    HID Question

    I've been looking into getting an HID kit for my lights that I'm going to be putting on my car. But I don't know which site that I can trust that has good products that will last long and doesn't have a high rate of failure.

    So for any of you who have bought an HID kit from a website or even local, lemme' know!

    Thanks and Merry Christmas

    I've been running a h.i.d kit from ddm tuning for a couple years no problem. The only down side is the shipping time took a couple weeks.

                ddm tuneing, the digital slim 55w ballasts are the way to go. A LOT brighter and fire up faster

                  the ballasts on the first site in the kits are like small bricks! ancient!

                    Sweet thanks for all the options guys. I haven't heard that good of stuff about DDM. Just that they are a cheap product.

                    Austin, sounds good dude. I'll hit u up next week for sure. I would rather get something local than shipping.

                      DDM makes shitty products and does not stand behind their product. I can get you a quality HID with a warranty. A little more expensive then DDM, but well worth it. My Dad's been running a set in his truck for about 2 years now with no complaints of any kind.

                        Sweet. What kind are they? And how much will they be?

                              I have bought multiple sets of H.I.D. kits from DDM, for about $48 including shipping. The ones purchased have been, the 35w 6000k which give you that clean white fluke of light, almost making it look like a new style stock bulb output.

                              You can get brighter, for a little more money but this way you won't look a douche blinding on coming traffic.
