      Hey, guys, it's Sara with americantrucks.com. And today, we have a review and install the Version 2 Light Bar DRL Projector Headlights with a Black Housing and Clear Lens, fitting your '09 to '18 RAM 1500 without the factory projectors. These are perfect for the RAM owner who's looking to upgrade their headlights and wants an option with modern black styling and LED accents. These projector-style headlights include H1 and H7 high and low beam bulbs, as well as bright white daytime running light bars. In addition, they also reuse your factory amber marker lights. They're constructed from a clear lens and black housing, so they're durable as well as legal for on-road use. And they feature a projector-style low beam, as well as a reflector-style lens for the high beam. So, with this headlight, you get the best of both worlds. So, as far as price goes, this option comes in at around $550 for the pair, which is middle of the road price-wise when compared to other options. And for your money, you are getting a projector-style headlight with a modern black design and LED accents.And as far as the install goes, I'm giving this one a two out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter. It does feature a direct bolt-up install, but some minor wiring is required for install. All in all, it can be done within one hour. So, with that said, let's check out the installation. For this install, we use an electric ratchet, but a regular hand ratchet will work just fine, you'll also need a 10-millimeter socket. And for the wiring portion, we use a crimping tool, as well as some spade connectors and a heat gun. All right. So, the first step in our uninstall with the hood popped off, we're going to remove four 10-millimeter bolts that hold in our grille. With all of your bolts removed from the top of the grille, you can grab it and pull it straight back towards you to release the clips. With the grille removed, you can now remove the two bolts holding on your headlight. We're starting with the one up top here. With your 10-millimeter socket and we're using a ratchet, go ahead and remove it. And also remove the bolt at the bottom of your headlight.All right. Now, at this point, there is one more thing you need to do in order to release this headlight. Inside the wheel well, there is a clip that you have to pull up to release. We'll show you that in a second. Once you've reached through and pulled it upwards, you can now pull your headlight straight out. With the headlight released, you can now remove both clips. Pull back on the red tab, press down, and remove it. There's one more towards the back of your headlight. Pull back on the red tab, press down, and remove it. Now, I wanted to show you the tab at the back of the headlight you have to release. You can see my hand here, it's coming in through a trap door in the wheel well liner. And to release it, you'll push it up or you can pull up from the top part. So, this is the open position when you can remove your headlight. And when you go to reinstall, you'll be pressing down on this to lock your new headlight in place. So, before we can install our new headlight, what we have to do is transfer over the marker light from your factory. We're going to take the whole housing as well as the bulb. So, I suggest throwing a set of gloves on or just be careful not to touch the bulb itself. You're going to twist this out of the housing and take the entire piece. Now, you can line up the connector on your new headlight, line up the tabs, and then twist it in place.All right. So, we have to do one more thing before we can install this headlight. There are two wires that we have to give power and ground. This power's your LED bar. So, what we're going to do is attach some connectors here so we can attach it to the truck. So, there are a lot of different ways to wire this up. As long as the red wire is getting power and the black one is getting ground, this LED bar will work. What I'm going to do here is use a spade connector. That way, if you ever have to pull your headlight, these disconnect from the one that we'll use on the truck. You can hardwire this, you can solder it, or you can use a vampire clip for a little bit of a speedier install. We also have the heat shrinkable version here just to make sure we're keeping moisture out so we don't run into any problems. Now, we're twisting the end of these wires, sliding them in the connector itself to make sure it goes all the way in. And then I'm using a crimping tool, and we're going to crimp this down. Double-check that you have a good connection. Do the same thing for the ground wire. All right. Once they are both neatly attached, we have a heat gun here. We are going to heat-shrink this to make sure no moisture gets into our wire. Repeat that for the power wire. I am moving this around so that it melts evenly. Make sure that you're careful not to hang out in one spot too long because you don't want to burn the actual wire.Once it shrink down properly, we can let them cool for a few seconds and get them installed. All right. We have the two connections that we made earlier right here. We're going to start by plugging these in. Now, you can attach these wherever you like. What I'm going to do is tap into the marker light harness, which if you notice on our truck has already been done. In order to do this, you just repeat the same process we just did. You're going to tap into each one of these wires and attach a spade connector. The only difference being these are female and we have our male spade connectors ready. Now, on our truck, this white wire with a brown stripe is the power wire. So, we'll be connecting our red power wire to this one. If you're not sure, you can use a voltmeter and turn your running lights on, and that will tell you which one is your power wire. You just put the voltmeter onto your wires and see which one lights up. Next up, we're connecting our ground wire to the black one on this harness. And finally, we can plug in the rest of our connectors. Starting with the marker light connector, plug it in on the far side of your headlight and make sure you press down on the red tab. Next up, the main harness connector, same process, plug it in, press down on the red tab.Now, it wouldn't hurt to route your wires as neatly as possible, maybe throw a zip tie or two on there. Now, we can line up our headlight on the truck. Now, we're looking for that metal post at the back of the headlight. We're also looking to make sure that our plastic post that goes in that white plastic connector is lined up as well. And then we're going to press it into place. Now, you can line up your headlight and re-install the factory hardware. We're starting with the top mounting point here, go ahead and thread it in. And with your 10-millimeter socket, tighten it down. Moving on to the bottom mounting point, repeat that by installing your factory hardware. And with your 10-millimeter socket, tighten it down. Last step, we need to reach through the wheel well, find that white tab, and press down on it to lock our headlight in place. Then we're going to close this window in your wheel well liner. Line up your push clip and press it into place. All right. Now that we have our factory headlight uninstalled from our truck, we can check it out side by side with our new headlight here.So, as you can see, design-wise, these are very different from one another. Our new headlight features a more modern and blacked-out style when compared to the factory. It features of black housing and also some LED accent bars to really give you an updated look to your front end. In addition, I wanted to point out an interesting feature about our headlight that's a little different from factory. For our low beam, it features a projector-style lens, which means you get a brighter and more focused beam of light when compared to a reflector-style that you see on the factory. However, for the high beam, you'll notice a reflector-style lens. So, you still keep that factory functionality of that headlight with some updated design. With that said, let's go ahead and finish up that install by repeating all of those steps to install your passenger side headlight. All right. With both of our headlights installed, we can now install the grille. Line up the plastic piece on the bottom and line up all four of your brackets up top. Press it into place. Now, you can line up all of your brackets up top and install the four factory bolts in the top of your grille. Grab a 10-millimeter socket, go ahead and tighten them down. Repeat that for the rest of your mounting points.All right. So, that is going to do it for the review and install of these headlights. And remember for all things RAM, keep it at americantrucks.com.
