Need to buy HIDs asap. I have been searching and been finding threads about best hid conversion kits. Answers have been leaning towards Meng, but I have read other strong suggestions for the other two. Could you simply post the name of the ones you have including wattage and kelvins and a picture. I'm sure this would help me and a lot of other people!!

 

The best kit's are Philips, Denso, and Matsush(i)ta. All of the $50 PnP kits are pretty much the same. I'm tempted to lock this thread because there really is no correct answer and it's been discussed enough already.

 

Might want to look at these links if you want to do it right the first time around, or just buy the cheapest (DDM Raptor) slap them in and be done with it. Though you may find the color temp to be off and they run hotter or even better yet one runs twice as bright. Spent alot time and money to come to the conclusion of buying quality projectors, ballasts and bulbs.

I have DDM. Good price for $40 with slim ballast. BUT NO customer service!!! and takes 2 weeks to arrive from China.

 

Thanks knowing that it ships from China is a no go and no customer service just completely deters me.

 

My ddm set came in about a week. Though their customer service is crap. I have ddm in my 1st gen tc and also on my low and high of my gsxr600. Alot better product than hidextras crappy product. But if you want really good hid kits go with theretrofitsources 3five kit.

 

Found this pic...does a really good job on kelvin comparisons...

 

I have Meng heavy duty ballasts and the relay hooked straight to the battery. I have had 0 issues and the ballasts are the perfect size to hide under the hood! a little more expensive but possibly last you longer as well and the 8k's i use are perfect shade of blue!
