My First Retro - Adding Projectors And HIDs To My 2012 RAM

[theaaronbush]

Not sure how I missed this thread but I recently picked up an additional set of quads for $60 to retrofit some projectors. Looking forward to getting this project underway!

Having an extra set of headlights really takes the pressure off for sure!! My main piece of advice, don't force anything. When they are completely warmed up they will pull right apart.

And for only $60, I couldn't pass them up! Ok, on the H1, V3 projectors with GG shrouds and the quad headlight, can I use a set of H11 HIDS that I already have and just use the stock high beam bulb or do I need to get the H1 HID bulbs?

No kidding $60 is a steal!!

You have to get new H1 bulbs. The base on the H11s will not fit the H11 socket on the V3s.

Gotcha...so it'll work as a bi-xenon bulb with the correct harness or will I still be able to use the factory halogen. High beam?

All depends on how you wire them up. If you use the H13 relay harness the projector will handle highbeams but you will lose factory highbeam function without splicing. If you use H11 harness you will keep factory highbeam but lose control of the projector highs without splicing wires.

I seriously never use high beams so I guess either harness will work for me
