I've had some HID's on my tC2 for a while now but it seems like if its not the ballast giving out, its the bulbs. I've purchased a pair from DDM tuning and wasn't satisfied with them. So I purchased another kit from JDMTuning and after 3 months, the ballasts gave out. I was wondering if any of you guys that currently have trouble free HID's would recommend a website for an HID kit. I'm not used to halogens which makes driving at night annoying.

 

ddm tuning will warranty.

I've had zero problems from ddm after 100+f temps, ice storms, floods..etc.

If you send it back, they will send you a new ballast.

 

TheRetrofitSource is great, give them a look. www.theretrofitsource.com

 

I've had DDMs on my car for over a year without any problems. Plus they do have that warranty.

 

Thanks. I had thrown away the receipt since I've always heard they sold great quality products.

Could the wattage have anything to do with it? I have always used the 55w instead of the 35w. I like the brightness they emitted.

 

You can't go wrong with these. They're great quality.

 

+1 for retrofitsource...I won't buy HID's anywhere else ever again.

 

Retrofitssource ^ do they have warranty of any kind and also for a set of 2008 projector light , what is the brightest tempeture i can use , i like white but im not sure on the temperatures . The 2008 projectors im getting are oem not aftermarket.

 

I've always gone with 5000k. This look is very bright and resembles what the BMW's and Mercedes Xenons look. Close up you can tell they are slightly different but from far away, they look pretty identical. I've tried 6000k's and didn't really like the blue tint.

 

i guess one i go projector they will give a different color out there then the normal headlight i have...... i just dont want to loose any light because of temperature thank you

 

Oh you won't lose any light. The BMW uses 4500k's because theyre the brightest so going with 5000k wouldn't be bad. I actually love the color they give with my stock projectors.

 

I have 4300K and love it, just about every auto manufacturer uses that temp for stock.

 

yes but does it look yellow or white

 

Mengmotorsports.com all the way good customer service and great products

 

ive had my set of ddm HIDs for over 3 years and just ordered 2 more sets in which 1 will be going into my fogs

 

I ordered from DDM but didn't like the bulb color so I kept the ballasts and ordered Morimoto bulbs of the same color and they're awesome. You can always order cheaper ballasts from DDM and spend the bigger bucks on the bulbs. My bulbs were 40 but worth it. They look great and they're super bright.
