Hello Everyone, I have a 2016 Ram Laramine 5.7 Hemi 4wd 1500 with a projector light low beams
What I am asking is there any led bulbs that i can replace those halogen ones with? Do not want to replace the whole assembly, just the low beams.
These are what is currently installed...
Premium Bi Halogen
Projector Headlamp - 9005Sl+
Low Beam
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
Bill
BTW, I just purchased this Ram 3 weeks ago. Nice truck.

I've got both leds and hids in projector headlights on my 16 and 24 classic. The leds were more difficult to properly clock and get a clean cut off line vs the hids, which were plug and play.

IMHO, make certain you understand what type of led bulb you are purchasing and it's capabilities before you buy as it's important to get them clocked propeely and a clean cut off line with projector headlights. If you can't get this accomplished then save your self a headache and buy the hids.

Thanks for the info
These are the ones here for the OEM projector headlights.
The highs and lows use the same 9005.
I've got them in my Warlock and they make a big improvement.

Zero Canbus issues, plug & play and great light output.
Ensure you clock them properly and then adjust them accordingly so you don't blind oncoming vehicles.

These are the slim base ones that fit perfectly with no issues of the dust cover not being able to be used.

I did this kit, 50w ballast years back and the only issues I have had is the relay's started having issued after a few years.

This is easily fixed - https://www.ramforum.com/threads/tired-of-morimoto-hid-relay-issues-then-step-inside.215315/

Light output was fantastic, highly recommended.

Unless something has changed drastically in the past few years LED's don't really compare throw wise to HID
