Go back and read post 84.

If you want to replace them with something then use the 50 watt load resistors as suggested on the first page

Ok back finally. So first bad news is hidnation won't let me return for a refund. So my question right now is, what lights fit inside the Morimoto projectors? I currently have 9007 OEM but would this fit in the Morimoto?

Who could I speak to about DIY with these projectors? I don't wanna clutter this thread so via email would be good. I just would like to get a list of parts that I would need to go with these projectors. I already have relay and resistor harness but not sure if these are interchangeable. Ordered them with hidnation gear. Thanks

Morimotos come in H1 and D2S. PM me your email address for a DIY write up Jermemy did some time back.

9007 will not fit so get H1 bulbs off ebay. D2S will need $15+ adapters.

Are you using a total of four resistors (2 per side) or just two resistors total? You should be using FOUR resistors total for bixenons.

thanks for all the great info, i was going to order these:

http://www.hidsrus.com/dodge-ram-150...dlights-bulbs/

(the first set for $57) and saw they are digital ballasts that claim to be flicker free on CANBUS but then they also offer a relay kit for $15 so i was wondering if a) these actually fix the issue and b) why i might still need the relay kit?

Just picked up a 2003 dodge ram 1500, great truck, thanks for the factory service manual weed!

Welcome to the site. Why not just connect the HID ballast/harness and resistors correctly and use them. Ive had HIDs for a few years now.

I want to go with halos with a hid kit but the owner of the body shop told me I shouldn't put halos,leds,or hids because I would blow out my front module again
