Default 2013 OEM HID Adapting harness answers

I've been getting an overwhelming amount of emails stating on where to ground and route the harness. So here's a quick video to show how it's installed, and if anyone has any questions feel free to post it on here for others to see.

I have a 2013 that came with regular halogen lights, I just bought a pair of OEM HID lamp assemblies, will I need an adapter harness for it or will my factory harness plug right into them?

Update to all that have ordered an adapting harness,, trs pushed back the backorder date to the 15th, as they are upgrading the harness somewhat with heavier gauge wiring and a new connection for the relay control pack. Which was duely needed for an upgrade, sorry for any delay guys!

I gotta wonder what's going on with this elusive harness when I see an ebay for TRS and they say they have more than 10 available and only 3 sold.







I sent them a question about the harness but haven't received a reply yet.

I removed the ebay link because I don't know if that's allowed here, (The Retrofit Source) is easily searchable on ebay.

They have to keep a reserve of some harnesses just for emergency, warranty claims or ebay I'm sure, but the majority of resellers for trs have to wait

So I take it that is the correct harness for going from H13 to HID for a 2013 truck?
