INSTALLATION DOCUMENTS
Complete 9012 HID Kit: If you've been looking for a complete one-stop-shop kinda kit to run HIDs, this one from GTR Lighting has been painstakingly designed to optimize performance and reliability. High-quality materials are everywhere and the output is exceptional from the Ultra Series HID bulbs. Expect it to impress all your friends.
The Pinnacle: One of the HID bulbs that put GTR Lighting on the map was this, the Ultra Series. It provides a seriously powerful upgrade to anyone looking to go from halogen to HID.
Precision: One of the hardest things to do in HID lighting is to get the alignment of the bulb itself in the halogen-based housing. Without that, no amount of tweaking and modification is going to get you proper lighting. Thankfully, GTR went to painstaking lengths to ensure an absolutely perfect alignment with the Ultra Series. Each and every bulb is laser aligned into the housing and checked for fitment before it leaves the factory.
Materials: To ensure that alignment doesn't go to waste, GTR uses the best Philips UV Resistant Quartz available. It won't dim and fade fast like lesser alternatives. It comes standard with insulated wiring to make the connections from your AMP style connectors to your ballast as though this harness came from the factory itself. No cutting, no soldering, no splicing. Just plug-n-play performance.
Benchmarking: GTR Lighting didn't design a ballast with simply their own product in mind, they built it to outperform the best of the best in the business. That's why you'll appreciate that the Ultra Series HID Ballast is quieter the competitors while also providing a lighting quick ignition of intense brightness in just .1 seconds with complete power in only 9 seconds. The assembly itself is built to handle the roughest trails, tracks, and weather you can throw at it. This ballast is the complete package.
Installation Ease: Coming in at an incredible compact 2.75x3.5 inches, thisballast is small enough to fit almost anywhere and has complete mounting hardware as well as a grounding strap included.
Flicker Free & No More Bulb Out: Thanks to intelligent Canbus integration technology and an ASIC controller, these ballasts can handling pulsed width voltage or even a complex Canbus circuit. By leveraging those innovations you'll never get lamp out warnings, bulb out warnings, or flickering lighting. GTR really did think of everything.
Body: The high-quality materials will have you proud of your purchase too. The harness itself is 13 inches long, providing more than ample installation flexibility. The body of the ballast is shockproof to handle all of the roads' bumps and bruises, and the outer layer of the wiring loom is fitted with abrasion-resistant mesh so you can count on this ballast to have no weak links.

5000k worked amazing. System was slim enough to fit right in the back plate and installed in 20min.
It don't work for 2015
by keith aquino -
Instruction should be a little bit more detailed as far as it not working for 2015 Ram 1500 models. It Turned off on me in the middle of the freeway. Use the morimoto wiring harness for ram with this product if you're going to install it on a 2015 ram 1500 models. But other than that awesome light.
This headlight kit was easy
by Landon Lunsford -
This headlight kit was easy to install. I haven't had it in very long but so far everything is working great. I did purchase the relay harness which took a while to install It the right way. It would be nice to have a video from HR on how to install the relay to make it easier. Other than that everything is great quality.

GTR 55w HID conversion kit
by John Twilley
2013 Ford Explorer. I also tried Amazon LEDs on my Explorer, trying to improve the horrible halogen projectors in this vehicle. Seriously, this Explorer has the worse stock headlights I've ever seen. The LEDs helped, but faded out and burned out a few leds chips
Took about 45 minutes to install, as the right bulb wasn't as good as the left side. And I tinkered a bit trying to get it perfect...never did. Then I hit the road, and Holy Cow!!
These lights are amazing. I'm pretty sure the projectors in this Explorer aren't the best. The samples in the videos has nicer projectors. I could swap them to see it it follows the headlight, but after driving and seeing the results I won't bother. Very bright lights! I adjusted them so I don't blind anyone. I was planning to add new projector fog units, as I don't have fog or snow in Tampa, but now there's no need. I'll just add Yellow LED fog lights.
Can't believe I didn't buy these when I got the Explorer. $40,000 Explorer. $299 for headlights in order to drive safely? AND a lifetime warranty. AND fantastic service reps (looking at you Jake) and support?! What are you waiting on?
There was a little confusion about UPS saying I'm getting a shipment from THE RETROFIT SOURCE. But the box was labeled Headlight Revolution. Must be owned by the same company? Worked for me, as it shipped from Atlanta to Tampa in 2 days.
Thank You Headlight Revolution!!!
But Please do a video/test with a 2011-2018 Ford Explorer!
Awesome

Have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee. My wife hated the headlights, way too dim! Looked around and found HR. Installed them (very easy) and it is literally a night and day difference!! Very happy, mostly because my wife is very happy!!
Plug and play
by David McMurray -
Lights work perfectly and were plug and play. They are really bright and a true 6000k diamond white. I have led fog lights and they match perfectly in color. (05 Pontiac GTO)
Had some amazon led in
by Daniel Powers -
Had some amazon led in before and these blew them out off the water in every way. Eventually when the bulbs burn out I'll go from 8k to 6k for a color closer to that of the suns.
Extremely Bright!
by Jackson Leung
I have an '18 Toyota Highlander with horrible stock halogen lights. I've been looking around for better lighting options, and initially I tried LEDs for my low beams but they still didn't perform well enough due to the projector lens. The staff at HR highly recommended this GTR 55w HID kit, and I must say it is a vast improvement over anything I had before. I tried different temperature bulbs, but long story short I called HR due to some bulb issues (different colors within the pair, maybe defective pair, etc.). The bulbs I have now are 6000k, and the light output is diamond white with a blue hue. Not only is the output super bright, I love the color because it gives a hint of blue. HR customer service is excellent as they were extremely helpful via email and phone, and they sent me new bulbs within a week. They really want to be sure their customers are happy and taken care of.
Some things to note. The bulbs can run very hot. HR told me stock housings are high quality and can withstand high heat, so I'll be monitoring my lights regularly. I've read other customer reviews and I haven't come across any issues though. My low beams require dust covers, so it took a bit of work to use a cone bit to drill just shy of an inch circle like the HR youtube video shows.
Overall, I am very happy with this purchase. I can finally see well at night, especially when I am well outside of the city. I put LEDs in my fog lights and high beams, but I rarely ever use them anymore because my HID low beams are more than adequate. If you are looking for a substantial upgrade for your low beam projectors, this is the kit to get!
