    Thanks for the video. I ordered the same lights for my 2020 RAM 1500 Bighorn and they are a lot brighter and look way better. I replaced the low beams, high beams, turning signals and the fog lights. Your video really helped me out with the install! I really appreciate your time to make this video.

      Id like to do the same thing to my Bighorn. Would you be willing share the place you purchased those upgrades and the part/item numbers?

    It’s actually easier to remove the bolts on the fender liners and reach up through the fender to get the low beams. They will be a lot less panting and cursing especially if you have larger hands.

    Honestly I was just gonna watch a bit and move on but because I get DAD is the hero here a Gen X'er I can tell. Please continue to spread basic knowledge on the so called high tech cars lol. Thank you for explaining in such detail that does help.

      I’m 40 and grew up pretty poor in north Louisiana and my dad fixed everything and I mean everything. He made me participate every single time. I used to really hate it but now I’m the dad with a son who is helping me fix everything 😂. It was mostly to be involved and learn the basics and at a young age I was so perplexed how he made these repairs when I wasn’t around to give wrenches and hold the lights. I still tell him how thankful I am and I’m shocked at the amount of men under 30 that can’t change a flat tire.
      Kudos to this family and keep the knowledge going! Also, I’m going to put a set of these in my Ram!

    Your video has helped me tremendously & I appreciate you making/posting it. I'm in the process of installing fog/low/high beam LED bulbs & decided to take a break before attempting the passenger low beam....all I have left.

      Just lift the airbox straight up. That's what I did. They're not bolted down. Just on rubber mounts.

    Hope you adjusted the lens down to compensate for the higher beam cutoff... You can see the difference at 11:57. Even this little bit is what blinds oncoming traffic. Just as bad as the idiots that raise their trucks without adjusting the lights...

    The low beam lamps are much easier to get to if you remove the 4 wheel well cover screws, you can reach it directly.

    Whats missing is you have to use resistors on all LED conversions for Big Horn or you get flickering or light outage. I have been through 3 sets of LEDs in under 2 years. It was such a huge pain in the butt, I went back to Xenon 6500 lights.

    @clintmorris2760 7 місяців тому

    So a lot of people say you can’t just plug the led in and that’s it, you have to get the resistor that goes b4 the bulb so it don’t strobe or flicker on you!!

    I really enjoyed watching your video about the headlight bulb replacement. It reminded me of working on my car as a young man with my Dad there to guide me. Having him there to come to the rescue when I couldn’t get a task done or answer my questions. My dad saved the day lots of times and I learned a lot of things from him. Most importantly, there will not always be someone else there to get that stubborn bolt loosened or un-clip a connector. Cherish every opportunity to work with your Dad and learn from him because one day he will not be there to get you out of a tough spot.
    Two criticisms to point out about the video:
    1. Work on better editing and
    Continuity of what you are filming.
    2. Stop saying “Hey guys” at the beginning of each take. This is like nails on a chalkboard and almost made me skip watching.

    Hello, I have a 2022 model and changed mine using your video (great vid) but after a few days, the began to blink/flicker 3 time and then turned off. I ended putting back the originals. My questions is, did yours do the same thing? If so did you replace them. Whether your flickered or not, what model LED's did you get? I truly only want to do this 1 more time.

    • @nicka8583
      @nicka8583 Рік тому

      William - I did some similar upgrades years ago, and there are some extra parts needed, forgot the exact wording but something like resistors or anti flicker modules or whatever they were. small plastic boxes with some computer chips / wiring inside, which basically fix the issue between the new LED lights and your truck's computer. This video showing just swapping halogen bulbs w LED ones is complete crap - voltage is different so your truck's computer will either pop up error codes or shut lights out while you are driving at night.. google there are several places that sell complete kits, including those extra wires / boxes (some websites show them optional for another $20 ot so, be sure to buy them)

      @@nicka8583 I changed the light to a different brand an lower wattage and they have been working perfectly since I wrote this message. I went form a 55 watt per light to 30 watt per light and all is good. Here are the ones I went with for both headlights and fog lights. It ahs been three months and no issues. I also do a lot of night driving and they are good to go. The other ones, the flickering began with in a few days.

      So I had these lights for about a year maybe two and I've had no issues until yesterday it started flickering like crazy I felt soo embarrassed going to work in the morning people thought I was flashing them, they will eventually flicker but I guess they make a anti flicker harness for our trucks I'm going to order it soon. I'll be dam if I go back to oem headlights.

    • @Tomraines
      @Tomraines Рік тому

      At that point, you’re better off just trying to take the entire headlamp out and manually disconnecting it. That process in itself takes a while and it’s really relying on you not breaking any of the plastic.
