the only thing you need to do is when you order remind them to send you the special capacitor for the ram that you will need, its not a extra charge or anything but if you didnt get them with the kit it wont work until you get them

Look what was waiting for me when I got home from work lastnight!!!!

That's right my new HIDs are in and thanks to HIDextra for getting them to me quickly. I ordered them friday and they were already at my door, awesome service.

They also send the capictors that many have stated that I would need.

I will be doing the conversion today and look forward to that and also getting you guys some pics.

Wish me luck. LOL

Im experience with this was a good one. I am not the type to do conversions like this and at first was really lost and wanted to take the truck to get it done somewhere but I didn't want to pay more than I had to.

Like I stated I did run into a problem with one of my headlights not coming on but I got that straightened out. Headlights did take longer than the fogs. Fogs took literally 5 minutes or so to do.

I will look to get some pics up of my install soon.

They look good. When it gets dark tonight, make sure you go outside and lower the your lights some so they will not be in everyones eyes.
