Hey Guys,

I'm new to the forum and also a new Ram owner. I bought a 2017 Ram 1500 last year and thought that the lighting on the truck left a bit to be desired so I spent some time doing some research on various forums and youtube channels to try to find the best lighting upgrades for the cheapest price. I personally can't stand bulb out messages on my dash and anyone who owns a Ram will also confirm that the Canbus system can a bit of an obstacle to overcome. All of these bulbs are Canbus compatible with all 2015-2018 Ram models that come stock with projector headlights and LED tail lights. Being from Toronto, Canada my purchasing power isn't the same as someone living in the States (Amazon.com has much more to offer than Amazon.ca for example). That being said, I have collaborated a list of stock halogen lights that I have changed out. All of these items are ship to both Canada and the States so it should be okay for anyone on here looking to get the best bang for their buck.

If instructional videos, pictures or descriptions are required for any of these installations then shoot me a reply and I'd be glad to share my experiences. I haven't upgraded the under hood light or the interior lights yet but if/when I do, I will add them to this for you guys. Thanks for reading and I hope this thread helps.

Cheers,
Reddin

Reddin, I would stay away from the amazon amd and ebay junk and det a good HID low beam 35 watt 5500k upgrade from The Retrofit Source.
I put this kit in my Rebel, Sport and another one in my wifes Jeep. You will not be disappointed with the output.
