Default HID Help!!! Newbie

Hello,

Purchased my 2013 F150 Ecoboost 3 years ago. First Ford, usually a GM guy. On my GM trucks I could literally plug the ballast into the stock headlight plug and I always ran DDM in my cars, bikes with no problem. I am seeing people talk about having to run Canbus? Relays? Etc... DDM HID's are priced well, seeing if anyone has any input on what to do here? Or what I need to order. And do we still have function of the Hi/Lo? All my GM's were separate headlights. Thanks!!!

Don't forget TRS(The Retro Fit Source).

Where is MGD, threads like this are usually a duck call for him.
