This is the same kit I bought. I missed this thread in my searchs over the past couple days. How are they holding up so far? I just put mine in and was worried I would need a relay, I guess not.
I have pics of the pass side harness i built in my gallery in my signature links. Also, check the sticky and dedicated HID thread at the top of the section.
Supposedly not if you have true CANBUS ballasts but the problem is there are a lot of knock offs out there that say they are but you dont know what until you plug them up and see what you got.
Yea I saw on eBay and there were tOns of Canbus ballasts pretty cheap but that just seems to easy. I don't mind spending a little extra For a true plug and play kit. I'm just tired of trying to get the little resistors to work without melting anything in the process, the only one getting super hot is the low beam one on the driver side. But does anyone have a link to a true just plug and play kit? I tried clicking on the one I think it was the first page but didn't work for me.

HIDextra does not offer a CANBUS bi-xenon kit. I ordered the CANBUS kit for my truck thinking they came with bi-xenon bulbs, but the info page clearly states they are HI/LO bulbs (I just was not paying any attention and made a bad assumption). What year is your truck? Only the '06+ RAMS have CANBUS, but I do not know what makes the CANBUS ballasts special. They may have just integrated resistors/caps into the ballast instead of selling them separately. At any rate, contact them by email before purchase if you want CANBUS ballasts with bi-xenon bulbs, and they will cook up an order and send you a bill. Since they are no longer on sale, those parts are gonna set you back around the $200-210 mark. I highly recommend HIDextra, as they were prompt and polite in responding to my queries (although possibly not native at American English) and they ship insanely fast.

Depends on if you want to blind other cars or not. If you aim your headlights slightly down, it honestly isn't that bad. I am using the stock housings, and I could not be happier with the light output or the pattern. Spending a few hundred dollars on quality projectors, then pulling my headlights apart to retrofit them, does not sound worth it (to me) for the enhanced cutoff and lessened glare.
