ddm tuning hid kits

[miles5241]

anyone ever use the ddm tuning hid kits? cause they seem really cheap but they have a life time warranty and the company deals with tuning bmw's? they have to be somewhat decent then right? http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/DDM-HID-Kit-Slim-Ballast-35W-or-55W
also 55w or 35w?

There's another thread in here for that. I've heard nothin bad about DDM. That's what I'm gonna go with when I get mine done. You wanna go 35w, unless you really want to piss people off. I'm getting some 5000k's but that's just my preference.

DDM Tuning sells good stuff. I have a set of their HIDs and love 'em.

35w is all you'll need. 35w HIDs are many times brigher than your stock halogens. 55w HIDs are just total overkill unless you're using them in an auxiliary lighting capacity.

When it comes to color temperature, the whiter the better. OEM HIDs are all around 4300K, so keep that in mind when choosing. The higher the Kelvin (K) temperature, the bluer the light. The bluer the light, the less useable light you get from them. When you get into the 8000K+ temps, you're also getting so blue that you'll be looking a possible legal issues too.

I would also recommend the relay harness for your truck. DDM calls it the "dual in/dual out harness."

I would also suggest a hi-4 relay as well.

I love my DDM HIDs. Get the relay like he said.

I thought the relay harness was only for the 96+ trucks, I thought someone said that on the 95s and under, they got by without the harness. What is the "dual in/dual out" for?

I've installed them on my '91 and '94 without the harness and haven't had any issues, but it's a good idea to have the harness on all of our trucks. It's just cheap piece of mind.

I dunno. That's just what DDM calls their relay harness.

I assume it stands for 2 lights in/2 lights out.

I run the ddm kit and it is a great kit. I had a relay go already in my harness but I think some coolant actually leaked on it and that's what did it in. I would definitely recommend them as I've had good experience with them.
