Ram headlight replacement recommendations

[HairyScandinavian]

I have a crack in one and condensation in the other, looking to replace the whole modules not just the bulbs. They're dim too so I want an upgrade in brightness but I don't want to drive around blinding other drivers. Anybody got recommendations for a setup that's brighter but projects correctly and not bright-lighting everyone on the road?

When looking you want to type in "Full Replacement head lights" We have a 98 Dodge same way half the time a match would be brighter. I just haven't gotten around to paying the money for a full new set.
We had busted up all the mirrors finally typed in full replacement and found something that works and you can see out of. I wasn't paying the $1,000 they wanted for the same thing that broke and died.

Ford headlights.

They come free with the truck.

What year truck do you have? Rough budget?

Good looking out, thank you. Adding "full" to my searches really helped weed out a lot of clutter.

lol I can't afford that much of a headlight replacement! I'd like to get it done as inexpensively as possible, right now looking at a set of full replacement LED assemblies for $300 but it's Amazon chinesium for sure. I probably won't go over $400 without good reason but the less the better.

Honestly... Those can be pretty decent if you take the time to adjust them.

Amazon return policy is also great, I wouldn't be scared to get a set and try them.

I would go with factory replacements.

Ebay has led kits reasonable prices plug and play.

Whatever you do, avoid plugging LED bulbs into incandescent(halogen) reflector bodies.
That is exactly the obnoxious oncoming blinding you're trying to avoid.

I went ahead and ordered those $299 Amazon full replacement buckets. I'll let yall know how it goes.

2016, it's a 2500 if it matters.

Yeah I got the whole assemblies. This one is LED and had a cutoff on top so the light has a straight line on the top with low beams. Seems like it could work out well if I do my part to adjust them correctly so oncoming traffic is above the line in the dark spot. High beams look like a spotlight in the middle.

Let us know how you like them. I replaced my 18 2500 with some of the entry level Alpha Rex and absolutely hate them.
