HID Kit Upgrade
I'm thinking about adding HIDs to my car and was wondering where others have bought their kits from. I'd prefer a high quality kit that isn't too bulky that will last a while. Any helpful links would be great!

I've bought quite a few items from these guys already and I'm pleased with their products.

Re: HID Kit Upgrade
Azkicker0027, how long did the kit last? Did either bulb fail to ignite?

Agreed. Ddm has a lifetime warranty and are cheaper than most other hids. I have 2 sets on my em2 for low beam and fog lights. Never had any problems with them.

Re: HID Kit Upgrade
Wow, the slim kit for $40 is an amazing price! I'll give them a try. Btw, we're running an h4 bulb size right?

Re: HID Kit Upgrade
Did you end up spending the extra money for the hi/low beam feature?

Re: HID Kit Upgrade
no i was putting them in my 2004 so i only got low beams since our lo and hi beams are separate

but i wouldnt use the high beams if u got hids for them. hids dont like being flashed on and off

Re: HID Kit Upgrade
I've had my kits for about 3 years now. i did have some igniters/ballasts go out, but they replaced them promptly. the bulbs themselves are still the original ones.
