Kinda gonna feel stupid asking this question i think but i am gonna ask it anyway. My question is I have a 2002 dodge ram and was thinkin bout putting HID's in. I only have one bulb in the headlights right now that is dual beams, one for lows and one for brights. So if I was to switch to HID lows then i will loose my brights altogether. Is that a correct statement? I dont want to loose my brights at all. Is there somethin missing that i am drawing a blank here. Please Help Me Out. Thanks

 

some people say that when you have the HIDs you wont need your brights. I myself am looking for hid's bought a set hooked them up via directions and had a lamp out light on dash sent them back.
seen a few people on here that have got them but loose the high beams. Some say its because we only have one bulb for both lights where some other vehicles have two bulbs one for low one for high. Some people say its the wiring for the high beams. some say that they don't make a high beam HID
I am still up in the air about getting them anyways seems like everyone has trouble with them and they flicker and one turns on while the other one wont.
I may just buy the fog lights anyways thats all i use anyways. so if they fail i can turn on the regular lights turn the fogs off to be legal.

 

you should go check out one of our site sponsors: www.hidextra.com. you can get a bi-xenon kit which will give you hid hi and low. you can get a set for your truck for about $105 (plus i hear there may be a nice discount if you mention dodgeforum) and they are garunteed not to have the flickering problem. you can get a fog hid kit for like $75 as well. pretty darn good stuff.

and you are correct, if you dont get some aftermarket projector headlight housings, you wont have high beams with a standard hid kit. the bi-xenon kits work with one bulb that is moved either up or down for his and lows.

 

you will not lose your brights. with their $60 kit you will still have regular halogen brights.

if you are getting the hids, i would recommend getting those projectors you were looking at. i tried hids with and without projectors...projectors for the win

 

Is the hidextra lights good lights? Do you have them on your truck at all or does anyone else have them on their truck? Wondering how good they really are for the price. That is a hard price to beat for HID's

 

yup, I have their 5000K kit, silverbullet has a thread on it, and a whole bunch of other people on here have the HIDExtra kit too. We had some problems in the beginning, but they got it all figured out now. should be plug and play with your truck.

Hey thanks alot..I think the final verdict is getting my new stock headlights then and putting those hids in with eyelids. That i think will look sharp. Thanks again for all the help

 

yep, never been flashed or anything...even drove by some cops and they didnt do anything

 

I bought one of thier kits also but have not installed it yet. But it was cheaper for me to go that route through them because they had the bulbs I needed (D2S) and also included the D2S adapters (usually $15-20 more) for free.

 

I have 8000k in my projector headlights with the halo rings. I love them and they don't blind people.
