DDM Tuning HIDs FTW Finally got to install my DDM HID kits this week. I have a 35W 5000k kit for both my low beams and fog lights. Installation was easy and I even ran a relay harness for the low beams as recommended. These lights are awesome and totally worth the price that DDM charges (I paid $70 for two kits and a wire harness). The 5000k bulbs are very bright and have a very slight hint a blue to them that doesn't quite come out in the pictures. I never realized how out of alignment my headlights were until I put these in (I did re-aim them). Here are some crappy pics,
how long did they take to get them to you after ordering? I have to return a defective ballast to them and was curious as to how long they are taking to ship product lately.....last time it was well over a month.

I was planning on going 35W 5,000K (pure white) for both my lows and fogs as well. I just never got around to it and am still waiting out on some projectors. In all honesty, it looks very OEM (which is what I was hoping and looking for).

jrhartman, I do not have any idea how long they took to be delivered. I ordered these in March while I was in Iraq, and had them waiting for me when I got home.

yeah i live in a valley with lots of fog and they are great.
i would definitely stay with the 35w kit. the 55w kit is more for motorcycles that need high output for such a small reflector housing. 55w is also incredibly, overkill status bright. i woul also stick between 4300k and 6000k on the color temperature. any lower is yellow and any higher is stupidly blue and the light output fades considerably.

So what did the relay harness buy ya in functionality?
