What you have linked isnt a "retrofit" IMO.

That would include projectors. I made a mistake and thought you were going to do projectors also.

I have a brand new set of headlights, Oracle LED halos, a full 35w HID kit and Morimoto projectors with shrouds and remote controlled color shifting Demon Eyes for available if you are interested. I would not do just HID bulbs in a headlight without projectors

Yeah I'm just looking for a easy solution which is why I was checking out the bulb kit. What's your headlights look like?

The headlights are I have are not assembled yet because someone might want to paint match the bowls first. Once they are put together it is not worth taking them apart and doing that. Best to do it one time

Eh it is a work truck for my company. I'm not looking for the flash just a performance bump. I do not have driving lights so maybe I add a set of factory driving lights to turn on with my low beams? I was hoping just the HID lamps in my stock headlights would give me the bump.

They will give you a bump but just be blinding to everything headed in your direction

So I just wanted to note that Morimoto has a recall on some of their Morimoto 3Five and 5Five DSP ballasts.... the issue becomes more prevalent when it is cold out.

The issue is that they aren't providing enough voltage and sometimes cause the bulb not to ignite as well as flickering.

Just wanted to post up that info incase anyone is having issues with Morimoto Ballasts.

Sounds like that is your issue right there. You have a loose or broken connection
