LED Conversion Confusion, Please Help
I put two h9/h11 led light in my oem housing and it destroyed my daymaker and is a little better than my buddy's tl7. It actually project a better light pattern than the tl in my opinion. Best $100 I spent in years as it is bright enough with low beam only high beam is just awesome.

FWIW a few months ago there was a thread on this subject, and one of the posters who had done some testing found the FuelMoto solution good for the low beam (the high beam LED unit would not physically fit - too long)..another Amazon low beam was also posted. See below.

The high beam solution was suggested.....this; it is shorter in length.
Please keep in mind I am only posting what I read; I have not tried any of this....YMMV.

Update:
I tried 2 different TruckLite 7" bulbs and the high beam didn't come on in either one. I confirmed 12vdc all the way to the light so I have no idea why they wouldn't work unless both lights were defective. I put 2 calls into TruckLite tech help and never got a reply so I returned both lights to amazon.
I am going to try the LEDH9/H11 buld replacements next. If They don't work then I guess HD is gonna get a lump of cash from me.

To the OP I have the same question as you regarding the RK wiring. I found this possible solution.
http://innovativewiring.com/?page_id=4464.
If this isn't the one we need the company says it will make any custom harness.
Disclaimer: I have no actual knowledge ( I haven't done it yet) that this will in fact work but will eventually try it out.
I hope this helps.

@OP, If you have the H9 and H11 connections, do you know you can modify the H9 to fit the H11 socket and plug? The H11 is 45 watt H9 (usually hi beam) is 65 watt. I found this out when going to convert my 16 Tacoma to either HID or LED, it is easy to do, just do a you tube ob h9/h11 conversion. These will give you more light than the LEDs will, and all the light color will match. The LEDs just don't have the depth of field in a reflector housing.
