2015 Sport, stock projectors with Retroshop 50W HID kit. I am happy with them.

Thanks for the pics. Are these the ones that are $215 on Retroshop's website? I want HIDs for my stock 2015 projectors but would rather spend closer to $100.

Well You can try the less expensive ones but, I believe work will need to be done on your end to gather the parts needed in order to simulate the load of a stock headlight and then creating a switching circuit for HIDS that works with the stock truck switch. This kit makes it easy, everything arrives in a box with all the harnessing terminated and ready to go. Like I stated earlier if they brackets and instructions it would be as easy as IKEA.

Go order a kit from DDM tuning. They have tested them on numerous 2015's and they are (supposedly) plug and play. I have their canbus hid kit on my 14 and it was 100% plug and play, cost me about $110 or so. Just be prepared for it to take about two weeks to ship as they ship everything from China.

Get a cheap set of aftermarket stock style headlights off eBay. They are much easier to open as they don't use permaseal. It's only the OEM and equivalent brands like TYC that use real good sealants like permaseal and they cost u more bc of the better quality. Since U don't care about quality I would get the cheap stuff. Spend $135 on morimoto 7.0 mini H1s and get a pair of H1 bulbs and reuse your current ultra HIDs. U should come out less than $300 for everything. If u wanted to save alittle more money cheap out and get the -30-40$ H1 mini projectors all over eBay. They are light years ahead of your stock headlight and I use them all the time and light output is decent. Nothing on par as the 6.0, 6.1 and 7.0 morimoto Mini H1s but still pretty good with sharp cut offs. I actually run them in my retro'd fogs on my 14 ram. I did my fogs for like $130 total. I already got the stuff to retro my stock projectors with FxRs.

The 14 and 15s need capacitors, resistors etc to work correctly. The 14s need 1 resistor per headlight and capacitor and the 15s need 2 resistors per headlight.

Don't waste your money on the ****** plug and play scorpion style headlights. They aren't even real HID projectors. Your ahead of the game with the $30 mini H1s off eBay over those.

So buy cheap replacements off eBay and open them up, keep your stockers if I want to return the truck or sell them to recoup your costs. I've been retro fitting for a long time so it would be wise to consider what I've stated.

Good luck!

I have a pair of quads of a 15 that I would potentially be willing to sell
