I am new to Ram Trucks and this is my second post. I figure it was time to contribute.
After scrolling through post after post, didn't seem like much had success with cheap LED headlights.
I bought these from ebay for $43.99 shipped from Cali and got them in 3 days.
I am not here to advertise. If you want the vendor's name ask or message me.
What you see is the whole assembly. They differ from the ebay post. The ones posted had a long CAN bus adapter (like the expensive brands) that would need to be tucked into the headlight housing. Lucky for me these showed up.
Here are blurry close ups.
Best instructions I have ever seen for an ebay product.
Instead of just having the CAN bus adapter flop around in the housing. I taped it to the housing.
There is a flat spot on the housing perfect for mounting.
Head on comparison.
Comparison on my garage at dusk. This is prior to aiming. The LED is just a tad higher, I aimed lower than OEM due to brightness.
It was getting cold and I was too lazy to take more pics, but I think you guys get the idea.
Over a week of use. No flickers, no false starts, no error messages.
One bad thing is that the plugs are not polarized. I had to unplug and flip the harness.
The pattern is definitely not as focused as halogens. The passenger side did not have an as well defined hot spot, making it a bit harder to aim that headlight down.
These things are bright!! High beams barely make a difference. Unfortunately these have some glare, that's what you get when installing into a reflector. I feel like an A-hole to oncoming traffic, but no one has flashed me yet.
