Default HID headlight/ fog lights

I was going to buy a kit for both lights from ledgauges.com and now I can't seem to buy them. I think their site is down for maintenance. Does anybody know where I can buy a good, dependable set of HID lights? Thank you in advance for your help.

I think there are for sure cheaper places...have you searched yet? Since I'm a LT1 car not sure hows selling them for LS cars. Search your bulb type on ebay...I've used them in my CTSV with good luck.

^ x2 on DDM Tuning. They have mixed reviews but I personally haven't experienced any pain with them.

It's STILL apparent that nobody uses the search on this site... Sigh...

Does it bother you that much? I'd rather get info from the actual users of products. I feel that gives me a better insight.

bright white is 5000K. i installed them in my fogs/lows. (lows are a bit blueish though due to the headlight housing) Pics below.

here is a comparison pic of the driver side headlight with the HID conversion done. and the passenger side still factory. (fogs were already completed, months before)



here is with both of the low beams done and the fog lights done (which were installed several weeks ago)

My 5000k is extremely white, I don't see any blue after it warms up.. 3000k will be a yellow, 4500 will have a white-yellowish tint.. I can't get pictures to show the true color, the blue shows up in the picture..




This is just my foglights on.. I guess these pics show the light color better

I recently found out about the LMC housing and DDM HID's. I ordered both for the lows and fogs and got them in a week. or less from both suppliers Haven't installed yet, but looks good. I'll be happy if I get the results above.

Thanks for the pics. It makes my decesion that much easier. 5000k looks really good. I still have to decide if I want to go for 5k or 6k. If anybody has 6k pictures. I'd love to see them. Thanks again.
