I've been working with both of my parts suppliers, and REALLY hope to have something quite soon.

I have something here now, but.......to be blunt, its not weather proof. I hate sending out a product (even for testing) that I know can't see rain...

Patiently waiting JJ

I should have ours next week. Already tested on a few vehicles, just going into production. Made in America goodies too ;)

Can't friggin' wait! Driving around for the last 2 months with these sub-par stock halogens has been a *****. I'm ready to order the second you offer them. Your fix for led and hid?

HIDs, though......they should work the same for LEDs.

But, keep in mind there are no LEDs that work well with the headlights at this time.

I'm on first batch too! my lights are still using the stock halogens as the "relays" lol... I guess one went out cuz I have a light out warning now. But HIDs still work pretty well (flicking sometimes but not everytime).

I have a 2015 1500 sport, i ordered a set from TRS of 4300k with the canbus adapters. Everything works. Driving this evening, my lights would turn off for a couple seconds and then back on... Happened a few times, anyone else encounter this issue, or have any ideas?

I dont know if it has been addressed but with all chrysler/daimler vehicles they have an issue with supplying equal power to both ballasts. For it to work you need to run a set of relays and cancellors and you shouldnt have an issue. That being said it also comes down to your supplier and the power of your ballasts. We had to go through 3 different make and style ballasts before correcting the notorious flicker/cutout. We just started testing a new product that is pretty much a HID with an internal ballast. It eliminates the issues. However it isnt as bright as your typical canbus style HID but it is the middleman. Brighter than stock and the bright white bulb replacements but not as bright as HID. They are close but you can see a slight difference.

Here is an image of the bulb. We have had absolutely 0 issues with these. Only thing that we hear back is from the guys that have had HID. You will see a slight drop in brigthess however it outweighs the hassle of HID. For those that have never had HID you will love them. They are the perfect alternative and much brighter than stock just a tad less than an HID. Let me know if anyone is interested. They come with a pure white lense that is interchangeable with blue or yellow ones.

Correct and no issues or codes whatsoever. And the casing around above picture is clear but there is a blue and yellow to offset the color. Price I believe is 140. I'll find out tomorrow.

They sell for 150. Absolutely no issues and simple plug and play. I'll work on getting a comparison between the three. I should be able to tomorrow due to it being my day off.
