I know, I know another bulb replant thread. I am just so disappointed in the OEM bulbs. I bought a laramie because i wanted the LED tail lights and the projectors looked cool and I assumed they'd be a lot brighter. Anyways, I've heard that LED bulbs in the projector headlights isn't the way to go. I recently bought some cheap Led bulbs for my fogs. they were cheap but had good ratings on amazon, and a few were from other ram owners. When I installed them they seem to be loose in the fog housing. I tested these out in my fogs before i go to the headlights just because they are not more difficult to get to. Which leads me to my question i guess, What do you guys recommend for high beams/headlights? Want something that will last, but not too expensive. I just don't want to have to take the headlight assembly apart every 3 months cause a bulb is burnt out or flickering or something. Any suggestions on what way to go? thanks

here is a link to the LED bulbs i got for my truck that seem to be loose

Throw anything to do with amazon out the window and go to someone who specializes in lighting. I use to use headlightrevolution.com go there and email them and ask them which of their LED bulbs will fit in the high beams of your projector housings. They have a ton of knowledge of rams.

Second option is retroshop.us and ask him.

Remember cheaper isn’t better. You have to pay a little bit of money for quality lighting.

You won’t pay anything terrible. This is probably what they’ll suggest but they may give you a few options. 993d19f2cfd33b9dd4b4d3ba9ded28ad.jpg
