Default update!

well i havent posted any of my recent mods on this forum so here goes.

xrteam carbon fiber stubby antenna, 2x 3ft firestik's, tow mirror antenna mounts custom made from a friend at cumminsforum. 55watt 6000k digital hid's (no more purps guys!!!!!)

plasti dipped the mounts.









with a dime for reference, it's way smaller than i initially thought.


came with all possible fitting's






Got here a day ahead of tracking, well the updated tracking lol. from retroshop, 55w 6000k headlights and fogs. capped bulbs and relay harness for the fogs. headlight harness had implemented resistors to bypass canbus and capacitor to reduce initial current draw. take about 10 secs to get warmed up. very happy and satisfied saved quite a bit of many as these were both on black friday special.

How did you run the wires from the antenna to the cb? And how did you mount you cb? The headlights look great too.

retroshop.us

in the lighting-

2x55watt 6000k digital hid's

$312.45

this seems outrageous but thats with a sticker lol (2.50)

its literally the best kits out there specifically tailored to our rams. 02+ with a canbus system, it's all inclusive with inline capacitors and resistors. So no headaches.

the headlight covers were like 60 bucks fyi. but ive had those for a while.

Looks cool. I would get new factory-type housings though, they would really let the light through then.
