damn. i want plug and play. and plus, im all out of solder.
raikiri, did your HID harness just not fit because of the orange thing in our OEM plug?

I suppose i can try this...but i wouldnt know where to find male/female connectors for our car. unless you cut up the stock ones and connected it to the HID KIT itself?

I don't know first hand, but I have heard from several people that ddmtuning is "the last HID you'll ever need" and other comments like that.

[QUOTE=roblaza;8677289][quote=nashvilleRA;8676573]thanks, dually noted. any reliability issuesI personally think the PIAAs burn out too quick. Almost every PIAA bulb I've had burns out within a year or so.

I think I had that problem on my wife's old Pilot. Basically I pulled the actual plugs from the harness, snipped them to size, plugged them into the other harness "nekkid" and shrink wrapped them. I didn't have a solder at the time so that was my work around. It worked great, but was definitely hacky.

nashvilleRA

hmmm. last i'll ever need? ...sounds good.

and i guess i could just solder everything. but im kinda wary about ruining my wires they send me if my solder job is inadequate or if all i needed was one of their extra wiring harnesses. i guess i could call and find out...

nashvilleRA

...raikiri, where did you mount your ballasts?
or would you happen to have any pictures of the install?

There is someone in this thread with a testimonial of sorts - seems he and a bunch of his friends use DDM tuning HID kits.

I need to finally get out to the car and check the bulb type in the JDM headlight housing. I'm guessing they are the same as USDM, but that is the only thing keeping me from ordering my own set from DDM tuning.

nashvilleRA

awesome. im convinced. now i just need to buy the damn things.
i thought about it, and it will look pretty stupid to have 3000k fogs with xtrabrights up top, so i guess ill have to break out cash for some 6000k's too

if i get one set of fogs and one set of 9007 hi/lo, then it will be $102.83 shipped to nashville.

So these DDM Hid Kits, are Plug n Play for our OEM fog lamps/connectors?

nashvilleRA

thats what they say, but i havent bought them yet.

That thread I linked to earlier now has pics up. They look pretty solid. $35 for a slim ballast design and lifetime warranty sounds good to me!

nashvilleRA

yeah, they look pretty damn good. i am in the process of collecting capitol to buy them. i decided to go ahead and buy headlights and fogs so i can pay one shipping cost

nashvilleRA

ordered 3000k fogs (H3) and 6000k Hi/Lo bulbs (9007) for $101.36 shipped.
that aint too bad
its 35 for any single beam setup, 55 for the 9007 Hi/Lo's.
have at it.
