HID kits..which one?

[BlackBee]

Looking to buy some hids and my buddy went to ddmtuning for his but what is the difference between these

And these

I'm looking for heads and fogs. Are one for heads and one for fogs. Or what is the difference.

 

[TheMaddog]

the only difference is the ballast, a slim vs. a normal. thats all.

 

[BlackBee]

So a slim would probably be best? And they're 10 bucks cheaper

 

[TheMaddog]

actually the slim is just slimmer than the normal one, no power gain, its just for tight spaces, or if you want extra room.


go figure that its just slimmer

Stupid question but could i just get these and switch out the lights in my truck? I want to mine brighter and everyone says HIDs? I'm terrible with lighting/wiring stuff

 

[TheMaddog]

its actually straight forward. go to youtube and type in how to put on a hid for a dodge ram. it'll show you how to do it right. thats what i did. it's crazy easy

 

[BlackBee]

So should I go with the slimmer ones for more room? Just so it's not sooo cramped
Also do I buy 2 of them one for heads and one for fogs?

 

[TheMaddog]

you order 2 sets, like you said, i would do one normal (heads) and a slim (fogs), reason being is because right where the headlight is, there is a cross beam, use that, and I'm not sure about the fogs, i haven't done mine yet

 

[BlackBee]

Okay thanks for the help man

 

[TheMaddog]

no problem man, it's all good

Psst... JJ will hook you up with some projectors that'll make sure you don't blind other drivers headed towards you... just a hint to preserve a fellow ram owner.

[TheMaddog]

[TheMaddog]

Thanks!

Haha okay well if you can answer my dumb questions i have cuz i know nothing, then could you answer what a projector is? and do i install it myself as well?

 

[TheMaddog]

a projector is like the headlights on a benz, audi, high class cars, and if you want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen with burned hands, then you can do it. i did it myself, and i love my work, but if you want headlights that you know will be perfect, talk to jj our preferred vendor, he's the headlight mad man.

i'll just stick with updating the lights, thanks for the help dude
