i dont know 3rd gens but I think they need a resistor on each headlight to work properly

Check your grounds, make sure they are to bare metal.

Check the polarity on the ballasts. It is possible to plug them in backwards (I've done it a few times!)

Check that the power wire to the battery is snug.

the only thing is this kit doesnt have any grounds, jumpers, or lines that need to go to the battery, i used everything that was in the box and everything only plugs up into a certain spot. Has anyone else used the NIGHT VISION kit from retro?

ok never mind my mind was blown when there was not other wireing included, but i looked at the kit on their webpage and i think they forgot to send me the relay wireing. bout to hit em up right now.

check that fuse also, ive had issues with it on one of my many kits. any pics of what you got?

when the order was placed, did you select your truck in the vehicle application drop down box?

Don't worry, once you get it, it'll be good. I ordered projectors and they forgot to ship them, but he responds really fast. And he'll get you squared away.

confused

never installed a kit like this can anyone give guidence, its the night vision headlight kit. hope the pics post.

What I did is to start with that top one, the one that you have to hook up to your battery. Run the long tail end over to the passenger side headlight. Take out each headlight form your housing and install your hid bulbs in the headlights and the rest should come easy. The ballast go to each of the headlight wires so just take your time to install them and you should be good to go.Hope that help.
