Finally installed the Sierra Spec HID kit from TRS and it exceeds everything I expected. I put in the 35w 5000k kit and although some people on this forum had me worried that they wouldn't be bright enough, it was the exact opposite. My wife has an Acura TL with HIDs and mine are much brighter. I'm sure that you can get even brighter if you change out the projectors and go for a custom 55w kit but the quality, simplicity and performance of this kit get the job done. For $200 and maybe an hours worth of work, I upgraded my headlights with the TRS HID kit and VLED 5000k fog lights and this trucks lights are now exactly what I would expect from a $50k truck!

 

Anyone looking for a simple upgrade that is reasonable priced, go with TRS!

Everyone agrees about the functionality of the kit, its the problems that come with it that are the issues. I hope yours work flawlessly for a long time!

Hi everyone. With the issues people have had with the Morimoto ballasts, I was wondering if anyone has tried taking one apart and potting it like one would with a Denso to keep the moisture out?

Ordered my Morimoto 50W 5500K kit today. Hoping for a decent match to my DRLs and keeping my fingers crossed for good quality and install goes problem free!!

I think they are waterproof to begin with. The potting shouldn't make any improvements

Okay, I was just wondering with how a lot of people complain that they don't last long, and hearing about moisture problems. I'm thinking about doing the amp oem denso hid kit with the ballast potted, hope that it will last longer than a year, or two.

So for those who have done a projector retrofit in a Sierra, where did you hook the 2 red wires coming from the FXR projector? I believe it's to pull the shield down to activate the high beams. I'm sure it's self explanatory once you are in the housing but I'd like to make sure I have all info I can before I open my headlights

On the side of the OEM projector, there is a plug for the same function. Tap into those.

Exactly. Silverado people have to take the signal from our highs, but you have a circuit just for that function.

Check the polarity and function before you button (glue) it up.

Those pins will shove right into the oem projector plug. Wrap on heat shrink or some electeic tape though.

Potting? do you mean putting the whole thing in a water tight enclosure?
