To get the best output from your lights follow these 5 directions to a tee.
1. Completely remove headlights from the truck (make sure to not scratch the truck when removing them)
2. Remove current bulbs from lights
3. Use Recon lights as bookends, steps tools, paper weights, etc.
4. Contact Ducat
5. Install new bitchin lights
Congratulations in those 5 easy steps you have now turned your lights into something that can be used to see better at night

Haha that was funny. Putting aside Recon's ****** quality, If you look at your headlights, only the dims are actually projectors. The high beams are your typical halogens. Usually H1's. If you're looking for better light out of them, you need better halogen bulbs. I think another thread mentioned a Phillips Xtreme (or something like that) that was essentially the best halogen out there, or you can go with Silverstar Ultra's. Don't get the ones with the blue tint, as that just dims the lumen output. But as Maxx said, if you want to have drastically better night vision on high/low, you need to check out Ducati's retrofits.
hahaha, that is hilarious. Actually the first set of heads I ever retro'd was a set of recons. 
My heads are more expensive but ask anyone who owns them... you get what you pay for - http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f189/4-sale-bi-xenon-projector-retrofit-headlights-10156/#post139352

If you ordered HID's, then the H1's are the high beams. The HID bulbs go in the low beam projectors.
Im confused??? The kit came with one set of bulbs. Do they go in the high beam or the low beam?
In my humble opinion. RECON SUCKS.......
well maybe not so humble..
