As said earlier please don't be that guy with hids in a non projector housing. Do it right from the start. With that said your gonna have research where to get them. It's all 95% made in china.

All Hids are made in china so any kit you get under $100 is the same quality.
Ddm was a great vendor but lately their products and service are questionable.
There is also a class action lawsuit against them.
I ll be switching to the brand xentec on eBay after i saw my lights compared to my neighbors.

I've been running Xentec hid's for over 3yrs with absolutely no problems.
OP, Just make sure to buy a Relay Harness so you won't fry your stock harness.

on carhidkits.com they say the 6000k is the brightest. which is white. 8000k is the next brightest with blue/white tint. the only problem with getting for example a white headlight and a blue fog light is depending on where u live and the cops, they might not let it fly, thats why i got 8000k all the way around and 30000k purple high beams

I absolutely hate the blue hids. I just purchased the xentec ebay ones for camaro fog lights in 5000k color, glad to find out that they work well. I'm most likely leaving my low beams stock, I hate it when people blind me with them, so I won't do it to them.
Saw a riced out honda with a fart can and green hid lows and fogs...wow what a sight

I cant really comment on whether DDM is still a good place to buy or not, but if they havent changed form when I bought mine, I'd suggest it. Lifetime warranty, and theyre not expensive. I did have to exchange a ballast once, and had a couple small issues but overall, I got a replacement and I think I paid shipping..
