Regular headlights have one bulb per headlight, sport lights have two bulbs per headlight.

I'm afraid to say you have the wrong headlights for your truck...

Is it possible to covert a regular to a sport? Is it more than Ying the wire at the end? More relays?

It's not that difficult to do the conversion. Many threads on this topic here. You can create your own harness or purchase one pre-made. Well worth it in the end though, as the sport assemblies are nicer than the regular ones.

I am guessing you are asking about a link for the wiring harness? If so, best place to get one pre-made is here:
suvlights.com Dodge Ram (Sport Headlights) Super Heavy Duty Conversion Harness w/4 relays 9004
Seems a bit pricey, but they are well built, and the cost savings to do the job myself wasn't worth it to me.
