I ordered and received the HR Front Switchback LED Bulbs today.
They sent the Morimoto Resistors instead of the ones shown in the HR installation video.
I can make the Morimoto Resistors work, and in fact will only have to splice one side of the Resistor into the wiring harness (White/Green Wire). The other side of the Morimoto has a Wire Lug attached that can be grounded to the frame when the Resistor is mounted.
My concern is the the HR Resistors shown in their video are 6 Ohm, 50 Watt.
The Morimoto Resistors are 7.5 Ohm, 40 Watt.
That brings to mind two questions.
1. Is a 40 Watt Resistor sufficient to handle the power?
2. Is 7.5 Ohms low enough to eliminate the Hyper Flashing?
Has anyone used the Morimoto Resistor Kit on a 2018 RAM (I have a 2019 RAM 1500 Classic) without issue?
(I'm waiting for a rely from HR)
