Default theres another way

I just installed these in my Ram 1500. They will fit! The problem is the connection the HID's require is backwards in comparison the the trucks stock wire harness. Ex. Male to male and female to female. Its not a plug in play like advertised. You just have to switch the wires.

so the hid ballast plugs into that adapter, the adapter connects to the stock wiring harness? seems like the size bulb would matter, and the adapter would be bulb specific

from what i've seen the kits are universal for the make and year. but the wiring harness that comes with the bulbs is backwards so you just need to switch the wires on either the trucks or the bulbs harness.i'll show an example tomorrow. however if your truck is after.. idk a certain year and you alraedy have dual bulbs, i dont see how you would incur any problems

Here's vehicle connector specific so you won't have to mess with any wires. This is quality stuff too. This is what i am buying....eventually... https://www.xenonking.com/cart.html
Hopefully the cart is full of the items so you can search them easier

I don't understand? All 06+ rams have H13's which are dual filament. How would you go from a single filament to a dual? It wouldn't work. I'm cornfused
