Well, I ordered an HID fog kit from hidextra.com.....but some folks have had issues with theirs. I have not. Also, there is ddmtuning.com. They are pretty good as well from what I understand. The main issue with the newer models is the lamp out that pops up from the HID kits for the headlights. They don't draw enough power so the truck thinks the light is out. But the fogs do not have that issue.

Yep, 8000K in the fogs only. I am thinking of doing 8000K HIDs in the center pair of Hellas as well. The outer pair have Hella 85W yellow bulbs in them for now. I will have to modify the housings I believe for the HIDs to fit. We'll have to see!

I am thinking of ordering some from ddmtuning.com as they are only $30.

I just want to know who to order the headlight HIDs from. I don't want have to worry about the lamp out issue and having to wire resistors in, etc. DDMtuning sells the eliminator kits but they say they do not work for RAMs.....well doggie.....

So, who the heck sells them for the RAMs and they actually work? I don't mind paying...I just want some that are hassle-free.

I got my headlight HID's from Unique Coatings, they are kind of pricey but come with lifetime warranty, I haven't had any problems yet. I love them!
