6000K ddm headlights

I just installed my 6000K ddm foglights and they make my headlights look too yellow, can i just install 6000K bulbs with stock ballasts or do i need to get new ballasts also? 07tl

thanx

FWIW,I have NOT been impressed with anything from DDM tuning. I purchased the D2S replacement bulbs @ 6K and a kit for my fogs.

Headlights don't match, and one of the foglight bulbs took a shit within the first 2 weeks. Junk, junk, junk, won't be using them again.

I've also had issues with DDM. I got a low beam and fog kit for my Chrysler and the passenger fog took a shit in the first couple weeks as well. It's been too cold to take the bumper off to see if it's the ballast or the bulb.
