Getting HIDs have a few questions
So I'm about to take the leap to HIDs with the DDM Tuning slim ballast kit with the lifetime warranty. I'm getting the 35 watt but I'm still deciding between 6k and 8k...I'm trying to get a bright white with a noticeable blue aura. But my main question is will I need any kind of wire harness or relay? I've heard lots of people say they hooked it up just how it is and have had no problems but I just want to make sure. I'm running an Optima red top battery if that makes a difference. Oh and to double check I will need a 9006 bulb for the low beams correct?

I just ordered the ddm tuning kit with the 9006 bulbs in 55watt.
will i need a relay harness?
Also what are you guys using for your high beams and fogs?
i have a 95 z28 FYI

high beams leave stock. HID's take a long time to warm up and would be pointless as high beams.
I don't remember what lt1 cars use for fogs..
If you're going 55w on either the headlights OR foglights you will definitely want an upgraded wiring harness (one for each set of lights.)

for the fogs you want to go witha 35 watt or i've read u run the risk of the assembly getting to hot and damaging it. i just put the 880 6000k kit fro ddm in last night and the look just as good as my low beam kit. low beams i went with a full plug and play kit from thehidfactory.com....only $80 n free overnight shipping
