First of all, looks really good. I want to do it.

Were the kits plug and play? And how much were they if you don't mind?

I checked out the website - about $75 per kit. Not too bad. What is the difference in the 6000K vs 8000K, etc?

Is it the brightness or the color of the light? I replaced my stock bulbs with Sylvania Silverstars and the difference was noticable. I can only imagine what these look like!
What those dang numbers? If I remember, its the 9008 for the headlights and 9006 for the fogs???

Is it the brightness or the color of the light? - Its actually both, but stay with 6k or 5k..

The numbers he is giving are for different bulb types....the projector headlights take a different bulb than the stock, and the others are retrofit, meaning they came off a car that originally came with them and there area few different bulb types for them.

but you would order 9008 and 9006 if you were keeping your headlights, just get bi-xenon for the 9008's.

thanks cjs - I actually called HIDExtra and the lady was very helpful. BTW, if you call them and order and you mention Dodge Forum, you get $15 off each kit you buy.

I want to get the H13/9008 Bi-Xenon kit, the 9006 kit and the H3 kit for my Hella 500s.
Pretty soon.....

so do you still have high and low beams? im confused cause I read (at least for 04s) that the high beam wouldnt work? and also sorry to go off subject but where can I get some fog lights for my truck? Not the hellas behind the grill, just the regular fog lights.

Love it, looks awesome! Definitely something I am looking forward to do for my truck in the near future. I love modifications that have some purpose to them.
