ummm, this might be off topic,

but i have a set of hids in my lows, and a set of hids in my highs.
i have 4 ballasts, and rewired my headlights under the hood with relays powering the ballasts directly from the batteries.

what do you have in mind?


im sure risen would like more info on that.. i also think we all would.. :p

I was thinking of trying a different set of projector fogs from a different car.... That or just get some LEDs and put them in the housings I have now

either or would be cool.

you have to change that rubber at the bottom of the light to a smaller one and they fit perfectly fine. you need the black or blue one and it fits the red rubber like shown is for 9006

Would you need a wiring harness/relay? i would only think that if you were running the fogs and lo's with HID's. i don't think it would matter if you ran lo's/hi's because they can't be ran at the same time (without mod)... but thats just my thought



In my headlight the hole is smaller where the 9005 goes and the plastic that goes into that hole is too big too fit, its not the o-ring.

i have the relays so that the hids get direct power from the battery, and they also make the highs and lows on at the same time. you would not want hids and have them turn off when you go back to high, might be scary until they got bright again.

and i bought a 9005 hid kit, and a 9006 hid kit from ddm tuning. they just twisted in the socket like a regular bulb. i believe i made a post previously about this with a wire diagram on how my relays are hooked up

i'll try and find that post, if you can find it do you mind linking it?

Got my kit in today. A LOT smaller than I thought it would be! I like it! Now I just need my fiancee to get her butt home so I can install it! :D

Crud...it's giong to be a while before they get the 55w back...

I would just get the 35 Watt.... There's really no significant difference from what I can tell... Other than the lights are brighter and "more annoying" to oncoming traffic. :lol:

At least they are using chinese labor instead of japanese labor or else we would NEVER get em....... wow i'm going to hell, but sounded funny in my head.

I'm a sick person. and I need help.

out of nowhere!

funny though. i'm sick too i guess.

i will see tomorrow when i get my bulbs in how they look in the hi's.

there is a HUGE difference between 35 kits and 55 kits. I love my 55's much more then my 35's or the 35's in the girlfriends neon or her fathers little s10 that I put my old 35 in's. the 55's just give more light

got the hi's installed today i'll try to get some night pics later.

Well since ddm isn't selling the 55 watts as of right now, I'm thinking about getting the 35 watts in either 5000k or 6000k. I can't decide lol.

6k all the way! They're the perfect blend of white light with just a hint of blue. You won't be sorry

6k it is then! How bright are the 35 watts?

here are some pics with the brights:

the 35's look okay, but the color is the best, not too blue but like LED white

Are those 55w in your pictures?

No, I have 6000k 35w in both hi's and li's. Once my hi's "charge" up they work pretty good

Do you have any pictures of what comes in the ddm hid package?

posted this earlier. others were saying it came with 3m tape but i did not receive any. I didn't even get any instructions but i already knew how to install them...

I have two sets of ballasts, DDM and JLM. I would recommend the DDM over the other ones now that i have them installed.

none of them come with instructions as they have it online I think.

ill take pics of my 55 watt kit of how it is at night with low beams tonight

i got 3m tape as well as some zip ties in my kit. :D

It doesn't seem to hard to get these set up.

Yeah its really easy just wear gloves and try not to touch the bulb

but if you do have any questions we're all here to help.

Same here.

and you might need to put the connector upside down but thats nothing new to anyone with aftermarket HID's

I know that DDM doesn't say you need a wiring harness for the 35w ballasts, but i think i need one because they have a hard time charging when my lights selector is on "Auto". i have to actually turn them on for the HID's to charge up.

Any thoughts?

what year? mine are fine but mines a 2000

heres the pictures of my 55 watt 8k kit at night ( remb 8k 55 watts make it seem like 6k's ) I tried my best with the camera but she is a little old now so here they are anyways this is what I see on low beams at night on a dark road with no other lights.

Damn those look good. Should of gotten the 55's while I had a chance.

they are much better then the 35 watt kits, mind you there is nothing wrong with 35 watt kits I just really like the 55 watt one better

Rob do you have hot spots with those?

wow very nice!

yes I do have hot spots, but it doesn't bother me any its only slightly there and it helps when aligning the headlights ( but so do the bubbles too ).

I have ran these lights for a couple hours non stop and the headlight itself isn't as hot as a regular bulb would be you can touch the lense and its warm don't get me wrong but not so hot you have to remove your hand from it right away

Just installed mine yesterday. They look really nice and didn't have any problems mounting the ballasts. I did notice some flickering of the light when they first turn on and warm up, but once they are at their full brightness, I don't get the flickering. Other than that, I'm quite happy with them, and I'll be getting some for my Tmax as well. :)

hey cavaliers you mind taking pics, like at night and/or where you mounted. I now have 4 ballasts and its a nightmare with just zipties. i want to get some more ideas of where to mount but still have easy access
