    HID Install Confusion

    I think so... No "bulb out" warnings ever appeared... That's what I don't get... I just don't understand how something so stupid and simple could "screw up" the entire truck, it's not driving weird, it just has all dash lights on.. If I replace bulbs will they go away or will I need a tuner?

    HID Install Confusion

    No, I'm waiting to get the ultra white kind... That really could be it? I don't understand? Is it because everything is electronic in the truck?

    HID Install Confusion

    These HIDS have been awesome over the past week! I love them! They are 100x better than stock, but today I went out to the truck to pull it in to the garage since we're supposed to get snow... And almost every dash light was on, it also had the ABS light and traction light on on the analog...

    HID Install Confusion

    These headlights are amazing, retroshop rules! And I'm gonna put new high beams in later this week when I go to autozone.. I don't feel like taking the front of the truck apart again, lol, I don't even know if I need them, the brightness of the projector on high with the HIDS was outstanding! On...

    HID Install Confusion

    Yep! That's what I did! Lol! I actually created my own little tool that worked GREAT!! I used a blow torch, a wise, and some pliers, and now I used it to reach in and pull straight up and it popped on immediately, :-) but in the process I got the 9005 high beam bulb greasy! :-( so I just left...

    HID Install Confusion

    This should not be this hard, I'm still trying to figure this out.. I don't want to break the headlight, it just doesn't feel like it wants to slip in... Grrrrr

    HID Install Confusion

    Did you really have to force it, I am putting a lot of pressure but I don't want to put to much in fear of breaking the headlight, how much force did you have to use BlackRamHemi?

    HID Install Confusion

    Lol, so I'm trying that but nothing is happening, Is it possible to use to much Grease? Cause I feel like more will help, as I hold the projector and twist it just pushes the projector back down.. Grr, I don't wanna hold it there and break the headlight, or pull to hard, it just pushes it back...

    HID Install Confusion

    Not trying to be annoying, (I'm real stupid when it comes to this stuff, lol) but how did you hold the projector? I try but when I twist it pushes projector all the way down, and and then just clicks, I'm not to sure how to get it back in the socket thingy..

    How to aim your headlights - 4th Gen Rams

    So I installed HIDS from retroshop today! they're fantastic! I highly recommend them! The output in the stock projector housing is way better than the normal bulb, but after a drive tonight the right projector was a little lower than the left projector, So, I went in and adjusted it and as I...

    HID Install Confusion

    I re-pulled the headlight back out and I'm twisting the adjuster and nothing is happening.. I knew this was over my head.. I'm so mad.. I was just twisting all happy and then next thing you know the projector drops and is pointing down... Super annoying! Grrr!

    HID Install Confusion

    Uh Oh!!! So I decided to go test out the HIDS tonight! Brightness was fantastic but there is one problem... They are pointing down... The right side is pointing farther down than the left... Is there any way to adjust them, (please tell me I didn't ruin the projector) but it was so awful, I...

    HID Install Confusion

    After about 2 hours I finally figured it out! They are perfect! The ballast was really hard to get in but I finally did! I just can't get over these headlights, they are a nice white with a hint of blue, not too blue, not too white, they're perfect

    High Beam Bulb question for Projectors?

    Ok! Thanks for the reply! I'm new to this kind of stuff and these Ram headlights have the worst light output ever! Anyway, when you said lows will give me high beams too? You're referring to the projector's cutoff and how it raises when the high beams are enabled? If this HID kit is that bright...

    Questions on retroshop.us projector HID kit

    Ok, wow I really like the 5000k also but I'm just worried that 35w will be about the same brightness as the standard projectors, I want to be able to see a lot better with just low beams.. Idk, any more opinions?

    So I'm planning on ordering the hid kit for the 2013 projector headlights and I have a few questions, when I select the the 50w over the 35w it says the bulb will have a shorter life, what happens when the bulb dies, can I just go to autozone and get another or Amazon, or is it some big ordeal...

    Rear Cargo light covert to "rear fog light" ?

    Hi, just a quick question about the 2 clear cargo lights in the ram 1500 on each side of 3rd brake light.. Would it be possible to put 2 red LEDs in there so they would ultimately work like rear fogs.. I live in USA, but I've always loved rear fogs and also I think it would be very beneficial in...
