ahhhhh much better, where did you purchase from? No codes at all?

No codes, no flickering, no issues (other than the off-color bulb.) Ordered from Amazon.

I saw a vid on led lights and i was courious..So instead of buying to try,i took a set of led's off one of the company local freightliner day cab and installed to my highway tractor...Yeah it was whiter but after 10ft or so the range seemed to be less than my upgraded halogan bulbs...So stockers went back in and now i got a cpl hid kits comming from cali...I know the hids will work nice cause i used a set(el cheapo) and liiked the range..So i made a email to ddm tuning and got a cpl sets comming..89.95(usd) for the ultra and free shipping world wide..

Yeah no wonder they didn't work well. The position and placement of the LED's is key to getting the right beam pattern in a reflector housing. Trust me, put in a pair of LED's like the Opt7 that were actually designed to put the light source in the same spot as the incandescent H11's and you'll notice the difference. The beam pattern is focused, long and bright. Another issue is that most of these LED replacements only have output on one side. I can't imagine that being very effective.

Here's my take on it. If you have a quad setup I would say go for LEDs in the low beams and leave halogens in the high beams. I say this because the kind of light that is put out by each is different. The led light is much "cleaner" and brighter then the factory bulbs and it's difficult to describe, but the light reflects back to you much better. It's almost as if the objects glow with their own light as opposed to the LEDs lighting them.

The perfect combination (to me) is running the foglights with brighter than factory halogens and get the best of both worlds. I have lamin-x yellow tint in my fogs to change their optics. For some reason, the human eye is much better at picking out detail (contrast) in low light situations with yellow light than it is with blue or white light. Don't believe it, but on a pair of yellow safety glasses and go for a ride at night sometime ( it's what I use on my motorcycle).

With no experience with HIDs, I will have to different to others opinions on those, but if I were a betting man, I would put my money on LEDs becoming the go to technology for automotive lighting and HIDs slowly losing favor.

A man of my heart. All my rides since 2002 have had been converted to yellow foglights. Its all about the low wavelength. Safety First

The sweetest light output was on my previous ride a 2014 370z, the daytime running lights which were LED bars on either side of the bumper were converted by myself via film to yellow. I liked it. Was aiming to get something like that for my Ram . Currently using yellow film on stock 2015 fogs, pretty lame to be honest, but then again as is the stock headlight halogens coming from Xenons that is, especially since I was used to hids for the last few years or more.

I'm trying to find a decent yellow LED 9006 replacements but I'm not having any luck. I've seen several dual sport motorcycles on the highway with bright yellow LED's which would be perfect but I haven't found anything good yet. The reviews on the Opt7 fog lights are not good.

On this ocassion I used a generic yellow film that I have used on past non led dlr or foglight housings with good results. I never changed the bulb itself, reason was two fold for me. To achieve the color plus protect the fog lense also.

Good to know, do they sell a clear film for the color coded area of the front bumper on the RAM 1500? Mines half chrome and half painted body color type.

I'm not sure but you can search their products by vehicle on their website.

You mean like the clear bra stuff. I'm not sure they do but I think x pel does.

Yeah the clear bra. I'm trying to locate a pre cut part for that area. All I see sport full bumper ones.
