning and been happy with them, havent had a problem with them either I got one of there raptor kits and one of the slim kits.....I would spend the money on the slim kit if it was me again.

 

Did you guys put them in the factory mounting hole or did you drill new holes for the bulbs? Also what bulb type the 9004?

 

i have an aftermarket headlight assembly, and got the 10000k HIDs.. i love them. i can see soo much more, and it doesn't blind the oncoming people because my light is in a projector from the aftermarket assembly. overall good buy

 

Got the sonar brand projectors and 4300k HID bulbs.

You really shouldn't run HID lights in the stock housings, you need the upper light shields in projector housings to keep the HID lights from blinding oncoming traffic.t

 

Ok so I should just get some new projector healamps then for it?

 

Would somehting like this work?

Should, you'd have to read up on exactly what is in the package they offer. That is a steal if it includes the hid lights, ballasts, wiring harness, and projector housings. I personally wouldn't go with 10000k bulbs, that is very purple, and will limit your visibility. 4300k is what factory cars sold with hid lights are running, and they are plenty white, IMO.


Almost too good a deal....
