Newb from Louisiana

Hey everyone
Im a newbie here, but Im on another forum and decided to give this one a shot, and so far so good. A full LED retrofit has been done on interior and exterior. Retro-Solutions 55w 8000k in lows and fog, debating on whether I want projectors for both or not. LED lights mounted on headache rack. Recon fire and ice tailgate bar, Recon Big Rig Running Lights, Recon smoked cab lights with integrated turn signals, which means the cab lights flash with turn signals and hazards (one of my favorite mods). Smoked tails, 5% tint with 12" eyebrow, PlastiDipped front and rear bumper, PlastiDipped wheels, Volant CAI. There are plenty of other things done to my RAM, just cant recall LOL. Anyways, since I know everyone loves pics, Ive posted some

STOCK

CURRENT (minus Hellas on brush guard)

SHOTS OF HELLAS (not sure why lows and street light are green tho LOL)

RANDOM PICS

Welcome from O-Ville, PA. I also tried another forum but found this one to be far friendlier and more on point.

Meantime, I cannot think the right words to describe in a PG way how pi$$ed I am at you for showing off the awesome job you've done with the lighting on that truck. I've been debating similar upgrades and your photos make it seem impossible to avoid!!! Great work!

HAHA thanks man, yea Im a LED & HID nut, and I got more planned
And dont mind the wires hanging down, they were just wired up temp to get some light output shots...cant wait to get those HIDs in there

Welcome! Nice truck!

 

[GhostRam94]

welcome and that is a sick truck!!!!! you have just gave me some ideas because i am also in love hids/leds

 

[TexasRammer]

That thing is badass! I wanna see the light form inside the cab, like how far they shine

 

[gotbrains230]

Thanks yall...I dont have any from inside the truck, Ill get some this coming week though. I still got convert them to HID and mount the switches. But heres some pics that I do have, theyre not aimed properly and shine out to the sides more than shown..I just wanted to see what these things would do

Just Hellas (2 in middle are 500ff driving lights and can shine a lot further, but thats all the cleared land I have, the rest is woods)

With lows, fogs, and Hellas on (just a comparison as to what theyre be like when converted to HIDs, should be 3x brighter)

Just hellas at 100' away

Welcome man! Nice truck. I was stationed in New Orleans about a year ago and really got to love the state (not so much the city though, lol)

Im in the woods, and I will continue to live there

See I completely agree. Every weekend off me and my buddies got outta the town and enjoyed what Louisiana really had to offer. I cannot wait to go back and visit.

Come on down and we can have a beer. Garner might say that I drink too much, but dont listen to him LOL
I really love the wetlands down south, but I can get the same thing 45 minutes of my house at the camp. I love going up there, just to get away from everyone and everything you know. Just go up there, get on the boat, set some yo-yo's and drink beer and not have a worry in the world. Yep I think Im going next weekend. I got screwed this weekend and didnt make it home, so Im due LOL
And where else can you shoot gators just because they're a "nuisance to the public", besides Florida LOL
Hows that for a short & sweet life story

Welcome! Sweet lighting setup man it looks nice!

Thanks man, yea I kinda an addict with it comes to lights lol
