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.

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

sleepyalero 03-18-2011 03:40 AM

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

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:

jhubbz 03-18-2011 12:39 PM

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.

RisenequinoX 03-18-2011 01:20 PM

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.

robalero 03-18-2011 03:15 PM

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

RisenequinoX 03-19-2011 06:18 PM

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

Christato71 03-19-2011 09:12 PM

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.

jhubbz 03-19-2011 09:48 PM

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

Christato71 03-19-2011 10:19 PM

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

RisenequinoX 03-19-2011 10:26 PM

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
