Hi guys, I am looking to do LED fogs high and low beams on my 2017 ram 1500 projectors lights and I am looking for easy install which is why I'm choosing LED over HID.

I know Diode Dynamics is the popular choice here and they are on back order, however I came across this company, has anyone had experience with them?

Their fog lights look really bright. I am trying to get the pure white/cool white matching look on the fogs, low/ high beam. Not in a huge rush doing my research but want to get these done soon, as the stock lights suck. Also looking for brightest LED, but don't want to deal with the work of installing an HID. I prefer plug and play install with no modification.

Unfortunately you do not want led bulbs in the projector housings. You would have to get the morimoto retrofit projectors specifically for LED to get any performance out of them. Led does not perform well in regular projectors. HID is really your only option for good performance. Don’t be put off by the idea of wiring an hid kit it’s actually very simple.

I agree

the morimoto LED fogs are very good, even some LEDs for the high beams

but for the projectors...HIDs all the way, not that hard to install at all

The install is really not very hard to do for HID's. You can look at some You Tube Videos and Check out the Cummins Forum for some good info there also.
