adding oem HID's to 2011+ Durango

ok guys...this mod is underway...so lets discuss and try to work this out. I ordered a brand new set of black housing oem HID's from Alpha auto in GB, Wi for VERY CHEAP! They should be here by atleast Friday! I also ordered a set of H11 HID relay harnesses. I know from previous experience on my WK Grand Cherokee that I can use an HID relay harness to fire the ballasts.....BUT...my conundrum is this:

Where does the harness plug into the Durango lamp? Is it hidden in the pic? Can SOMEONE show me a pic of the harness or where it plugs into the lamps?

OK....this should be easy! Just found some pics of grand cherokee hid lamps. You can see where the harness plugs into the lamp. I have circled each in red. Looks like I can unscrew the passenger side and pull the plug on the drivers side to access the wiring for the ballasts. Easy peasey FOLKS! Look for this to be done soon!

Amazing how these shops do that...grrr!

yeah...even put me on hold to make sure they were in stock! I guess someone more important wanted them? Told me today they should be there next week by Wed. and then 2 days to me. Oh well....LOL

Not a way to do business, imo. Hope you get what you ordered.

Scottina11heat May 10, 2012 12:51 AM
