Ok I dont want to take this thread off topic, But after doing reading on here im seeing all these threads about H4, H7 setups yada yada. I live in the country, my headlights suck, I will be getting the LMC housings but want to do the HID's now. So if I get this kit from DDM with 9006 bulbs for lows and 9005 for highs your telling me its as simple as removing and intalling the bulb and wiring the ballast?

And the DDM 880's fit in the fogs as well? and a 9005 55w I assume is for Highs and 35w for fogs?... Sorry to do this but might as well get all the info in the thread.

yes the fog lights are type 880 , i recommend leaving the high-beams with the bulbs that come with the housings.. plus 55w might not be a good idea since they are non projector style housings . 35w low-beams will be a great improvement without a doubt.. our stocker are only around 1000 lumens , while the HID's are over 3000 lumens ..

The lmc housings are awesome! Very easy to install and a HUGE improvement over stock, even without the HIDs. Here's mine with the stock 9006 bulbs. Haven't done the HIDs in the headlights yet, just the fogs.

You can make them work. My buddy put some in his FD. The projectors are from a lexus I think so with a little work you can get them to fit in the housings. I just was wondering if you guys were blinding everyone while driving lol. I get flashed all the time because apparently my lights are too bright and they are just the stockers. They aren't aimed too high or anything. They are dead on perfect. I just flip my brights on and it's like the sun ha ha. It makes people feel stupid.

So to make sure, the appropriate parts to do this conversion are:
From LMC truck (their search engine leaves much to be desired)
2x 36-0302 OUTER
2x 36-0303 INNER
From ddmtuning:
3x DDM HID Kit Slim Ballast at 35w.
lows @ 9006s
highs @ 9005s
fogs @ 880
Does anyone have a picture of where they mounted the Ballasts and the splicing? Outstanding information BTW. I have wanted something like this for awhile without shelling out ridiculous sums of money.

You sure you want to have HID's in the high? I just went with fogs,and lows. Remember HID's take a little bit to "warm up", example if you were to "flash" your highs they wouldn't have enough time to fully turn on and "flash"
As to your original question yes those are the correct part numbers.
