I have run a wide variety on Gen II Rams.

Avoid the Ebay Projector headlights like the plague.

The 1 piece 'crystal clear' headlights have an acceptable beam pattern, but nothing great. I would reccomend finding a TYC Source *JJ* and getting the factory 98+ Sport Headlights. There is a bit of wiring involved to get the seperate High and Lows to work, but their beam pattern is the 'best" of the group.

Unless you want to get some HID Retrofit lights from JJ. I'd argue that to be your best bet.

120 a pop, shipped! But I can get them on my TYC order if you'd like. :D

If you'd like for me to work some magic when they come in, I'm game too!

Heres what I run. I like them. Good light output. Clear lens, one piece. Not too bad. Got the blue imitation HID bulbs with them. I really like them.

If you go sport headlights, they make a wiring harness to do so. Saves alot of time with the wiring

I have some 1pc projector style lights of ebay... they are the exact same ones wermbang has but I baked them/ opened them up and painted the insides black. I also run HID's in the Hi's and Lo's. The beam pattern on the projectors is not bad but if you run the high beams everyone will hate you. I wired them to run the Hi's and Lo's at the same time.
