Default LED headlight conversion
I am about to purchase the Truck lite 7" LED headlight and the 2 LED passing light kit, and my question is do I need any other adapting ring or anything like that?

Secondly, I cant seem to find the part # in a previous post for the harness which allows the passing lights to stay on while the high beam is on.

Thanks

The lights will go in like the old ones. Many people add the headlight trim ring just for cosmetic purposes. Not sure of the part number for that harness but it should be easy to find in the on-line P&A catalog.

Eastern performance has the harness and the best price on the lights.

You don't need a new trim ring, but the TL will stick out a little bit. You can get the Frenched trim ring, but you still use the original ring. The new ring slips over the old ring and tightens down.

Get some type of trim ring for the headlight. Looks goofy without it. French, Visor, or Halo all will work.

I believe you get a 5% forum discount at Eastern which would put the price at 345.

Kuryakyn number for the passing lamp harness is KA5496. Taken from Eastern Performance web site

Are these LED or HID? I don't see where it says LED.

Thanks
