Anyone know where I can get an h.i.d. kit 6500k for a reasonable price? I bought one on ebay but it never worked for some reason,and the ebay sellers has over 100k positive feedbacks. Thank you, D.J.

 

Friend of mine recommended sharphid.com to me a while back. I will probably try them out once I do the TL Bi-xenon retro since they come with lifetime warranty on their kits. I am currently running an "MKS" hid kit I bought on ebay about 2.5 years ago. I paid 145 back then and thus far I have not had any complaints. *knock on wood*

 

did you check your wiring harness? I had to replace mine before i could use the plug-n-play.

 

I heared DDM HID kits are great. Pretty cheap too. Might want to look into that.

i have hid's from vvme and they work fine, i would recommend getting them from ddm tuning though, as people have good things to say about their kits.
as far as your other kit, it should work, did you try flipping all the plugs one by one 180 degrees? i had to do that for my kit even though it seemed like it was connected the right way the first time i did it.

 

i get all my kits from hidgate on ebay never had any problems with them and have ordered over 10 kits for varous cars. I have a 10k kit on my ac and my 08 300. I love em but 6k would produce way more light than mine. what about your lights did not work. Did you try reversing the polarity of the plug(just switch it around, ah i see ive been beaten to the punch). Kits are usually 60 shipped from the co i go with and 1 year warranty

 

Get a DDM HID kit. My friend has one and it looks great. I unfortunately bought 4 kits from VVME.com and since they're located in China, if you get a defectived one, you're fucked cause they won't ship you another one.

 

Hmm... I have a 98 and I bought a kit for around 40 bucks and that's with shipping included. Thought the deal was to good to be true, but it ended up working perfectly. I'd do some more troubleshooting and buy another kit on ebay from another seller if you can't fix your problem.

 

forgot to say the kits from hidgate are from cali so no over seas waiting takes like 3 days to get ur stuff

lol i was waitin on that one

 

damn you all! I just ended up ordering a 4300k DDM hid kit lol

 

^good choice on K temp and on the brand
did you get a 35w or a 55w?

 

Yeah I didn't want to sacrifice light output by going higher, nor did I really want to have blue headlights (which are cop magnets). I read about the differences online and saw some comparison pics, but the 55w didn't really seem to be worth the extra money and they have a bit more glare so I went with the 35w.

 

never heard about the 55w causing extra glare before but i didn't really research it a lot before i bought HIDs
i'm happy with my vvme kit though, although i would like even more light output, that's why i was looking at the 55w ones now
but i don't really feel like ripping out the ones i have in now, cuz the install of the ballasts and wires is almost exactly what i want, and it looks clean to me

 

55w does cause more glare because of the reflector housing. They are more for projectors from what I have recearched.

 

Correct our reflector housings cause lots of glare

 

just ordered the 55w ddm kit. hopefully everything works out.

 

Let me know how it works out bro. That's the exact kit I'm thinking of getting.

 

Sure thing. Hopefully you'll get to see it in person in a few weeks.

 

^what K bulbs are you getting?

 

6000k. A buddy of mine has 6000k's on his car and I think they look good.

 

Ahh hell yeah! Thats right!
I'll have my projectors finished by then but won't be getting an HID kit till probably next month. I just need 40 more dollerzz!!
I'll bring them with me for sure though, just not on the car.

 

makes the headlights look shiney as fawk tho!

 

 

So do projectors

 

blue being cop magnets? I've got 10k on my ac and my 300 and no problems, and boy do i screw with the cops around here

 

just a friendly warning, 55w ddm is stupid bright. i'm running em through 08 mdx d2s projectors with 85122s (and ddm 35w 3000K h3 in projector fogs down low)... everything focused and cut off proper, so i don't hurt oncoming and it looks oem as hell, but i'll say this: i've got some dark-ass country roads where i live, and the only work my halogen 9005 highbeam bulbs do is keep water out of the housing, lol.

i also put a set of 4300K h7 55w ddms in my girl's tiburon (halogen-focused) projectors, and the spread/depth/beam is simply sick for an h7 halogen projector. and with hers, even though her cutoff is acceptable and she never gets flashed, even a semi-experienced eye can see they are not oem. for the buck, her results are outstanding, though.

55w ddm in reflectors, you'll be giving insta-tans to oncoming -- i think it might be bad enough that you'd get attention. 35w should be plenty in a reflector; if you want to cut glare in a reflector, i believe a d2r bulb would be optimal either way, and imho, likely necessary to keep a ddm 55w charge from becoming a deathray.
perhaps d2r could be rebased to fit a 9006?

 

d2r's are rebased to 9006 all the time

 

not fond of the "spider eyes" look on my car. looks ricey to me.. dunno why

 

i bought a 6k 35watt hid kit from DDM, they are awesome, i have personally seen the 55k, it causes a lot of glare, thats when you will be flashed. but i have had them for about 4 weeks, no flashes from an oncoming car or anything. good luck, and DDM is they way to go imo.

 

Blasphemy!!!

 

cuz u've never seen the cutoff coming from your car

 

 

My kit will be here friday...shipped with Fedex...sweet.

 

10k kit?

 

Yes I paid $60 as well from a seller on ebay in I think China. I put an h.i.d. kit on my 3000gt years ago no problem,but the kit I have now,I evewn tried a different way to work,the guy said theirs a warrantee but I dont wanna spend $40 to ship it back out to him.

 

I got my 4300k kit today and it is BRIGHT. Not too much glare either, but I have to adjust my headlights a tad bit.

 

that's what i have on my car, anything more is just impractical in my opinion.

4k to 6 k with projectors, that's wassup.
